What's the most interesting way you've managed to (accidentally, I hope) injure yourself?

I ask because I think I've just had mine.

I was fixing up my tiny quadcopter drone so I took the blades off and activated the motors, and I touched the spinny bit to make sure it's working and it was. In fact, it was working so well and spinning so fast that the friction gave me a tiny 1st degree burn. WTF

A few years ago in my technical studies class I was using this machine called the Milling Machine and I was not paying attention and the blade cut my finger very badly. After receiving medical treatment; not only 10 minutes later, the same cut came on my other finger LOL

Do you know why people don't ride bikes while their arms are crossed? I discovered it 8 years ago. The result was a little stinch on the left of my head and tons of blood on my face.

One time when I was sitting at my desk and was about to stand up, I somehow managed to bump my donger against the edge of the table so hard that it caused a bleeding tear on my foreskin. It wasn't particularly pleasant.

I fell on the stairs once. Managed to get a broken ankle and a broken phone.

Want to know how it happened? I was about to go downstair, while texting, and a fucking cat decided to be at this exact place. I sliped on it, and it happened.

I was shaving some hair, and I got too close to the skin and the bottom of my scissors accidentally cut my dong. It didn't bleed much, and is about the size of a paper cut, but it hurt like hell.

This one didn't happen to me, nor did I get to witness it, but in my school's science lab, two dumbasses were screwing around and one accidentally stabbed the other in the eye. Luckily for Dumbass B, he didn't lose the eye.

This didn't happen to me but I find it hilarious; my friend sprained his ankle 'cause he fell down the stairs. True story and he ended up wearing a cast for two weeks.

I tripped going up concrete stairs while holding a plastic bag containing two glass bottles of cheap perry. Sliced clean though the tendon in my left thumb. That earned me eleven stitches and two months off work.
