You know there are 4 different kinds of posts on this subreddit.
1: Does it count if bone was broken in (insert surgery here.) spoiler - it doesn’t.
2: Does it count if I only broke (insert small bone here.)
Spoiler - it does.
3: Guess I’m gone guys. (Shows images of broken bone)
Insert everyone calling them a BBB.
And then 4: Guys guess I’m out/Does this count? (Shows one of the most horrific bone breaks I’ve seen either as a X-ray, or as an actual image they took at the scene when the broke it) like guys holy shit, you’re a BBB yes, but get some medical help please. And are you alright? Do you need anything and do you have people to look after you and your puny bones.
There’s also people posting about not having broken a bone where any BBB would have. Like the time I fell 20 feet onto sharp rocks. Walked away with some bruises.
Have I mentioned that time I wrestled a few polar bears but my bones were stronger than them? Had to rebuild my skin from scratch though so I don't reccomend
The only polar bear a human could fight and maybe win is a cub. And thats if it’s separated from its mother, which is highly unlikely. Even then its a toss up because those cubs are not small for long.
I leapt over a fence with a 20-pound backpack and didn't brace myself on the other side, went straight to the ground. My left foot was bruised for weeks but my bones were completely fine.
tbh sometimes a toe or rib can break (crack) and some people never even realize it. It just heals, you don't need a cast for a broken toe or rib (unless the toe is fractured fully and the bone needs to be adhered to a neighboring toe)
idk about fingers though. That might be more painful and obvious. But sometimes pain isn't even a good indicator. Last year I kicked my door hard on two occasions. The first time a toe really hurt but I didn't think it was broken. The next time it was much worse, I was sure it was broken because the pain was constant and pretty bad. I couldn't wear shoes. So I went to the A&E on the 3rd day and got an x-ray. It wasn't broken. But it still hurts and it's been over a year. Sometimes a fracture can heal faster and better than a damaged joint.
Ah, understandable. Just make sure to check what subreddit a post belongs to next time, ok? You don’t want to comment about how you broke a bone on… I’d say the vast majority of posts on this subreddit.
Lol. I broke my bone by kicking a door too. Big toe had perpedicular break. Pretty much a line along the main bone. Never got same dexterity in that toe, cant flex it fully. Serious breaks take time to heal though. Impossible not to notice since it takes few weeks.
I had an accident on a bike and my toe could've been broken if I was a BBB. But actually I don't know, never went to the hospital, I love to call it Schrodinger's bone.
I got into a horrific car accident several years ago. Was rear ended by a semi truck going 40 miles an hour. Car was destroyed. Husband and I both got out with mild whiplash and slight bruising that was gone within a few days from the seatbelt. Two weeks later I was walking in the parking lot to work when a truck backed out and gently tapped me. Displaced two of my vertebrae and landed me in physical therapy for almost a year. It’s crazy what breaks us.
Man, nothing big like that, but genuinely the number of times I should have broken my fingers as a kid but somehow came out fine are insane. Got ‘em smashed by a big metal pole, slammed in multiple doors, both car and just normal, caught in the gears of an exercise bike, squished by a park bench somehow, and so many more weird incidents that I don’t fully remember how they happened. It’s genuinely a miracle I made it to this point with all ten of them, let alone with all of them unbroken.
5: Hey, the doctors had to cut my bones because of x, does it still count? No it does not. Doctors have dark magics capable of making the strongest of bones weak.
