Hi John - sounds nasty, at least you got off "lightly", next time I bet you'll be wearing your harness.  :wink:

Not been in a roll, but have fractured my ribs doing Muay Thai (Thai Boxing) when I was younger.  It's like having a knife permanently in your side, which takes you to the floor when it decides to remind you of your stupidity.  :lol:

Oh yeah - I am at work.  "Group ICT Manager" means I get to drop in and out of my favourite forums, without it appearing on the web logs.  :twisted:

Get well soon mate.

Good fun busted ribs eh!!!!


Weird, both Bulli and myself have suffered the same fate, couple of broken ribs, both while practising Muay Thai.


I guess it should have a safety warning.


More importantly, how the truck... :lol:

Did it with a mates ford ranger. Sat there upside down for a good few minutes, laughing and trying to work out how to get out of the belts without injuring ourselves on the glass etc. Hit black ise at speed on a road in Canda, just went into the median and keeled over.

Get a light

Then we'll take bets on how long it takes you to rip it out :)

Audi had that once, would get in, start it up and Ding Ding Ding...

Two days after I got it it had an accident with some wire cutters.

Good to hear it wasn't major - and that you are getting better.

I have been there before myself numerous times - used to play alot of Rugby - broke/dislocated ribs on 5 different ocassions one season, which was due to the weakening of the muscles / tendons etc that hold the ribs in place, after a largish chest operation - had to give up playing on the advice of the Docs, said I would end up puncturing a lung or worse. Still miss it immensely - Rugby best game in the world - "Rugby; a game for hooligans played by gentlemen" compared to Football, a game for gentlemen played by hooligans.

Hoping you feel better soon and back on the sauce!!
