That is interesting about the knee and stem cell. My buddy had it done and swear by it but I guess all cases are different.

Glad your keeping your sense of humor about your unfortunates. Bet there are a lot of interesting and maybe funny stories to commiserate with everyone about their mishaps. If you can't laugh at ourselves from time to time, who can you laugh at?

We've all had crash and burn experience's, some worse than others and no laughing matter on some with tragic results. But the old saying what doesn't kill ya makes you stronger probably applies. Bet there are some great stories of reasonable minded people that had accidents befall them where they tore themselves up and maybe broke their gun or saved their gun by giving the body. Like I said have had my mishaps but nothing to bad.

Was duck hunting in a beaver pond and stumbled and fell in waist deep water. Floated the cap but held my gun out of the water. Buddy said I was under for a good 5 count with me holding my pump shotgun out of the water like a redneck version of the lady of the lake holding Excalibur out of the water. That was about as graceful as it got once I came up sputtering and cussing.

The worst thing that I know that has happened to family member was when grouse hunting in an old holler up in the hills and they stepped into an old rusted out but hidden mash pit from an old abandoned moonshine camp. That pit was disguised and hidden so well you could not see it. Tore up his leg and fell on gun and cracked the stock. I think the gun event went off. Ever since then when walking in woods if I see trash or broken bottles in place real inconvenient to get to, I am looking for old pits and have found quite a few.
