I was just having a conversation with one of our Forumites about stupid accidents we've had. So I was wondering...what kind of accidents have other folks which were kinda...well...stupid?
When I was in high school, a group of us went on a trip to Natural Bridge, VA. Also at Natural Bridge was a small cave called the Saltpeter Cave (and lets not discuss the side effects of saltpeter...). Anyhoo...we all decided to go into the cave. The entrance was kinda low so we hunched down and all got in. You could stand up in there once you got in. We started walking down a little slope...it was very dark...pitch dark actually (as caves tend to be). So somebody held up a cigarette lighter so we could see. And see we did...a whole bunch of BATS. So half out of fright and half out of silliness, we all turned and ran back to the entrance of the cave. Sooo...I was running...and the next thing I know...BAMMMM! I'm knocked backwards and end up flat on my back on the cave floor...my face was totally numb. I had no idea what happened at first (knocked silly!)...but apparently I didn't realize I was at the entrance...where, if you remember, you had to DUCK to get in...
I didn't duck...and hit the cave wall full tilt. I was bleeding...I had a big gash on my forehead and a lot of cuts around my eye. They had to take me to the main office and get me cleaned up. I wonder now if they closed the Saltpeter caves to the public after that....hehe
Now Ozzy...I know you could fill this topic up but I think you can only have 99 pages or something so....just give us the best ones.
