I'm starting to wonder if I am made of rubber or something else. In the past 5 weeks it has gotten really odd as I got rear ended 4 weeks ago at over 75mph and my car was pushed in a good 5 feet into the back seat and I only sustained a daylong stiffness in my right shoulder muscle and x-rays showed nothing. Then I fell off the ladder while repairing the roof eve, and nothing injury wise. I slipped on some tree roots which were like ice near my backdoor and landed as hard and awkwardly as a person can on the pavers, and 6 days later still no pain or stiffness. And when running after my dog who attacked a rabbit in the backyard, I stepped into a hole and know I should have twisted the holy hell out of my ankle, but no pain or tightness.. Yet I look at my brother who is 10 months younger than me and he gets injured so dang easily. Don't get me wrong, I am very grateful I am not hurting or anything, but is there an actual condition that can explain why some people simply are not injury prone? I do consume a TON of calcium if that helps.

You should try jumping off a really tall building, elasto man.

You don't feel it now but you will in 30 years.

I know somebody that survived a 60 foot fall onto concrete and survived back in the day .

Then fell asleep at the wheel after a long road trip with cruise control on his car it careened off the road downhill into a tree going 70 miles an hour and he walked away without a scratch

You live in The Matrix. Injuries aren't real unless you believe them.

Ajax, mind if I ask where this happened (city), and what general time frame? Someone surviving a fall like that is rare at best, yet I also know of someone who did...curious about whether it's the same person or not.

Nope, you're just working up to the day where you end up in a body cast or coffin from standing up too fast

You should have a theme song. I'm going with Rubber Band Man
