Today, I pulled a neck muscle while head-banging. I wasn't at a concert, and I'm not in a heavy metal band, but I do pretend that I am while I'm in the shower. FML

Today, I was headbanging so hard to a song in the shower that I hit my head on the wall and got a concussion. I'm now in hospital. FML

Today, I decided to get in shape for swimsuit season, so I went to the gym. I tried to lift a barbell up and over my head, which was fine, until I dropped it. Exercise earned me a concussion and a neck brace. FML

Today, I woke up with my face flying at the wall. A muscle spasm had caused me to pop out of bed. I'm now dealing with a concussion and sprained neck, thanks to an almost physically impossible feat. FML

That's what I call Heavy Metal

Today, my favorite song came on and I started playing air guitar and headbanging to it. I didn't realize just how close I was to the chair next to me and went face first into the metal back. FML

Today, I was in pain due to overdoing it at the gym yesterday, so I thought a hot shower might help. Not only was there no hot water because of my sister's hour long showers, but I slipped getting out and hit my head. Now the pain is worse. FML

Today, I am probably the only person in the world who can manage to pull a muscle in their neck while brushing their teeth. FML

Usually in the shower I'm pulling a different muscle.

#29, that may be true for most men, but not for me. Mine can do curls and push-ups.

"I wasn't at a concert..." So? I headbang at church and school! I'm guessing you left your shower radio on. Was Iron Maiden playing? They get me going! :D

OMG the exact same thing happened to me, but not in the shower, just in the living room. I was singing along to Paramore. The pain lasted about three days. Good luck.
