What is the most painful thing that has happened to you physically?
-
I used to be a paratrooper in the army few months back, and there was one jump into a field problem that obviously didn't go as planned. I was a 240l machine gunner, so my load was always a lot heavier then other troopers. The winds were in excess of 25 mph, which is way too high for airborne operations. Anyways, as ordered, out we all go. I remember the shock of the chute deploying, then drifting across a 3 kilometer wide drop zone in a matter of 20 seconds. I woke up in the hospital, all my gear was destroyed from the fall, my machine gun was literally broken in half, (poor baby) and I hit the ground so hard it snapped the helmet off my head. Had the worst pain all over my body I've ever had for a solid 2-3 days. Gnarly haha.
