14 of the most random freak accidents people have ever had
Most of us have an injury story we might trot out at the drop of a hat whenever there’s an audience, but some stories are a bit more interesting than others, simply because they’re so utterly random. The @Super70sSports Twitter account shared one of those freak accidents and asked others for their similar anecdotes.
What’s the dumbest freak injury of your life? I’ll start: Took a leak then somehow broke my goddamn index finger when I caught it on the door facing while leaving the bathroom.
That’s incredibly stupid but I know some of you can defeat me. Go.

I sprained my wrist once when I walked into a spider's web and flapped away too vigorously in a panic. I told people it was a rugby injury.

Torn tendon in middle finger putting a fitted sheet on the mattress. 3 corners were on. Pushing the 4th corner on, the elastic in the sheet snapped back, bending finger all the way back. Told friends it was from playing basketball.

Didn't happen to me but someone I went to high school with broke his thumb by taping a cover onto a book. Yes, you read that right. Taping a book. https://t.co/pcn24wBdQe
