Was riding out of the woods on a trailer, after putting up a stand and feeder, being pulled by a buddy on his wheeler. trailer had a 2" hitch, wheeler had a 1 7/8" ball. Went over one of those little mounds they build on logging roads to keep them from washing. We was traveling at a pretty good clip, as young fellers having a few beers are known to do. Needless to say when the wheeler crossed the little hill the trailer came loose, traveled about 15' and the tongue buried in the next little hill. Seemed like I rolled for a mile but probably only 10-15'. 
as I flew off the trailer my arm, just above the wrist, clipped the angle iron. Compound fracture. Sucked arse. Didn't really hurt to much that day, maybe the beer next few days was a sumbitch.

Stingray to the hand. Went under the skin between my middle and ring finger on my right hand. Damn thing hurt like hell and I couldn't make a fist for two weeks.

Setting up a marsh grass, cane and chicken wire portable blind before daylight in the marsh over 40 years ago when I poked about 7/16"" of stiff grass under my bird finger, (middle finger to the pious). broke it off when i tried to get to it with a knife and my left hand. Had to wait till I got home in the afternoon to get it out with knife, nail clippers and tweezers. If folks are worried about water boarding, just go to THAT as "enhanced interrogation". Every beat of the heart creates a sharp throb in that finger; and forget about bumping it!
Almost forgot about taking a sharp twig in the eye before daylight. Staggered around bumping into trees cuz I lost my glasses and thought I was blind. Eye Dr. said the eyeball was scratched pretty bad , but it healed.

"Stingray to the hand."
That reminded me of the time I got what i think was a Man-o-War wrapped around my leg from butt to ankle while surf fishing off Jacksonville, Fl.

This probaby hurt the worst. Casted into some grass and hurried up and jerked it back out. Came right for my face, but I got my hand up in time. The hook was under my damn tendon to my index finger. Got it out by putting line in the hook bend and jerking it, but my buddy didn't herk hard enough the first time :/

I guess when my buddy put a .22 in my leg when we we're kids.

Gator hunting our duck ponds in NWLA. Last day of the season we caught two, one of which was 8.5 feet long. Pull up to the camp to unload them from the polaris (I have the snout, buddy has tail) buddy drops his end and caused me to drop the snout. The damn things mouth landed open on my leg, came back to life and chomped down like a mother fricker. I immediately started going postal on the thing unloading a full clip to the back of her head. No one believed that she actually bit me until I went to taking my waders off 30 mintues later. Boot was full of blood and there was a quarter size hole in my leg. Still dont remember the pain much. I didnt think the damn thing was alive enough to break through. Scar is still there 2 years later 
And I can tell the story about "That time I got bit by a gator"

Treble hook on the top of one of the knuckles on my index finger. If that's the worst I've experienced to date, I'll take it.

Cleaning fish and someone set their knife on my rag I use to wipe my hands. When I grabbed my rag, the knife slid off of the table. Looked down and the knife was standing straight up in my shoe. Pulled put the knife and took off my shoe. Damn thing went right in the knuckle of my big toe.
It honestly didn't hurt that bad. I cleaned it up, wrapped it, and was offshore the next day. The filet knife was so sharp that the cut was very clean, so it healed upquite nicely.
Moral of the story: never wear Crocs. They're white trashy AND dangerous.

Here's a funny that hurt my pride more than anything:
Was fishing a big pond, walking the bank and had a crank bait in my back pocket. When I get a ways down and dark is coming an older lady offers me a ride back to my truck, I jump in and get a crank bait to the arse. She's a nurse and works for 20 minutes getting the hooks out while I stand there with my shorts and drawers around my ankles.

I have a buddy who lost an eye hooking up an ice chest to his 4-Wheeler rack. He hooked one end with a bungie cord and was pulling it tigjt to hook the other side. The hook from the first side came loose and hit him in the eye. Causing him to loose vision in his eye.

I had something similar happen to me except it hit me right in the mouth and almost knocked me out. BeHop was with me that day. It sounded like a damn gun going off when it popped me.

Nothing but the occasional stuck fishook. However, I was loading an ATV in the back of a truck and flipped it. I landed on my back with it coming down on top of me. I managed to kick it out of the way in what has to be the most athletic move of my life. Otherwise it would have killed me dead as a box of hammers. Needless to say I don't ride them up the ramp into my truck any more.

Your post reminds me of a friend who took a mud bug to the nose after a big bass spit it back at him. Hung both treble hooks. He stood in the boat wringing his hands until someone noticed this odd behavior and motored over to help. They were able to detach the body from the hooks which helped ease some of the pain but could do nothing about the hooks.
The guy took his boat out the water drove 20 or so miles to the hospital where the ER Dr. Offered him free service to reattach the mud bug and take a picture. The fight almost started then but the pain was too bad.
