The falling weed eater hit me so hard in the head I saw stars ,kind of like when you take a hard punch to the jaw ,thought I was dead ,went staggering inside waitng for the blood then put myself on "concussion watch" It was actually kind of funny in a sick sort of way ,Rhonda and I were in hysterics (guess you had to be there !

Car on jack stands, trying to swap tranny before next round. Trying to get the middle bellhousing bolt out. Pulling the ratchet towards me,slips, bust my self in the mouth,then I jerk my head back at the same time and hit the back of my head on the asphalt.Fat ,split lip on the front lump on the rear.I don't even remeber if we made it.

I had a Ramcharger with a hatch on the back, freakin' back of the truck rattled for 2 years and I couldn't find the rattle, raised the hatch one day and heard something rolling down on the inside of the hatch, I got so excited I had finaly found that rattle I went and showed the wife where it was coming from, I hit myself in the head with the hatch so hard that I dropped to the ground.

Some years ago I had a 1970 Firebird. It had a fiberglass hood that when I was workin on it, it had a wooden stick to hold it up because ya couldnt have regular hood springs. I was workin on the engine while it was runnin, and reached across to do something when I happened to lay my arm across the Mallory coil, shocked the livin crap out of me

. When I came up, violenly I might add, hit the hood, knocked the stick out, now im stuck under the hood with the motor runnin. When I came to my senses I was somehow able to get out from underneath it

and

That is a good one. All I got is the rattlesnake one I'm currently getting roasted for in Tom's Jet debris thread....

I guess in a way the only good thing was that none of my buddies were around, otherwise I would never have lived it down lol

That's not something to be ashamed of. That's just how things seem to work........ That's just a really lucky one to have survived. Tom's on the other hand, that's just downright funnier than shit!
