Silly Injuries

[Spikey Shrimper]

We've all heard about footballers suffering injuries in rather unsual circumstances, ie Leroy Lita a few weeks ago, pulling a muscle in bed (his leg I'm talking about!!) etc....

Anyway, while I was having my usual dump before my sunday league game today, I felt a sharp pain in the left side of my neck, mid-wipe! :cry: :cry:

Yes, to clarify, I jarred my neck while wiping my bum! Don't ask me how but I did and it hurt. I could not turn my head to the left and still can't now!!! I played today anyway because we had a bare 11, but I definately was not 100%. (lost 4 - 1 :( )

Was just wondering what other stupid injuries people have had from rather unusual circumstances??

I think this article is on the outskirts of too much info.

Not sure we want ShrimperZone in the national papers for something like that.....

If you had broken a metatarsal while in mid wipe, then that would have been something to be proud of!

I recall a Swedish footballer missing the World Cup because he twisted his knee getting his dinner from the oven.

You'd be having a mid-wipe crisis.

Sorry!

I recall a footballer missing games because he dropped a bottle of Mayo on his foot, and didn't Rio Ferdinand do his back in doing something stupid. Also a footballer and a coffee table rings a bell.

Me, Once I was putting on a pair of trousers got my foot caught overbalanced and pulled a muscle in my back....

A friend of mine broke an ankle playing Wii tennis.

Darren bent missed the back end of last season after slicing through his wrist making dinner. Can back end be classed as pun? I don't know.

I remember an article on the OS a few years ago reporting Dave McSweeney being out for a couple of months with a ****ed up knee orsomething because he had jumped off his garden wall!
