the other day i was trying out my flexibility and wanted to see how high i can do a front kick, i put all my force into it and did it hard and quick when low and behold my knee went strait to my face and hit my nose REALLY hard, it hurt like hell, i thought i broke it cuz it really felt like it, thats the highest ive ever been able to get my kick but i guess i wasnt paying attention, i can easily say thats the stupidest thing ive done for a WHILE, i tell everyone that i kicked myself in the face but they wouldnt believe me, now that you know the stupid thing i did, tell us about the stupidest things u did while training, u know, for sh!ts and giggles
That’s about as good as the time I was in high school and decided it would be cool to teach myself the nunchaku in close quarters. The dannn thing bounced off my bookshelf and smacked me in the head.
This could be a good thread…

LOL doughboy !
Your story reminded me of when I punched myself in the nose, a few weeks ago.
I was pulling an elbow compression bandage up onto my right arm with my left hand, when my grip slipped and my hand flew right into my nose. It was the hardest shot I had taken in a long time.
Doh !

The Dude: Fortunately, I’m adhering to a pretty strict, uh, drug, uh, regimen to keep my mind, you know, uh, limber.
Oh, one time I broke my own collar bone.
I was running a 10k cross country and trying to keep 5 minute miles. In the last stretch I was running out of gas, puking as I ran. I could see the finish line so I just ducked my head down and ran as hard as I could. I ran smack into a tree and broke my collar bone on the right side.
I ran to the finish line, and then passed out in a ditch. Yeah me.

If you pr!ck us, do we not bleed? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? If we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that the villany you teach me, I will execute, and it shall go hard but I will better the instruction. MOV
In high school, I decided to join gymnastics. My first day, they threw me on rings and told me to “swing around for a while”. Well, I figured I’d go all out, so I’m swinging, and I throw my all into it, spin around almost all the way. Unfortunately, there is a technique in rings called a dislocate, where you extend your shoulder out so that the shoulder joint doesn’t get in the way of spinning all the way around. I didn’t know anything about the technique.
To sum up, it is possible, using just your own body weight in a spinning fashion, to break your sternum, dislocate your shoulder, and pull every tendon in your chest and arms.
My technique was good, but I believe the judges would have scored me low on my shrieking dismount.
this happened a LONG time ago when i was a begginner. I was in a Chinese take out place and the kid at the counter noticed my kung fu shirt. He asked me to show him something. I threw a jumping spinning crecent kick (butterfly kick) and my shoe flew off and almost hit him in the face. It flew all the way into the kitchen. My friend couldnt stop laughing. That was pretty stupid i think.

What’s even worse, my sternum healed out of place, and only went back into place years later, when one of my instructors(a former power lifter-Instructor Don, if you’re reading RD) demonstrated 1-inch power on me for a friend of mine.

Budokan is quite the troll today. Bad Budokan!
Abou a year ago, I was practicing a circular punch, in which you coil back your fist at your face height. Well, at one point I hit myself below the eye and it was so hard I fell on the floor, grabbing my face with my hands.
Man, I do hit hard! :eek:

Spank me, d*mn you. SPANK ME!!

It’s back in place isn’t it? SHEESH! Talk about ungrateful…
BTW: It’s rare to feel physical pain while reading, but after reading KC’s “experience”… :eek: :eek: :eek:
JWT,
You are a sick, sick man. Did you keep your 5 min/mile pace :p?

I know, you think I’d show some gratitude, but no!! It’s all “I can’t breath” and “my chest bone snapped”!! God, I am such a wuss.
By the way, when your sternum is broken, you can’t get out of bed. You have to kind of throw yourself of the edge of the bed and stand up from the ground. God, I am such a whiner.
Funny, I don’t remember what my time was now. But I probabbly did. I hadn’t run in over year when I was at a camp a couple of months ago and was still able to run a 5.05 cold and I barely broke a sweat. Until I got in a bike wreck I ran for the Air Force in college.

Too bad everybody picked those planes and stuff. Maybe next time you should run for office instead of a function.

Jumping kick into a high floor to ceiling ball. Except I kicked a little too high, got my foot wrapped in the upper cable and lost footing on my grounding foot. I ended up swinging upside down from the ball, hollering for my brothers to help get me out before my sifu found me like that! :-o
They left me hanging for a while too, and only came to help when I was nearly ripping the ceiling down trying to get myself out!
B@stards. But I’d have done the same! 
You cannot defeat the Bronze Girls of Shaolin!Practised punching technique in front of the mirror once. Focusing really hard on combo’s, the last right cross caught the mirror fair in the middle and there was an awesome BANG! Not a mark on the mirror. Then there was a crash. Went into my brother’s room to see a crack in the wall and his bookcase flat on the floor.
Sent my Chi right through the mirror! Or at least that’s what I tell myself. Wish I could do it deliberately and on something other than household furniture.

I tried to test my tiger claw on my arm, didnt do it ‘that’ hard being my own arm but i errr bruised anyway 
Mental note dont try out fung fu on yourself…
you cant win all the time but you cant always lose either…
one time I got really drunk and was also bored and lit my shirt on fire. Apparently, I fell asleep and it was still on fire, luckily others put it out, probably to save the couch.
