    Never have broken a bone, I did blow out my ACL playing softball at age 50, my body could not convince my brain that I was not 25 anymore.

    Sitting here with a freshly broken tibia at the moment. Damn dirt bikes.. The docs were very impressed with amount of pre existing hardware in same leg. Did manage to fish solo yesterday. Launch / load boat and all. Have had a lot of practice and fairly proficient on crutches

    1 broken toe from martial arts sparring when I was in 8th grade; broke a finger during football, and dislocated both shoulders during football (left in 10th grade and right in 11th). Now sometimes if I push down at a certain angle my right shoulder will hurt for two days.. and I’m only 28 so it’s gonna be a fun future

    No broken or fractured bones in 62 years.
    Too many major cuts to count.
    Some blunt force trauma during my working days. But, that was part of the job.

    I've broken a few fingers and toes here and there. Dislocating....I used to ride motocross for a living and from memory I have dislocated my left ankle about 12 times, my right ankle about 8 times. Twice dislocated my left elbow. I have had way too many cracked ribs. Dislocate my right shoulder once.
    Who knows what else, I just know I hurt after most races every weekend.....
    The thing is i have never spent one overnight stay in the hospital. We had a semi type team doctor that just reset our dislocations and we climb back on the bike. Our team manger always told us, "see those guys over there standing against the fence?, you get off your bike and they take your ride", we wrapped up with some bandages and climb back on. Now they did shoot us up with some of pain killing drugs. I remember a few times I could not even feel my feet.
    Oh how dumb and stupid we were in our late teens, we thought we were indestructible. Then when I hit 40 and beyond I feel I made some dumb choices. But I never in my wildest dreams thought I would live past 30?????????
    I finally gave up riding at 21 when I would pee nothing but blood Monday and then it would clear up by Thursday, I went to the doctor and told him and he said I was bruising my kidneys so bad they were bleeding. I had two choices, stop riding motocross or lose both my kidneys by 25. I got off my bike. At least I made one good choice.

    Just three. Broken wrist, ankle and a fractured rib. (The latter in a horrifying go cart crash)

    As for the OP, perhaps you should consider, based upon you apparent propensity for breaking bones, to change you forum name to.... Mr Glass...
