I scratched my eyeball with a piece of swarf from using an airline on a lathe to blow all the metal out of it. In the first aid book, they put, ‘Damaged eye, hit by flying slag’.
It's when they take the bit of metal out of your eye that it hurts even more Broken leg hurts for months, but it isn't anywhere near as intense. The safety 'elf says, where your specs people!
Had a piece of steel thrown up by a truck on the M6. Was probably @Poptop2 Anyway that steel hit my bike and my foot making a nice hole in my boot. And my foot. I lost a pint of blood in a few minutes, there was a line of it down the hard shoulder where I sat waiting for help. It hurt a lot but the morphine really helped.
Worst pain? Really? Catching "Sampson" in the zipper when a nipper I basically fainted to end it all Broken wrist came a close second ... Was doing "labour breathing" waiting for the paramedics, who wouldn't give me morphine because my BP was 80/45 ish
My mates a rough tough plumber (arent they all). He had one and said he was reduced to a crying ball on the floor.
Pithing gravel through a tea strainer, just to make sure they were all out. That’s not the most painful part, surprisingly.
For real man's pain try that bit in your knee that gets caught between the joint bones,then it gets a ragged edge and before you know where you are your knee has swollen like a turnip.
My then 18 month old son woke me up by bashing my eye with a Duplo (giant Lego) seal, that smarted a tad. Couldn't see out of one eye at all for about ten minutes, at least the worry of going blind in one eye took my mind of the pain.
Torn meniscus. Did that two years ago, getting up from the chair for the tv remote. Agony for 3 weeks. TV is bad for you. Stay active!
Surprised nobody's mentioned extracting a 5 pound note from a Yorkshireman's wallet. They reckon it's the most painful thing they can experience. They've 'ad worse, mind.
