Throughout my whole life I have never broken a single bone, and I can thank my milky diet for that. And all I have to show for is a small dent in my ribs. But here's a list of what I've been through.

Trees fall on me
Trampled by said trees
Made my sister do a 360 flip on her bike by crashing into her on my bike
Sister ran over me with golf cart
Twisted my back more times than I count
Pushed off my bed by sister and fell 5 ft face first
Almost decapitated by ceiling fan
Punched in the chest real hard when I was 5
Had car door slammed into my arm by sister (I think it was on purpose)
Walked a mile barefoot through pine needles and gravel (young age)
Banged head against more desks and walls than I can remember
A history of being head shotted by volleyballs and basketballs
Was almost stabbed
Stabbed self with pen, I don't know why
Stepped on
Clawed at
Burned
Blinded
Choked
Vomited 50 gallons shit and some blood
Bitten by my dog, friend's hamster, cats, my sister, Gunpla and ducks (Fucking ducks I'll get you...)
Kicked
Punched
Refinery fire
Shot at
Electrocuted
Dipping arm in frozen fountain to remove ice
Trampled by sod
And I think that's it. So far all this stuff happened to me and I'm still fine and not horribly disfigured. To be edited.
Son, i believe there's already a similar thread for that kind of thing. You might wanna look here - http://ravenrepublic.net/forums/showthread.php?tid=597
Mine is no injury, but I have survived from something else. Survived living a life without internet for 3 days. It was one of the most challenging days I've ever had in my entire life. Every minute and every second, my brain would keep telling me to search for something on google. For three days, I would always close my eyes and duel with thine brain to the death in a fencing match.

Three days and I have never sustained a single injury; its attacks were never able to hit me and I destroyed my own brain countless times in an unending battle. Everytime the duel would restart, I would always pop out my gun and shoot the enemy fencer. Hence, I always win.

Yes, there is more than meets the eye. Not only have I survived without any internet for 3 days, but I have also survived fencing duels that couldn't hit me in the first place.

2 weeks no power and the trees almost killed my sister, plus it was snowing balls everywhere and power lines were down everywhere as well. Plus AT&T bullshit afterwards so throw another 2 weeks onto that.

my ortho considers my case a miracle since i not only lived through the fall when i was two, but i survived with no paralysis whatsoever. the only downside is, i kinda walk funny to some people XD likewise my psychiartist and neurologist are pleased at my rate of recovery and how i have coped with my situation.
That's just amazing, I know some people that have been through alot, but you... you certainly have come a long way.
The Manila earthquake of 1991(?). Ondoy.

Yeah, me and my folks were out of the house at that day, buying stuff at SM Makati when it happened. All i could think of at the time was my baby brother who was left at home.
editus maximus: i was thinking about the '92 earthquake. the one that hit baguio.

We were at home when the quake hit, but it was just me and sister who was only two years older than me. Pretty scary coz we didnt know what to do.


Not sure if it counts, but also survived the coup d'etat during the time of late Pres. Cory Aquino. We live near RPN 9 which was taken by the rebels. We could hear the gunfire as it was being retaken by the military. Oh, and I remember being a few meters away from where a chopper landed and deployed soldiers. My mom had us sleep under our large and think narra table in case stray bullets came down thru the roof.
no RR for a week and a part of me died
