Worst Injuries Disccusion thread

April 2007, Level 4 shoulder separation

I crashed my uni with a 27" road wheel going about 30km/h just about a year ago. I was waring a large backpack so I could not roll out of it.

every ligament that holds the shoulder to the collarbone were ripped in half and the collar bone lodged itself into the muscle that is usually over the shoulder blade.

My shoulder still gets stiff if I sleep on it and my leg is still sort of numb where they took out muscle casing to repair the ligaments in my shoulder.

Moral of the story: don’t wear large backpacks when unicycling faster than you can run.
