Everyone gets hurt. It happens to the best of us. We all get sick or injured, some time in our life. Whether it be broken bones or the flu, it happens all the time.
But sometimes, it can be for a weird reason. Here, you can share some.
(For those of you wondering, when I was 4, I dropped a slice of cheese on the floor. I was kinda like, "Eh, 2 and a half minute rule!" and ate it. Yeah, the next day, I had horrible nausea and vomiting and severe food poisoning.)

Where to start.. When I was 12, I fractured my wrist in a marshmallow fight. I caught my hair in a vacuum cleaner when I was 20 (more embarrassment than injury). At 22, my boss set me on fire while teaching me how to weld (2nd degree burns only thanks to protective gear). In 2014 while on vacation, I got sun poisoning on both feet, broke 2 toes on a rock while snorkeling, and sliced open my other foot on some coral (all within 72 hours). Basically, I'm the Queen of Stupid Injuries.

When I was 6 years old I was playing outside in the winter at my babysitters house. An older boy was chopping up a melting ice fort with an ice pick. He told me I could walk behind him to get into the house. When I did- he slung the ice pick over his shoulder and the blade went into my forehead

I’m a volunteer for an assistance dog charity. I look after a “puppy” from about 8 weeks old until 14 months. I do all the house training and general obedience stuff. They live with me while I’m training them. I only mention this because if you’re going to injure yourself, you’d think it would be the 10 month old, 40Kg German Shepherd puppy.
It wasn’t the puppy.
I have a rescue dog as well. She’s 18 months old and about 15Kg. She looks like a whippet. She’s absolutely beautiful but has no sense of direction or self preservation. As she’s new to us she also has no recall so she’s on a lead while we’re walking her.
You’re all thinking it’s the dog’s fault! Nope! It’s more stupid than that.
I walk them both in the same fields but at different times. I need to concentrate on one dog at a time at the moment so, separating their walks allows me to concentrate on each one’s training needs.
I walk the huge German Shepherd through the fields, he’s having a great time! I accidentally step sideways off the path into a hole and almost go flying! No harm done, must look where I’m going etc.
Now we come to dog 2. She’s not allowed off the lead and is a bit of a pain at the moment as she learns how to walk nicely.
Lovely walk even if she’s a bit over excited. Then we come to the bit with the hole. I’m going to be very careful. I was so busy looking out for the hole, I forgot to look at the dog. She ran right under my foot as I was about to put it down. You guessed it! I panicked about accidentally treading on her and instead stepped sideways into the hole I was looking out for.
Dog was fine, I was in a plaster cast for 8 weeks.
TL;DR stepped in a hole I already knew was there to avoid treading on the second dog I’d walked past it.

If there is a way to get hurt, I will find it. I sprained my wrist carpet skating, stubbed my toe on various things, got hurt sitting on the couch, knocked a tooth out with a book, gotten a bunch of mystery bruises and cuts, cut myself with my fingernail, burned my hand many times while baking, fractured my arm while mountain biking, and got out my loose tooth while eating a cupcake. All of these were on accident, and there is probably more.

Just the other day I cut myself with the back of a knife.
I was chopping up some yams which are very hard and the yam kinda just broke as I was putting pressure on the back of the knife and the knife slammed into the cutting board and the back of the knife which was flat and not sharpened in any way cut through 3 fingers. It was pretty deep but I didn't know I was cut until i saw the blood on my yams.

Hiking in a rocky area known for rattlesnakes with lots of low brush. Something struck my lower leg as I walked down the trail and I instinctively leapt a truly impressive distance away and threw my right arm up into the air for a counter-balance. That partially tore two tendons in my right rotator cuff. The pain was so intense that I almost passed out but managed to stumble to a low boulder and sat down. It was one of those, "hold onto your a** and wait for it to pass" moments. Afterwards, I could only raise my arm sideways by just a few inches. It took a year of physical therapy with light weights to restore the range of motion, but thankfully, no surgery. What struck me? It had to be a branch, but there was no wind that day and the trail was wide enough that I shouldn't have brushed up against anything. Whatever it was it really popped my bare leg (I was wearing cargo shorts), but left no mark.

I broke my hip because my dogs saw a squirrel. I had a German Shepherd and German Shepherd/ lab mix as a kid. Together they outweighed me by quite a bit. I had a lot of homework to do so I thought I would save time by walking them both at once. Needless to say, that turned out badly. My parents didn't take me seriously when I said it felt like something was broken. I walked around that way for a month. Eventually my mom casually asked a medical professional if it was possible to walk around with a broken hip. He said "yeah. It would hurt like hell, but it is technically possible." She finally set me up with a dr appointment and before I knew it I was in the hospital waking up from surgery with three giant screws in my leg. I have a real pretty scar and my hip hurts whenever it rains. Fun times.

I've broken my left arm twice, once when I was 5 (near elbow) and then at 9 (near wrist). The first time, my mom had told me not to mess around on the arm of the recliner. I did so anyway. Fell off and somehow broke a bone falling like less than three feet, I think... I'm a very talented klutz! The second time, my brother and I were trying to swat a (rather large) fly. I was standing on the second stair up, but I forgot that and thought I was on the flat floor. The fly kind of dive-bombed my head, which scared me. I lunged and leaped sideways... off two stairs... and landed with my arm beneath me. So basically, a fly broke my arm. *shrug*

Once, I was around 4. I was running with socks on and I fell and almost had to get stitches on my chin.
When I was in 4th grade everyone was jump roping of the curb. Did it once, I was fine the second time I sprained my ankle. I was wearing fluffy fluffy black socks. Let’s just say around my desk was black.
Also when I was 11, I was playing a game with my friends and I was sitting (more like crouching) by some bushes (I was pretending to be a cat) so then I lose my balance and roll into the tall tall bushes and disappear.(my friend was laughing.) I was all scratched up. Then while I was walking inside to get band aids I step on a bee.
I’ve fallen out of a tree when the branch I was hanging from broke.
Finally, when I was 12, I was stepping on to one of those old fashioned fire places, I cut a loooong cut on my right leg. I still have that scar

I live in Tucson Arizona. I wear a cross-shoulder bag for doggie stuff when I walk. One day I am walking them like always. They stopped and I leaned over to adjust their leashes, causing my shoulder bag to slid a little bit. That’s when I felt it. STAB. STAB. Searing hot pain in my shoulder. I shook my shirt and figured it was nothing serious. A few hours later I could barely sit up, I’m so dizzy, and the vertigo was intense. The room spun and if I stood the floor zoomed away from me. This went of for a full week. I had to basically crawl to the door to let my dogs out. My only guess is that a scorpion dropped down from a tree and it got upset when my bag nudged it.

We had a swimming pool growing up, and when I was fairly young, I'd enjoy pushing up on the edge of the pool with my arms, then rapidly pushing back down to the bottom of the pool. On one of those trips, though, my chin struck the concrete at high speed. One of my front teeth (a baby tooth, luckily) was driven straight up into my gums, and they split. The dentist was able to pull it, and my permanent tooth came in later, although slightly crooked.

Don't know about the board but my landing was cushioned by a large prickly pair cactus patch at the base of the ladder. Spent the next hour standing on his back porch with my right hand on my head while he, along with his sister, mom, dad and I think his grandmother, plucked thorns from the right side of my body starting with my elbow, working all the way down to my right knee.

February over a decade ago I was notified my grandfather was dying during a horrific meeting with my micromanaging hateful boss.
Later that night, I thought I’d apply more “effort” and log in. I went downstairs and opened the right door to the refrigerator. Seconds flew by as a heavy stainless steel coffee pot smashed into the bridge of my nose from a shelf overhead. I oddly looked at the LED clock on the oven and it was precisely 11:11 PM as my head was snapping back at the blunt force. To make matters worse, my metal glass frames sliced the bridge of my nose at at 45 degree angle. That’s when I knew blood would be next. I grabbed the kitchen towel while keeping my head in the position it landed in. I carefully walked back upstairs and prepared to take a look. Next thing I did was get super glue out of my nail kit and cleaned the blood out of the sliced nose. After drying it, I superglued the wound perfectly matching up the skin.
I called someone to take me the ER. After being asked what happened... I said, “my cat tried to murder me. He had been playing with the cord to the coffeemaker and it got stuck in the door hinge. The rest is physics.”

I'm known for managing to injure myself in really stupid ways (falling up the stairs instead of down; sitting and chatting with my mom and watching my hand suddenly going rogue, poking my eye with my thumb without intending to move my hand at all; etc). The one injury that made my doctor say "...you did this HOW?" and then walk down the hall to get two of the other doctors on staff so I could repeat my story to them: I partially tore my Achilles tendon while sleeping. Nobody else was in the bed with me, no animals were on the bed - just me and a bunch of pillows. As far as the doctor and I could figure, I must have had a leg cramp in the middle of the night which caused my leg to automatically shoot out to stop it. I never woke up. When I went to stand up the next morning I put my left foot on the floor and immediately crumpled to the ground. I was on crutches for about a month for an injury sustained while I slept.

I broke my leg when I was 8 and 1/2 months pregnant, because I was afraid our cat was locked in our detached garage (while we lived in Germany). It was like 5:30 in the morning. I got out of bed, threw on a house dress, a coat, and some flip flops and ran up the slope in our back yard to look in the garage. Cat was not there.
Headed back down the slope and slipped on the frosty grass (It was January) and sat down on my left leg ... I heard it snap. While I lay in the grass waiting for help, the cat walked up and sat by my head.

My feet somehow got tangled up in a blanket that was lying on my floor. I ended up falling on my wrist and cracking a bone in half.
Also, when I was 10 I broke my elbow from falling on it to many times while rollerskating.
One more story (I'm kinda a clutz), I was at my school, walking backwards down the hall while talking with my friends. I completely forgot that there was a staircase in that hallway. I tried to step back, but I had reached the stairs. I didn't realize it and put my weight on the foot. I fell down the ENTIRE flight of stairs. I ended up breaking my collarbone, getting a concussion, tearing my MCL, and tearing a muscle in my ankle.

I was playing laser quest after a month after my nose reconstruction surgery, I was walking back and firing and turned around to run from the other group and my nose found a wall. Next thing I saw, people running and stumbling on me! (I think after this freaking/stupid accidents that morons like me had, they decided to remove the fog machine and turned the lights up... Sorry, it was very fun before)

I walked right off the bed when I was little. Like, tried to keep walking after falling of the edge as if trying to walk through air. I also thought the window was rolled down in a car when I was six and tried to stick my head out the window. I was a dumb kid.

Too young to remember but as told by my parents...
We lived in an old, premanufactured home with a stove that was not well insulated as modern stoves. I was just learning to stand and walk and needed to support myself. My mom turned her back and I pushed myself up on the hot stove, burning my hands. Mom described my bandages as "boxing gloves"

My dog was surprisingly crafty. I was snacking on a pappadum while waiting for dinner to cook and she wanted it, so set about splashing the contents of her water bowl on the tile floor. I go into the kitchen to check on dinner, slip on her water trap and go face into the back door. Dog steals pappadum, I get goose egg from cracking my forehead on the door handle and no dinner because goose egg got me sent to the hospital.

After this incident I had to visit a chiropractor. It was a stupid thing to do but funny looking back on it. My daughter and I drove out at night to see the lava flowing down to the sea. I gave her the better flashlight and with my dim bulb missed the fact that an old flow had covered part of the road and I tripped over it.

I had to get stitches when I was five because I was dancing in the shower and fell. I also fractured my wrist after tripping twice. I've dislocated the same toe twice the same place the same way (I keep jamming it into the wall on accident.) and I think that's it. For now, I am so clumsy, I'm surprised I'm still in one piece.

Before the fireworks started on the 4th of July, I (Maybe 8 years old at the time) was running around the dining room table and leaping over my friend. I tripped and broke my head open on a flowerpot. I needed 16 stitches, but the only reason I was crying was because I broke their flowerpot and thought they would be mad at me. Silly 8 year old me 😋

It was in P.E., we were working on our track and field unit, i was at the shot put station watching on of my friends do some other event, sitting sort of parallel to the line where people were throwing the shot put. Yes, I got hit when a girl let the ball slip out of her hands. Surprisingly though i didn't get a bruise, even when it hit me on the right side of my upper forehead.

Trying to keep a screen door from hitting me, which wouldn’t have hurt or been an issue at all, I tried to catch it with my foot and sliced open my heel. The ER doc that stitched it up couldn’t find a few of the ligaments that were supposed to be there because a few years prior I missed a step and tore several of ligaments that ‘rubber banded’ into the upper part of my calf and created a permanent knot that is always sore. A year after I sliced my heel open with a screen door, I opened my fridge and a Redi-whip can someone did not put up properly fell on my foot and I am still, 2 years later, unable to bend my last two toes.

In dance class we were practising the leap frog. 2 girls asked me to check that the lass acting as the base was in the right position, as the dance teacher had me as their partner for the demonstration and I didn't so much as budge. Before I confirmed that the base was sturdy enough (they weren't even remotely ready), the person doing the jump started running. I yelled at them to stop but too late. The base faceplanted hard into the concrete floor and lost a front tooth, which was later found about 20 metres away. To this day, both girls blame me for the injury for not stopping them...

Going downhill on a mountinbike on a wide asphalt road. I saw a big piece of broken asphalt lying right in front of me, but at the speed I was going, you can't swerve around it. I hit the piece and bounced of the road, into the verge and grinded along the guardrail until I came to a halt.
When I got of the bike I noticed drops of blood spattering next to my feet. I didn't feel any pain so I actually had to look myself over to see where it was coming from. Turns out my indexfinger was cut open to the bone. It had been stuck between the bikes handlebar and the guardrail during the grind.

At my old school we had these things on the playground that you would hold on to and it would spin you around a bunch. Well, I was one of the few kids who could climb on top. I fell off one day and don’t think of it. Three months later my hip began to hurt and me went to the doctor. Turned out I had sprained my hip, mind you I was in first grade, and dint know my hip was sprained.

Ok so not me but my sister, It wasnt that weird but basically me and her share a room, and i had the top bunk. I was sitting in my top bunk reading a book. My sister comes up into our room and tells me its time to go to bed. I ignored her, because i was on the LAST PARAGRAPH OF THE CHAPTER. She procceded to climb into my bed and try to take the book. I wasnt going to have any of that, so i pushed her. Out of the top bunk. Onto the hardwood floor. She got a fractured wrist, which meant she couldnt try out for the competition team at her gymnastics place. I wasnt allowed to read for a week.
Also we were lighting off fireworks one time and we were chasing parachutes, she was directly under hers and a hot ash from the bottom of it fell into her eye. She was in the hospital all night.

Once in third grade I was at reccess and my class was playing infection, so I was probably trying to get away from someone. But we have this thing on the playground where it had these hanging things connected to the playground set and then little things at the bottom underneath. So basically I just slipped and fell from the hanging thing onto the bottom thing and busted my chin. I had to get stitches.

When I was 12 I walked into my friend's bedroom and somehow managed to dislocate my pinky on the door jam. It stuck out sideways from my hand like I was making an "L" on the wrong side of my hand. Just recently I was walking down 3 stairs that separate our house from the entryway and fell. On my way down my ring finger caught the wooden hand rail and cut my finger (other hand than the pinky incident). I had to get stitches and now need to get my ring resized because it won't fit over the scar tissue.

Two years ago I went to Ivy Tech Community College for a field trip. This trip was for an elective course that not only gave me credits for my high school but also college credits. The group I was in was finished getting business stuff explained and we were headed back to the schools auditorium to eat and have some students at the school talk to us. In order to get there we had to go down stairs. They gave us papers and folders to put the papers in. I stupidly I might add decided to attempt to do that while going down the stairs. I was talking to a kid from my school. One moment I was standing up and the next I was on the ground. I didn't just fall straight though. I fell and slid. What had happened was I most likely missed a step and landed on my ankle then slid almost the rest of the way down and nearly had a girl in front of me also fall down. The stair that I stopped on my foot came out from under me and the bottom of it hit the corner of the stair. I was helped up and then I was in pain. I texted my parents and told them what happened. At the time of this story I also had to walk two blocks to get to my house because that was my stop. I got inside my house and took some Motrin and put an ice pack on my ankle. It was three times the normal size my ankle usually so my mom took me to the ER. I had sprained my ankle. The doctors in the ER gave me an air cast that was two pieces. On both sides of my ankle were things that compressed and a strap that kept it secure. I wore that for the weekend and then on Monday I went and saw a podiatrist. I ended up in a walking boot for a month.

I've got a lot of stupid injuries so I'll narrow it down. There was my second grade injury when I ran right into the play ground equipment. Split my head open and had a small fracture of my skull. Have a weird bump there to this day. When I was 11 I nearly amputated my toe with a crushed soda can. The trash bag wouldn't come out of the bin so I used my foot to hold the bin. You could actually pull on my toe and watch it slide off the bone. Fortunately I still have my toe! I broke my tailbone jumping on the couch. As a teen I tried "snowboarding" by standing on a trash can lid down a very steep hill. Went flying and landed on my neck. Nearly broke it, two vertebrae crunched in on each other. Got a bump in my neck there and it still causes a lot of pain. In hindsight, if a crowd of people is egging you on you should probably reconsider what you're doing. Lol.

I was making Valentine's dinner for my wife - Sole meunière with vegetables. The veggies were supposed to be "balled" and cooked in butter. Everything was going well until I got to the turnip. Turnips are hard. I was using the melon-baller on the thing, slipped and "balled" the palm of my hand just below my index finger. Had to call my wife to take me to the hospital. I still only have partial feeling in my left index finger (all of the nerves were severed), and this was 20 years ago.
In the ER the person checking me in asked how I was injured, and I said melon baller. He was like "What?", and I repeated myself. He said "What?", again, and I said "Knife."
