Today, I went to an indoor trampoline park. This would usually be fun, except that I got there, broke my ankle, and left in an ambulance, all before my friends even arrived. FML

Today, I went to a trampoline park and jumped into an adult-area foam pit that apparently used to be for children. I guess it never occurred to them to change the depth of it, as I now have a fractured ankle. FML

Bounce off

Today, I embraced my inner child and went to a trampoline park with friends. I was having a blast until I attempted a somersault and ended up bouncing right into a group of screaming toddlers. I was escorted out by a concerned parent. FML

I would do anything for my kids

Today, I took my kids to an indoor playground. My two year-old wanted me to climb the rock wall and ring the bell. I slipped right when I was about to touch it. I landed wrong and felt a 'POP' and agony. Hello, broken ankle. FML

Bad idea

By Anonymous - 19/04/2009 21:44 - United States

Today, I was on a friend's trampoline trying to convince my mom that trampolines are safe and we should get one. While telling her, I smashed my knee into my face. I jumped off bleeding, slipped, hit my head on the trampoline, and got knocked unconscious. FML

Today, while at a trampoline park, my time of the month and my out-of-shape body worked together to make me almost pass out. FML

Today, I decided to turn my life around and start exercising more. I didn't even make it out the door before I tripped and fractured my ankle. FML

Today, I was so happy to be leaving the hospital after breaking my arm the night before. Just as I walked out of the doors, a huge ambulance team was running in at the same time, and knocked me down full force. I now have a broken ankle. FML

Today, I decided to impress my friends by doing a flip on the trampoline. What did impress them, was my lack of tears after I hit the edge of the trampoline and broke my nose. FML

Today, I was at the gym, feeling pretty proud of myself for working out consistently for the past month. As I was about to grab a towel, I tripped and landed face-first into a pile of gym mats. People turned to look, and all I could do was try to laugh it off through the pain of what turned out to be a sprained ankle. FML

Today, I woke up after being sick from the flu and tried to get out of bed. I forgot I was in a bunk bed and broke my ankle in the fall down. FML

Wow, you managed all that before your friends even arrived? I hope they weren't too envious of your efficiency!

I've only ever sprained an ankle before, and that hurt like hell. I can't imagine what breaking one must feel like... FYL and get well soon, OP.

Breaking your ankle isn't as bad as people say. I mean, it hurt, but it went away because of shock. What really hurt was all the bumps on the road to the hospital, and when they were setting my ankle, which felt like they were gonna rip it off. My ankle broke in two places, so they put a plaster cast meanwhile I heal slightly from the surgery. Gonna get my hard cast in a few days. Overall, the breaking of the ankle wasn't so bad, it's just the process that comes after it.

I had a friend go to one of those as well. Jump, jump, SNAP! Snapped his femur in two on the second jump. Those places aren't for the weak boned! Good luck and feel better!
