Some of my worst accidents were incredibly stupid. For example, I was sitting on the couch reading a book and a picture nail came out, a picture fell on my head, and I got a concussion.
Another time, I was reading Fanshen, holding the page open with my pinky and dislocated it.

I was working, sitting in a chair that had a rung across it. I was wearing kitten heels that I hooked on the rung while I worked. My foot slipped in the shoe (The shoe did not come off.) and I broke my ankle. Yes, I broke my ankle sitting in a chair.
I was playing volleyball. I had a killer serve back then. I had just served 14 unreturned serves when on the 15th I cracked my wrist so badly the crowd could hear it break.
About 4 months later, after it healed, I was playing foosball and did a hard shot from the defense post and cracked it again.
The following year, I fell cliff-climbing and broke it for the third and last time, but that's not nearly so silly.

When I was 5, I was swimming and a snapping turtle bit my big toe. My nail grew back in about 15 separate pieces, all of which have to be clipped separately.
Whenever there is a question for Twitter about sillly accidents, etc. I am always befuddled on which is really the silliest.
