I was just eating lunch at chic fillet, and this cute girl sitting next to me suddenly started shaking, then she fell out of her chair. some guys rushed to help her, and they put her on the floor. she then started to spit up blood and her skin turned purple. someone called an ambulence, so i left. i don't think i'll be eating there anymore. or ever for that matter.

... what would cause such a thing? Some sort of allergetic reaction?

Is this a joke?

Maybe she was rigged or something. (As in someone wanted her dead)


Posted by CatKnight on Apr. 22 2001,13:31
it was not a joke. it was not rigged. i think she had a siesure.
Posted by PersonGuy on Apr. 22 2001,13:38

I haven't heard of people coughing up blood during a seizure ... maybe she bit down on her tongue?

Smile, you're on candid camera? Sorry you had to see that. Ick.

feh.. still.. bleeding sheep going crazy headless .. i mean it sounds just as comical and funny as that.. to me anyways.
Posted by Rhydant on Apr. 22 2001,20:23
i didnt think sheep could run around headless...
infact, im almost sure thats impossible. there would be WAY to much blood loss.

wow, what are the chances that i'd run into a thread that i don't wanna read! i HATE blood.. its not really my thing, i get sick to my stomach thinking about it! so i guess i won't be eating either..

as of the chick: she had a seizure and bit down on her tongue cuz her to spit up blood. i'm not sure about the skin though, maybe a sudden loss of blood?

*spits up orange juice*
oh, and thnx for including the dis-embowelment of a sheep, solid! that was great [/sarcasm] where the fuck did that happen? *ponders*

one time i was at a concert, sheesh it had to be like 6-7 years ago, and the girl in front of me just dropped to the ground and had a seizure. the security quickly whisked her away. her boyfriend was mumbling something about acid eye drops or something. does that even exist? anyway, all i remember was thinking that they should get her off her back so she didn't like swallow her tongue or something. it's definately not an experience i would like to witness again.
Posted by solid on Apr. 22 2001,23:52
Oh no, trust me my friends it can happen. When you see it happen you know it can. It's something about cutting his head above or below his adams apple.

And the disemblowelment happened at this iranian get together (by iranian, I mean on the other half of the world).


Posted by nobody on Apr. 23 2001,20:06
The skin turning purple was probably from a lack of oxygen. When someone has a seizure they usually are not breathing nearly as well as they would normally, thus their blood is not well oxygenated and makes the skin appear bluish.

And by the way, it is NOT possible to swallow your tongue during a seizure. If you see someone having a seizure this is what to do (from my EMT textbook, Brady "Emergency Care" 8th ed., if you care):
"- Place the patient on the floor or ground. If there is no possibility that spine injury has occurred, position the patient on his side for drainage from the mouth.
- Loosen restrictive clothing.
- Remove objects that may harm the patient.
- Protect the patient from injury, but do not try to hold the patient still during convulsions.
Note: Never place anything in the mouth of a seizing patient."
And of course, don't forget to call an ambulance - seizures can be life threatening.

When I was 3 I rode my bike of the edge of my front porch, and fell onto a 2 inch wide gas pipe sticking sicking strait up out of the ground, which stabed into the side of my head. I bled all over the car seat as I was driven to the hospital. CAT scans... surgury... hospitalization... etc...

When I was 4 I was holding a suction cup arrow in mouth (pointing out) as I walked down a flight of stairs in my house. I triped and fell onto it and it peirceced the back of my trakeya (can't spell) and stopped at the muscle wall in the back of my neck. bled on car seat... scans... stitches... hospital... etc... scrambled eggs for a month...

well, at least we have a medical point of view... HEY! u wanna share gross things with each other?

example:
when my dad was young, he had to crank up the car (old-fashioned ones) and so he had his thumb over the bar (crank). the engine of the car backfired, and he had a compound fracture in his right arm.

another example:
my friend was playing baseball, and he hit a homerun! (yay, we won!) but this chick, who hated to loose, ran after him and pushed him from behind. he fell flat on his face and broke his nose. there was blood ALL over the place.

thats all i can think of right now.. but i'll find some more.

Well, the only gross story the pops readily to mind is when I was 4.
One night I just started puking up blood, like LOTS of blood, for no reason. Then during my coughing fits, some big ass pear shaped THING that was covered in blood got lodged in my throat and I could barely breath, so my dad had to reach in a pull it out. Turns out my tonsils were swollen and bleeding or something.. hospital, surgery, no ice cream as promised etc.

Hah. When I was 10 years old, we were in a car dealership and my sister goes and asks my dad for some money to buy a can of pop.(soda, whatever) So he gives it to her and she goes off...so then I go ask him for some. He tells me i'll have to share with my sister, so i take off running to make sure she doesn't get something dumb like SPRITE. Yeah, so i go around a corner and she's already in this room...there's a glass door and two spaces on the sides. I decide i'll just run and slip in one of the spaces. About two inches from the 'space' i realize that there's glass there. I skid to a stop and slam into the window so that all the glass falls on me. By this time my head is tingling and i reach up and my fingers go PAST my forehead and come back bloody. Some lady yells "OH MY GOD!" so i flipped out and ran to my parents. Turned out i had two gashes to the bone...20 stitches in my head and 28 in my leg. And it didn't hurt!
Posted by askheaves on Apr. 25 2001,03:29
The only real scary thing that happened to me was that I fell off my bike. This was no ordinary fall.

I went to Rainbow foods and bought some Jolly Ranchers from the bin with my 2 dollars. While there, the bike was in a rack. When I left, I pulled the bike out, unknowingly loosening the Quick-Release on my front tire. So, I ride about half the way home, and I see a crack in the sidewalk with a 2 inch raise. So, I wheelie the mountain bike up a little bit to get over it, and the front tire comes off.

I fly over the handlebars, and hit the ground hard. I was wearing Jeans and a Jean Jacket (hey, 7th grade in 1991), so it wasn't too bad... but I knocked my knee and elbow so hard against the ground that I couldn't move.

So, I'm laying there in front of some woman's house for about 5 or 6 minutes. I'm thinking, damn... I wish I could have seen that.

The woman comes home from work, sees a kid banged up on the sidewalk in front of her house, and comes out to find out if I'm dead. I start talking to her like a normal human being, but tell her my leg is messed up and give her my mom's number. She calls my mom and says, "Your son is laying in my front yard." Mom freaks.

I am then able to hobble my way to her car and she gives me a ride home.

That's it. Not dead, only some minor scrapes and bruises and an incapacitated knee for about a day. I still laugh about it to this day.


Posted by SiLVeR54 on Apr. 25 2001,03:33
dude, that DIDN'T HURT?? what the FUCK is wrong with you?
omg.. 20 stitches... jeez... *note to self: don't be a moron.*

ok, yea, but still.... DAMN! what else can I tell you guyz.... hmmm..
oh yea:

when i wuz young, i was playing at a playground. There were these bars where you climb up. The bars on a 35 degree slant, and handles along the sides. Of course, begin a dumbass little lam0r, I don't think about using them. 3 steps later, i find myself falling a looooong way down. It had to be.. 16 feet high. I fell and landed directly on my chin, splitting it along the bottom. Blood everywhere... screaming, kicking, pounding of fists. I actually blacked out from loss of blood! When i awoke, i was in the hospital, and my Mom was talking to the Doctor. I over-heard that stitches were recommended, and they could do it as soon as possible. My mom.. she is SO cheap. She asks how much it will cost, the doctor answers, and my mom says: "No, its ok, he'll be fine!" I'm lying there, and i can't feel anything below my nose! I fall asleep again. The next day (and yes, i was sleeping) my mom tells me that i have recovered, but there will be a small scar on my chin due to NOT GETTING STICHES! stupid parents.... I WANTED STICHES!! grrr.... anywayz! thats my story!

peace,

silver

Hmmmm, I have a few of these. (I was a dumb kid...at the young age of 17-ish)

1) Around the age of 12 I was playing with a knife and a box (good fun!) and accidentally decided to stab my knee as hard as I could. The knife went on the inside of my left leg, right between my knee and that tendon that holds your thy on. It went in slightly over 1 inch. Despite bleeding profusely for the rest of the day and not being able to get off the couch for over a week I never went to the hospital.

2) I rode my bike down a very steep hill and over a jump. I flew for about 6 feet, and slid for about 6 more. This broke my collarbone, so I rode my bike home (~2 miles). When I got home I called my mom at work:
ME: hey mom, I think I broke my collarbone.
MOM: no you didn’t, if you did you would be in too much pain to call me.
ME: but it really hurts, are you sure?
MOM: you’re fine.
Two weeks later I RE-broke it at work and finally went to a chiropractor.
CHIROPRACTOR: Dear god! This thing’s been broken for weeks!
I still give my mom hell about that one.

3) ANOTHER time I was hauling ass through a field on my motorcycle when I crested a hill only to find a huge ditch for my front tire to drop in. On my way through the handlebars I broke three ribs and covered my body in fresh scabs.

4) Then there was the time that my neighbor managed to deep-fry the entire top of my left foot while we were trying to cook fish in a drunken state. That was good times.


Through this and so, so much more I have never actually gone to the hospital aside from mandatory physicals in high school. I think I have some sort of strange phobia.

Posted by melk0r on Apr. 25 2001,18:21
i have many bike stories
1) this one time we were "mud-bogging" in like this foot deep stuff on our bikes, and theres no way you can make it through that without like getting super-momentum. this is the cool part : i got up a shitload of speed, and raced into there, halfway through, i hit a log or something, and i just fly. it was the coolest thing, because i landed in water. i felt like superman. highly recommended.

2)when i was like five, my sister was babysitting me, and she was like sixteen or so, i was like five. i ask for chocolate milk, she says no, so i decide to climb up myself and get it. i do a faceplant off of the counter, land on my chin.

OH HOLY SHIT:
3) this one time, two years ago (14) me and my friend took his four wheeler into the next valley. he lived in reno, so we basically went towards cali (west). we stay out a whole night camping and shit. on our way home, after many wierd things (only explain if i have to) we were almost to the summit of the mountian. to get there we had to go up a little section, then turn right about 70degrees. so he cuts off the corner, while we're still going up, and hit a ditch head on. front tire hits the ditch, pops it up, he guns it, back tires keep going while we flip over backwards. the thing fell straight on me. it was sweet

4) same friend as reno, different bike. he has this XR 80 from like 1978 or something, and we would just go riding all around. one time he hit a bump going about twenty(i had his real motorcycle pants on) and i fell off the back, onto the fender. it kinda caves in, hitting and rubbing against the tire. i hold on to him, in the process dragging my feet on the ground and grinding my genitilia into the tire.
no harm done. thankfully.


Posted by melk0r on Apr. 25 2001,18:33
you know what, i realized that the thing that happened to me while camping in the valley was indeed fucking weird as all hell.

after we had found a suitable spot, we started to explore the surrounding enviroment, being such good boy scouts that we are. we find a tent like a hundred yards away, which is REALLY suspicious. we investigate.

when we go into the tent we find books, shitload of ramen, and canned beans, a backpack, and a buncha those little cheesy things that they sell at outdoor stores. (waterproof matches, waterproof match containers, solar blankets, stuff the make you think is essential, but is really stupid.)

after searching for a bit, finding a porn, we find these journal enteries.

so we read them. they are gruesome. what we deducted from them is that this guy was some ex-coast guard that had just moved from ohio to reno. after doing so he divorced his wife, all this shit.

THE JUICY PART
these letters also contain a lot of "documentation" of his experiences with the sexual encounters he had with his daughter. shit like she blackmailed him, aka, have sex with me or i tell mommy. how she forced him, aka come into the room naked and start carressing him while he's watching tv and such. realllly fucked up shit. im sorry that i ripped them up. (actually i read them after we had crashed at the top of the mountain, cause i was kinda shaken.. they didnt help. also, we camped a 100 yards away from this fool. i dunno if he was there or not, but fuck. and, i kinda just threw them up into the air in disgust. they are long gone)

I'm pretty sure LSD eyedrops would work, but I haven't ever heard of any for sale. LSD doesn't really cause seizures in people.

On the other hand, PCP is available in eyedrops and causes that sort of thing.

Hey I remember this one with bikes a couple of years ago, nothing big- but I'll post it anyways-

I was coming back from getting something from the local mall and there was this NARROW chance I could've gotten through a little crease, two poles on each side. So I thought, what the hell, I feel lucky.

Boy was I wrong, I rammed into the pole and my bikes rear went up in the air, and i got thrown way off and slid on the asphalt.

I felt so aweful! At the same time I fell off pretty cool! So anyhow I went home and that was that. (Couple scrapes)


Posted by Frosty on Apr. 26 2001,05:16
Well it didn't...i dunno. As for bikes, i have a story about that too. Back when I was like...well, 10 i guess, my friend and I would do all sorts of weird roleplaying stuff. (mostly with legos) Well his house was on top of a HUGE hill that was really fun to bike down...well one day we were going down this hill and for whatever reason our bikes weren't really bikes, but they were horses! So i'm standing up in my 'saddle' and my horse is galloping down this hill and i reach back to smack it's rump so it'll go faster! Little did I realize at that point that i wasn't skilled enough to stand up on my bike AND only go one-handed, much less at high speeds. I've never had my bike twist under me so much. It went back and forth for maybe a second before the front wheel went hard to the right...the handlebar caught me directly in the chest and knocked the wind out of me, then me and the bike went down, sliding about 15 feet across the pavement. Road rash DOES hurt. Incidentally, we figured it was a bad idea to try and walk back UP the hill, so I limped to my house which was a lot farther away. I wasn't a very smart 10 year old. :-\
