Worst had to of been the welders flash I got from two main phases shorted together in a 600 volt 1200 amp switchgear. (I was an apprentice and did not know any better but to follow the boss). We were lucky to be alive. My eyes were swollen shut and pussing for 3 days after that. Also burnt off my eyebrows and most of my hair lol
Second was getting hit by 347V across the chest while doing a service call in a gas station (open neutral). My chest felt tight and my arms hurt so I drove right to the hospital...I was OK but I was scared sh!tless let me tell you!

Been pretty lucky in my working ( and playing) life.
I used to work on wheelchair vans, got a metal sliver in my eye (unknowlingly) Found out about it the next morning when the light from the TV was too much to bear. Turns out that metal makes a rust ring in your eye that they have to drill out  Does not feel like it sounds, but I thought the doctor had slipped a gear when he said drill my eye.
After it was out, felt ok, before......

My worst is probably nuts to hard plastic trash can at 70 mph 
My second is a jagged porcelain edge to my temple about an inch from my eye.

Shots=good, Flu Shots especially.
Tequila shots=bad, especially...that means jail time, usually, and/or fist fights with best friends.

A Flu Shot is a shot of Jagger in a half can of Red Bull, as I know it.

my worst happened recently, a piece of a chisel (not mine, nor was i using it) went through my eye ball. through the retina, lens and ended up near the optic nerve. i had to have emergency eye surgery and they had to remove the lens in my eye cause the metal had gone through it. so as of right now i am blind in one eye. hopefully will be having another surgery to fix that...but there ya go.

What Turd Guy?
I hope you mean my avatar, not one of those 5 or so screen name having trolls around these parts.
Btw, pretty sure it's easy for the admins to do a traceroute to see who those trolls are.
Oh and I almost took a middle fingernail off today trying to get a gypsum 2x4 tile to drop into place in a restaurant kitchen....right onto the edge of a stainless hood where my other hand was resting..........it hurt like hell but no permanent damage, I got lucky.

After reading all the injuries, I'm feeling damn grateful that the worst I've had is stitches a couple of times, and one time stepping on a nail - the tetanus shot hurt worse than the nail.
