Worse injuries... Just seeing what kinda injuries you guys have sustained while looping a wheelie. My boy just got his bike about 4 months ago and just looped it on Sunday. He was getting pretty good too, thats the bummer! 
Anyway, he broke the chit outta his right arm, sprained a coupla fingers and wrist on his left hand. Sprained his left ankle, not too bad of road rash, and bruised some ribs. He got really lucky considering it was a 2nd gear sit down freeway wheelie. So lets hear it...whatcha got?

I crashed into some bushes one night last december. The bike hit a curb, I flew face first into some bushes and got knocked the fsck out and the tail of the bike hit me in the back. 5 clean broken ribs and 2 cracked ones next to my spine and a collapsed lung. Didnt go to the hospital until the next night. It hurt but I thought I would be cool. The lung is what got me.

Concusion, torn rotorary cup in my shoulder, tore all the muscles in my shoulder down to my lower back, dislocated right knee, demolished left knee (had surgery to fix some of it), damaged nerves in my left side, little rash here and there and some burns everyonce in a while. It's all GOOD now though.

1 1/2 months ago, Slid off the tank at 50+ mph from a peg to tank combo. No jacket. Just helmet, gloves, shirt, pants, shoes. All i got was road rash everywhere. No broken bones.
Feb. 2003
Fell off at 51mph pavement skiing off the back. I was trying to get back on and i fell off upside down when my foot kicked the road. All i got was road rash on my *** and elbow.
All i do is tuck and roll. I don't try to stop myself from rolling. I think that is the key why i haven't broke any bones
