I just stood on a plug.

SparkySpitfire

Finally heaved myself out of bed for a bathroom break.

Leapt across the abyss that is my bedroom floor and landed on a plug, my subsequent agony compelled my body forward at which point my face smushed against the wall and I ended up in a crumpled heap of pain on the floor.

After writhing in pain for 5 minutes, I open the question to you AH, is there anything more painful than standing on a plug?

Yes, yes there is...

Kinda puts your plug antics into perspective doesn't it?

One of my relatives literally did that, and had to get her yoohoo stitched :P

Getting your eyebrows threaded by someone who clearly doesn't know what they are doing.

Ouch!!!!

You know it. The world must know of the threats posed by unattended plugs.

Should have announcements that all unattended plugs will be disposed of by the Bomb Squad.

I'd say standing on a landmine would be up there.

Paradoxically that would be quite comfortable assuming the Lego was the base and you were allowed a mattress.

cold comfort, but I hope that knocks your plug-step into the ha'penny place.

Falling into a pit of glass, covered over by nettles... on fire.


Can't imagine that being rosy.

Slick50

Stubbing your little toe, hard enough to drive the nail out through the side of your toe. That hurts... lots.

Renegade Mechanic

Running for my life after drowning someone considerably tougher than me (still worth it), across the back of a car only to catch the hitch with my shin.

Im too tall for any lifts in any garage Ive worked in. They only ever go up about an inch just past my shoulders so when the spanner I was pushing slipped, I got the edge of an aluminium sump on the top of me head.

Actually fell to the floor and couldnt speak for a few seconds after walking under another hitch.

Falling (stupidly) for a prank in the colledge phase where someone short said their pen went into this cabinet on the wall they couldnt reach. Let me say right now that I was quite tired and hard of concentration at that time and that it did not look like a bloody exposed junction box! All I saw was these... for all the world metal rulers going across it with gaps in between. I hadnt a clue what they were, let alone that theyd be live and only one door on the left was open, the other was closed. So in I reached. Even now, three years on, I just cant describe it.
I learned something that day. Im not sure what, but I learned it.

I stood on a plug once. I was wearing shoes so it didn't hurt.

Having never been stabbed, shot, physically tortured or gone through childbirth, I will add the following for discussion...

The banging of an exposed pinky toe off the corner of a door frame, usually happens on a zombie-stroll back from the bathroom during the middle of the night.

KKkitty

Hope you have the power to socket up OP. It's a sore thing to happen so I'm sure you're feeling a bit wiry.

I stood barefoot on a hot hair straightener

pharmaton

I have a footstool thing at the end of the bed, my dog is small and uses it to catapult herself onto the bed (or sleeps on it) and every morning without fail I stubb my toe on the corner of it while it making my way to the bathroom, in a semi sleep state. I know I should move it but I never do.

Hootanany

Instep or heel if it was the former I hear your pain, took me about 2 months to stop limping.

I'd say getting stabbed is more painful than standing on a plug. Maybe, just maybe.

I stood on a Chinese plug once. I think they've the same design in Australia.

They look like ours except they have blades instead of pins!!!


I couldn't walk for about a week and had to go to the doctor! It punctured the skin.

At least European plugs aren't sharp and tend to lie flat and American ones are very rarely upwards pointing when they are on the ground as the cable usually exits at the back.

I second that. And also hitting your 2nd or 3rd toe on an edge of some furniture. The pain!

Obviously not, my husband stood on the plug of a hairdryer that I left on the floor 29 years ago! I've just reminded him of it and he's been ranting for the last 5 minutes.

I stood on a plug and the large prong embedded in my big toe. But I laughed it off.

Pumpkinseeds

Having most of my left armpit removed and skin grafted, wasn't a lot of fun. On the plus side when nosey people ask me what happened they believe me when I say it was a shark bite:D

It's awful, he needs some serious antibiotics for that. I usually draw around it with a pen so I know if it's spreading
