its a long story but...im an all state pole vaulter and i was just messing around at heights that i should NOT be even attempting. it was a very windy day and i just didn't get enough speed to get the full bend on my pole to clear 16 feet. i lost my grip on the pole and fell 16 feet straight down and my leg got caught in the metal pit thing.....yah snapped in 2 pieces. it was a tib fib compound fracture... the worst pain that i have ever felt....and what pissed me off was when the ambulance showed up 25 minutes later they stuck the morphine needle in the wrong place and blood started gushing out of my vein lol
