Only ones in other people's bodies. It was an adjustment, kind of like a chiropractor but for their attitudes.

broke my finger. Didn't even know it was broken till a day or so later. i was playing basketball, hurt it, came home late, fell asleep, woke up with it bowling ball shaped and huge. Apparently I was sleeping on it. all of that made the surgery all the more painlful (i still can't bend it all the way down)

Back when I worked for Coke, a 2 liter bottle exploded in my hand when I picked it up to stock it on the shelf. Tore my thumb up pretty bad. Broke it in 3 different places. Worst pain I have ever had in my entire life. Still afraid of 2 liter bottles 8 years later. Still can't bend my thumb.

I broke my lower right leg (tibia & fibula) when I was 3 years old.
We had one of those big-ass station wagons (like in Vacation) and there was a lot of room between the side of the car and the front seat. I got my foot stuck between the seat and side and opened the door. I was pushing against the door and fell out, with my foot still stuck. Imagine the horror as my shoulders were touching the ground and my foot was still stuck in the car.
Luckily, my mom was a nurse and she didn't freak out.
I did get a couple of new Atari games to pass the time while it mended (shows you how old I am!)

Broke my thumb playing Ultimate...didn't know until a month later...finally went to get it X-rayed because whenever I would play NCAA Football 2004 or try to give my then-gf a back massage, it'd send sharp pains.
Broke a tooth, too, walking up some concrete stairs.

you don't remember? You don't remember breaking an ankle nor your collar bone?
Yep. Both my hands at the same time: crushed metacarpals when a hydraulic cylinder fell on them. I finished the work day, though. Unscrewing a gas cap with broken hands was one of the least fun things I've yet had to do, though.

Broke my right forearm when I was 4. How? I successfully jumped off a spinnig office chair like Superman, and when I tried to perform the trick for my mother and friends, I landed on my arm and it broke. No blood.
Road rash when I was 12. I was inline racing a downhill when some twigs got stuck in my wheels. I wiped out and was dragged by momentum for 30+ yards. My entire right side of my body was bloody and scabbed for 3 weeks. No broken bones.
Cut my right hand b/t my middle and ring finger when I was 13. Got it sandwiched between the handlebars of my BMX and the blade of a jolosy window. No blood, but visible muscle and fat tissue. Received 6 stitches.
Broke my face when I was 15. Got jumped by 5 big black dudes (never really prejudice until after this incident). It was outside of a mall. 5 of them vs. 3 of us. Four facial fractues (2 right cheek, 1 orbital, 1 jaw), and a broken nose. Lots of blood. Lots of drinking through straws. Lots of mental therapy. Needed surgury (w/anasthesia) for my broken nose (deviated septum).
Broke my left forearm and cut my chin when I was 16. BMX accident. Looked like I had 2 wrists. No blood except for my chin. Received 6 stitches and many many many good drugs. Had to hold my broken arm for 3 hours with no meds because they could not locate my mother to sign the legal papers to opperate. Needed major surgery with memory malfunction drugs (no anasthesia, but no memory of surgury or pain).
Now I'm 17. Injuries this year include 2 ingrown toenails, which both required surgury.

Broke my arm playing baseball as a kid, then the Dr. didn't set it right and had to have it rebroken and set again. That sucked.
I also broke several ribs in a car accident. Add a collapsed lung, minor head trauma and a dead friend and it was easily the worst time of my life.

Collarbone in a fucking playoff basketball game, we won that game but lost the next by 4, I'll always wonder if we would've won a championship that year had I not gotten hurt. Oh... I was 16, so that was WOW... over 5 years ago already.

I Busted my ankle wrestling in high school.
My foot stayed planted to the mat while the rest of my body did a 360. I couldn't believe it happened.
The kicker was months later I went with the team to another match away at the school we played that I wrestled and broke my ankle. I ran into the guy who wrestled me in that match and he went on about how his mom got it on tape and they always are playing it over and over again to the delight of their family. (Because they were so proud of their sons strength) I was disgusted to say the least...

To be honest, due to a bad break-up with my girlfriend, who was a manager for the wrestling team, the team didn't really have my back. It was a no win situation unfortunately.

Not really sure to be honest. I am one of those male morons who doesn't go to the doctor unless I can't walk or breathe. I have injured ankles on several occassions playing basketball where they have swollen to three times their normal size half way up my calf.
I also may have broken my nose playing basketball. It's still a little crooked, but I never got it checked out.

Broke both the bones in my lower right arm playing hockey. The part that sucked was that it was my right arm and I couldn't write, so my writing in the first half of eighth grade looked particularily bad...

I've never broken any bones...but a broken nose might actually help to improve how I look. :) Hell, I've never even had any cavities in my teeth, and I won't need to have my wisdom teeth pulled.
I'm in good shape right now, but I'll be a wreck in a few years because my genetics suck. Stupid parents...

I broke my clavicle falling of a bathroom counter when I was about 3. I broke 3 bones in my right hand in a bicycle accident. I broke four ribs during football. Shattered my right femur, left ankle and three bones in my left foot during a rapelling accident. My right wrist is mostly metal after shattering it during a football game. I've broken fingers and toes about a half a dozen times each. And I cracked my right patella (kneecap) when I was working on a car and it fell off of the jackstands... that one really hurt.
edit - I've also had 7 concussions, have a poorly healed torn rotator cuff in my right shoulder (pitching for baseball), my left knee is 89% scar tissue thanks to football and both elbows are hyper-extended. Kids.. stay away from sports.

Fell out of a tree in '96 trying to get a cat down. Landed on my left wrist and broke it.
It was funny while I was at the hospital; they knocked me up with drugs, and to put my wrist back into place the doc swung his leg over my arm and pulled and set it, no problem. I was out after that; I came to as they were casting me.
It was fun having that hard fiberglass cast; I was in gym one day and we were standing in line for roll call, when some punk decides to mess with me by casually strolling past with his hand in a fist, barely missing my face. I see him coming around again for another pass, so I make a plan.
When he comes around again, I hold up my cast quickly so that his fist hits it. He recoils and does the normal shouting of curses at me; but he goes away. Mwahaha.
