Don't really know, but I can guess he's getting ready to snip off the intestines.Quote:

Not sure intestine surgery qualifies exactly as carnage, but it sure it up there on the gross scale!!!! :)
i like how the doctor is throwing up gang signs... :)Quote:

My wrist after the 2nd surgery:

Hi,
Im new to this forum, but I noticed that my severed finger was featured on the first page of this thread, so I thought I would update the photo with a better scan and post some others:

the story of this accident can be found here:
http://www.summitpost.org/trip-repor...y-photos-.html
long story short i pulled a rock off the wall onto myself and it severed my left ring finger and crushed my right forearm muscle. I was alone and had to hike for 3 hours to get out to the highway. You'll find an upfront admission of the mistakes I made in the first paragraph of the narrative.
also, i found the other thread in here about my accident story and had a good laugh at the 'shocker' comment.
btw, they put my finger back on.
Thanks jeffmoore I needed that. Maybe next time I won't click on this thread while I'm eating lunch. :(
Kool! I did something similar when I was 13. Accidentally dropped a cinder block on my left index finger. The whole damn finger had to be rebuilt with the wreckage that remained and I wish that I had simply lost it. The finger's worthless now and goes numb and then painful on cold days which really sucks when running or cycling during the cold of winter. I may end up having it partially amputated.Quote:

That trip report is crazy. The pics of your finger are far worse than the skeeters to me though.
over the last year ive had 4 surgeries each time on both hands. the finger does not bend all the way but it bends some (it was stuck in a straight position for about 9 months). with some amazing micro-surgery i am regaining feeling in the finger, but the circulation is total crap and its cold most of the time. for a while i was thinking, like you, that it would be better to just have it removed, maybe someday if it gets in the way, but ill give it a fighting chance.
on the right hand the motions of opening my fingers and thumb are imparred and my right ring finger droops down due to permanent muscle loss. grasping things is ok though, since those muscle groups werent injured, and that accounts for most of the use of the hands i guess.
and about the accident, the injuries honestly did not hurt that much as i was walking, kind of a constant burning sensation, but those f-ing mosquitos i couldnt fend them off or zone them out, it was completely miserable. i would just scream at them in anger.
Now that I have this polaroid in digi form, here it is. Probably the most destructive 3mph bike crash ever. I endoed, and I tried to brace my fall, but there was a big rock that went straight to my teeth. So, the front tooth was broken and needed a root canal because the root was too damaged and the other teeth needed braces for a couple of months. It took 18 months to finally take care of all the insurance BS, since it fell under medical insurance as an accident.

No worries, I've had the crashes for you :)Quote:

Not me, but I took the picture last week. It's what happens when you screw up a 25' drop and make a 30' to flat on a MTB...
The jawbone was most definetly visible.
Ouch! And I was worried about my own face after endo-ing on it last weekend! This one blows my scrapes away!Quote:

Still have the puncture scar from that one, it was about 4 years ago.
Puncture scars and road rash, so hot..... :D

Not sure the definition of carnage? I paid a doctor to do this to me, but it did involve both upper and lower jaw getting broken.

Huckwheat I can't see the pic but did you get jaw surgery with braces and all that excitement? I'm getting my upper jaw done and maybe I'm glad I can't see your pic.
Oh yeah....year of braces, then surgery (upper and lower), then 7 more months of braces. Wasnt that bad really.....get a good food processor and you can eat anything (liquid diet really just means mashed potato style: pizza, burritos, pasta meals, all good :)).Quote:

Huckwheat, did you get a good fat albert "hey hey hey" impression going looking like that? :smile:
