I broke my tibia in 1983 in five places all at one location!

Cardrona Ski Resort on New Zealand's South Island.
Beat this one, I broke my arm in 5 places tripping over a pillowcase (left on the floor) that I was trying to remove - to avoid tripping, IN HOSPITAL, while recovering from back surgery!!!!
Had a plate put in and yes, I do my VERY best to keep away from hospitals!

Luckily, I didn't have any plates or screws for my break. A particularly nasty spiral fracture that wasn't compounded somehow!
