Silliest Way You've Cut Your Hand REALLY Badly !!

One of my best was....

Tip of my finger cut off - electric hedge trimmer. Not sure how my hand got in there, but it cut right through the bone. And the trimmer is not quite as shaving sharp as one of my Busses - for sure... I even had my wife call the EMTs. (ya - it was that bad) But the doc got it re attached and its now back on. For real! :)
 
I stabbed myself pretending to stab myself.

I was showing off in front of my mum when I was a kid and misjudged horribly.

Thankfully the knife hit a rib. It could have been so much worse.

I nearly qualified for a Darwin award that day.
 
I was doing dishes and trying to clean a sturdy coffee stain from the bottom of a coffee mug...pudgy hands with index and middle finger pushing the scrubbie to the bottom...oops, chip on mug mouth:(

My inch deeper Spock salute took months to heal:barf: It was a daily splitter, sore, and more annoying than anything I can fathom.

I have nearly lost finger tips and sawed through my thumb web, but nothing compares to the MUG!:eek:
 
My cousin kicked a house door closed while my index finger was on the strike plate, left index finger went in the hole, door completely closed. I knocked on the door with my free hand, she opened it, I cursed and tried to play more play station... Finger was cut to the bone right at the last joint, finger had a hairline fracture. It only took 3 stitches, but those all tore out of the skin.

Or, when i cut my thumb on a butter knife doing dishes, to the bone on the first joint...

Off of my hand, my sister's 20 pound cat jumped on my leg and held on with one claw when i was only wearing boxers, he slid down about 4 inches before letting go.
 
I looked all through this thread....and there are NO pics from before your bandaged it up:confused::grumpy:

BTW- I don't think the Car door one will work very well. Just tell em two thugs jumped you and you had to put em down with your blade, but one of them got your hand in the knife fight, right before he took his last breath:p


Or tell em you went to work with a meatcutter for a day just to play with your knives,lol. I can't even count the times I've had stiches from butchering.
 
I remember when the cat was about a year old and she pee'd on the floor. I opened the door to toss the cat outside. She had long sharp claws, and managed to latch onto my hand as I tossed her outside.

I never did that again, as her claws sliced my skin open right down the length of my thumb and flesh of the hand about an 8th of an inch deep.
 
Here are my top three "silliest" (sorry no pics):
-Shaving down a piece of bamboo so that it would fit into another piece, allowing me to create a homemade set of "hide-a-chuck" concealed nunchucks. I was 10 years old and shaving downward, toward the hand holding the bamboo. Almost lost a finger.
-Having a ski-pole-turned-sword fight with my neighbor. The jagged end of my opponets "sword" went through the meat between my thumb/forefinger...age 11.
-Don't know if this counts as a cut; thinking I could still perform miracles on a rope swing at age 40. The only miracle was that I slid down the length of rope shredding my palms without smashing into the rocks below me.
 
changing the tip on my pool cue. i drove a razor about an inch into my finger. i don't have insurence so stitches and a hospital trip were out of the question. i drenched it in alcohol and super glued it together. about a month later it was good to go
 
this still makes me laugh.. I always practice knife fighting technique when I'm driving.. "yeah I know" I had an EK stilleto I used to carry a lot, and after getting some really interesting looks from other drivers I decided at a stoplight to put it away. Had the sheath in my left hand and went to put it in...missed the sheath and went right through my thumb all the way to the bone.. looked down saw what I did and just laughed my A.. off... wrapped up the mess with my handkercheif.. went home and used a combination of butterfly bandages, gauze, hydrogen peroxide and tape to "fix" it... took about 2 weeks before it finally began to heal back together. still aint right... but neither am I. :-) "finally sold that knife on the forums"
 
went back to the medical centre and they re-bandaged it. The nurse was very surprised they didn't stitch it - looks like it's been through a blender !!

My 3 year came with and she is hardcore man, she was getting in on looking at my finger and she didn't even pull a face. Just said.. you sore Daddy !!

Work were fine with the truth as it happens !!

A- it was unwrapped and you didn't even take a pocket digi to get us pics?
B- Your daughter sounds tough. Mine won't even look at a cut...I guess I need to quit trying to get her to go into a medical field one day.
C- What! After asking for all these excuses you just told the truth!!!:p

I really wanted to pull the phone out an get a pic but I left the damn thing in the car !! I showed my boss my hand today and he nearly puked, Juliette was actually keen to have as look - maybe she'll grow up to be a nurse ??It was my version of the truth !! :cool:
 
We still have not heard the REAL TRUTH! Brendan, :p Have You ever heard the old saying The truth will set you FREE! :)
 
Glad to know I'm not alone! :D

Thats actually the reason I sold my RC5 - a lot of close calls :yawn:

It's just you two :D:D

The only time I ever cut myself in a silly way was with a Del Tin broad sword I had sharpened (Del Tin doesn't sharpen them).
I decided I would use the sword to cut two plastic zip ties that held a pump mount on my bike frame. I grabbed the top frame with my left hand, sword in my right hand, and proceeded to push. At first it didn't seem to want to cut. So I pushed harder, and then...It cut! Through both ties and half of my left hand forefinger halfway down the the tip. sliced through from fingernail to 3/4 the way around the pad, fatty tissue under the pad clearly visible. Had no idea there was so much fat under the tip of the finger:D

oh my FRIGGIN Gawd! That is the FUNNiest thing I've read so far in this thread:D:D
Glad you didn't REALLy stab yourself...Bet your mom freaked huh:D
 
I was cleaning my first blade...a swiss army knife when my parents were gone. The rule was to have my pops around when the blade was out. But I was obsessed....so of course I somehow found a way to let the blade close on my knuckle. It hit the bone, and my older sister had to help stop the bleeding. I got holy hell when the parental figures returned....not because of my injury, but due to all the stains my blood left on the carpet.
 
I once punched a Swamp Warden blade. Hit the knuckle hard. I was doing a wrapped handle and the edge guard I had on the blade kept slipping so I removed it for just one more pass through with the cord. I was using pliers to get the cord through the hole when I slipped and full on punched the edge!. I was working at around 2am(I'm a Night Owl) and being right on the knuckle the cut opened right up. I had my wife wake up and help me close it with tape but it didn't stay shut. Went to the Dr's office later in the morning after I got some sleep and got the start of a lecture about knife safety. I was told it would be a bad scar due to my waiting. I replied "Cool!" and got an odd stare from the Dr :D Sometimes I tell the story as I punched a knife out of an idiots hand before he could hurt me really bad :D I try to leave out the point that I was the idiot!
 
Opening a can of tuna. The lid was below the lip and I sqeezed the can to pop it out. It went deep into the crease of two fingers. Might have been drinking some, can't remember.
