You didn't??

 

I guess it's understandable if all you played was football...nancy boys prancing about and cuddling each other rarely break bones! lol

 

Just about every guy friend I had growing up broke a bone or two at sometime.

Know what you mean about this one - I have two cousins that I haven't seen since I was 5 I think? And their parents, well, my grandfather has essentially disowned them, and to him, I am his only grandson. That saddens me as my cousins have missed out on a great man, but has made me extremely lucky to still be his "jimmy".

I didn't break any bones either.

 

Obviously those who didn't are simply not as well-'ard as the manly Mr Go Native.

 

Or of course played the nancy boy, blah blah blah, most popular game in the world, football. Or was it soccerball.

Hang about...
I haven't broken a bone (cracked my shoulder last year by didn't realize it, but not broken a bone) and my Dad 100% Brit, Mum is 50%.

However 2 out of 4 of the boys have broken bones, and Papa has also - long lineage from the transported there ...

So you might have something. lol

I haven't had too many breaks actually. Got a broken cheek bone whilst playing cricket in grade 6 (didn't wear helmet back then). Broke an ankle at 16 in a motorcycle accident and was very lucky that was all after flying off the bike at 90km/hr and going through the air for around 20m. Broke a few fingers in another motorbike fall. And broke my other ankle in a rockclimbing fall. Other than that have dislocated my shoulder twice and dislocated a couple of fingers and toes. Overall not too bad with no major bones being broken.

And you tell 13yr old BFG to HTFU! veryshocked

Let me tell you about his break.
Twin spiral fractures - the Fibula looks like a sapling that got twisted around and snaped through with bits off in all directions, and the Tibia is a Z shaped break through the upper ankle/mid calf down the shaft and then across the growth plate!
His foot was on backwards on the field.
He went 45 minutes and an on site reduction by a handy orthopedic surgeon before his first whiff of pain killers.

I think BFG is well 'ard. thumbsup
