Re: How to Break Your Arm Like a Fucking Boss
Possibly shock (More than likely)... If there were ANY damage to the ulnar, median or radial nerves? That boy would have screamed/fetal positioned almost immediately....(I know I would..lol)  That was a nasty break though... Double break/fracture of the radius and ulna..  I had a distal radius fracture around 2003.. that hurt like hell.. drunk (Of course.  ), jumped over a ledge with brush/bushes, foot got caught.. fell about 6 feet and landed on the palm of my left hand..(Radius bone, where it meets with your hand basically.) That hurt...a lot..lol |

Re: How to Break Your Arm Like a Fucking Boss
I think myself lucky I have only ever broke 2 bones in my life and both times were just hairline fractures. One time it was my wrist whilst playing football/soccer back when I was at school, and once to one of the small bones in the arch of my foot whilst jumping off a tuktuk in Laos, drunk as fuck. I wouldn't have minded so much but the hospital where I was at was the only one within 100 miles and they didn't even have any crutches or plaster cast to put on me so I was pretty much bed ridden for 2 weeks until I could put enough pressure on it to walk with a clandestine walking stick fashioned out of bamboo. Good times  |

What ever happened to those funny milk commercials that would remind you to get some?

Re: How to Break Your Arm Like a Fucking Boss
My daughter is an ex elite gymnast; see lots of injuries like these, thankfully she never suffered from any of them. That was horrific though; weird didnt look like the guy had ever done a back handspring in his life??????

Re: How to Break Your Arm Like a Fucking Boss
The coach, or spotter, or whoever looked like he was trying to help him into it, our acro-gymnastics coach would do that with the younger kids until they could get the hang of it themselves.

Re: How to Break Your Arm Like a Fucking Boss
Yeah, defo looked like hed only just learned it. Im a gymnastics coach, and looking at how the kid came out of the round off looked like he was trying to do a half turn into the back handspring ( its called an Arabian), but didnt have anywhere near enough speed or height; he didnt "block" at all coming out of the round off :( awful injury.
