Sitting naked on the loo (was about to have a shower) and thought, 'They say you can't look at your own elbow'. So I tried. Threw my back out. That was…I was fairly determined I'd rather die on the floor than have to be carried out buck naked by firemen. https://t.co/JaHAZcgqNG

Pulled a muscle in my leg at a wedding reception doing this when the DJ played AC/DC. I wasn't right for a couple of months. https://t.co/Rh0sFT31yG pic.twitter.com/LQaHVoAs7n

I cut my head open & had six stitches on the top of my head having put my bag at school underneath a fire extinguisher. I stood up & the bottom of the fire extinguisher won in a battle of contact with it & my head. Had to go home on the school bus with a bandage over my head.

I tried to pull a cork on a bottle of wine when I was drunk. Smashed myself in the balls, fell over the dog and bruised my arse.

Spring last year, the building where I work is surrounded by the woods and I saw a squirrel to my right on my way in.
Turned my head slightly to look at it and pulled something in my neck. Haven’t really been able to move my head without pain ever since. pic.twitter.com/d1pwpnnmvd

One morning, I overstretched a tendon in my neck trying to look at the alarm clock behind me. All because I was too tired to actually turn over. https://t.co/xtT9Rq4FMV

Fractured my foot trying to stop a plate smashing in the kitchen I work as I was scared of the cost of replacing it. 5 weeks of hobbling about and high level painkillers. Would have cost me less to sort a new plate.

BONUS – Tudor problems.

I twisted my ankle badly while dressed as Queen Elizabeth I. I snagged my foot in my petticoat
