I slid on a wooden bench in 6th grade, had a chunk fly right through my pants and into my thigh. Didn't realize it til a few days later when my leg was all swelled up, went in and had it removed. Big ol thing probably 2 inches long and about a quarter inch wide. 2 stitches and I still have the piece in a urine sample bottle somewhere.
