SmokeyTheBear almost killed today. - GoFuckYourself.com

SmokeyTheBear · 11-27-2006, 07:21 PM

We have been having a big storm here over the last couple days , without power most of the time. Today i walked around my property checking for damage along the fencelines when i hear a loud crack, my first instict however faulty is to look up, but strangely i didnt, something in the back of my head told me to dive. I was midway through sending the dive signal to my legs when i was struck my a falling limb (20-30 ft long by 3/4 of a foot thck ). Falling from about 55ft up a 100 ft tree
Right ontop of my noggin.. i heard a "snap" in my neck and was driven to the ground. I lay there thinking oh shit i broke my neck.. but to my suprise i hopped up right away and no problems.. INFACT it seems whatever cracked in my neck made it looser , feels like i have been to a chiropracter..

Anyways it really makes you appreciate life.. if the limb had fallen vertical instead of horizontal i would have been impaled by the tree branch.. or if i indeed had looked up, i would have broken every bone in my face.

baddog · 11-27-2006, 07:23 PM

better luck next time ;)

pornguy · 11-27-2006, 07:24 PM

Damn. I need to work on the cut timing of those branches.

You’re not allowed to die.
You are one of the few people here that actually posts useful stuff.

garce · 11-27-2006, 08:03 PM

You know better than me how you feel, but if I were you I would still get it looked at.

It may just be my poor memory, but I do recall hearing about people who've had neck and head injuries just keeling over unexpectedly. I enjoy your posts, and would hate to hear about anything bad happening...

Still, your luck beats mine all to hell recently.

Tuga · 11-27-2006, 08:04 PM

You cant die, GFY needs you.

JD · 11-27-2006, 08:05 PM

jesus... you're a lucky fucker man.

munki · 11-27-2006, 08:05 PM

If you got cracked that hard, you might still want to get checked out to make sure you aren'y concussified...

Please go to the emergency room and get checked. That snap could mean a break somewhere. When you break your neck, it doesn't mean you automatically can't move or your head falls to the side or something hehe.

To make a long story short, my mom fell thru a floor and heard a snap in her neck...she didn't go to the doctor. Days later, her boss insisted she get checked....so she went to emergency. My moms neck WAS broken and they said that if she experienced a sudden jarring movement, then more than likely she would have been instantly paralysed from the neck down permanently. She spent the next 6 weeks in hospital in traction. Don't take the chance, get your neck checked...that is one area of the body you don't take chances with

I was just going to say this so let me reitorate.

Have that shit checked, Soft tissue damage is a bitch and you said yourself it felt looser, a common overlooked symptom.

For the sake of our sanity and growing knowledge from yours....get it looked at....

SmokeyTheBear · 11-27-2006, 09:51 PM

Now im gonna be scurrred when i move my neck im gonna get paralyzed.. Thats ok i already have an appointment with my doctor in a few days for the update on my brain tumour

rodney25 · 11-28-2006, 07:29 AM

Glad you're OK, man. Truly, things like that make us value life a little more.

Pete-KT · 11-28-2006, 07:34 AM

Damm bro, glad your ok

Klen · 11-28-2006, 07:43 AM

Huh it good to hear you are good.Btw where are you on icq?I dont see you online in latest time.

Sexsitesurfer · 11-28-2006, 07:58 AM

Glad to hear no serious damage was done.

Some technophobe who doesn't believe in the use of electricity volunteer to do any gardening for you lately?

TurboAngel · 11-28-2006, 07:59 AM

I'm glad you're oke hun.

Chris · 11-28-2006, 08:13 AM

sue the tree

Quagmire · 11-28-2006, 08:31 AM

Close only counts in horseshoes. Get back out there and try again!

Actually I've had close calls walking the fence lines on my property as well. With all the elm trees suffering from dutch elm disease there are a lot of hardwoods standing between the fields just waiting to drop a nice sharp branch on you. I have to clean them up all the time so the horses don't fuck themselves up on them.

Gary_TLX · 11-28-2006, 08:33 AM

I'm really glad you're ok, but like the others said you should get it checked out. Better safe than sorry.

quiet · 11-28-2006, 09:36 AM

get to a doctor asap - you could have done serious damage and just not having any symptoms yet.

Exactly what I was thinking - try to bring up your appointment and if they are doing a scan, please let them know about the branch story so they go a little lower to make sure you're all good. You don't want something insignificant to irritate the tumour.

Perfect timing

almost time to go sledding

SmokeyTheBear · 11-28-2006, 11:52 AM

update.. just for those worried. i ran into my regular gp doctor at the store and he took a look , but he was pretty vague . said nah you would have felt something by now lol I said "but some people on the internet ..." he cut me off and said " stop getting medical advice from the internet , i tell everyone that " i'm like but.. heh.. fucking doctors .. i also have heard stories like mentioned above , one where some lady just got a chiropractic and it pinched a nerve the wrong way in her neck and she dies a few days later or something , freaky anyways hopefully im fine , strangely today the back ofmy skull is very sore and that isnt where it landed , it hit the top .. ( bruised brain ? ) dunno but i fell fine other than the sore skull
