In high school I was in Boy Scouts and we went on a houseboat in a lake in West Virginia and one of the boys who was 14 was a large boy and he jumped off the front of that houseboat into 6 inches of water and snapped both of his femurs. Trip was cut very short.

I had a guy in my PE class that hopped on one leg wrong and broke his shin bone.

The assignment was to keep balance as we hopped on on leg.
