re: What's caused you the most amount of physical pain in your lifetime

I once swung a 3-iron as hard as I could at a golf ball in ~40 degree weather not knowing the ball was resting on the root of a nearby oak tree. It broke my wrist and rattled my bones so hard I felt like I was still vibrating 10 minutes later.

I've broken a lot of bones in my life - arm, ankle, nose, both collarbones at once, half my fingers, and had a few sprained ankles.

This golf incident was the worst by far. If you're a golfer, you know what it is like to hit it thin in cold weather, well imagine hitting a tree root and breaking your wrist in cold weather.
