My whole life I NEVER broke ANY bones. It's something that I was incredibly proud of. Keyword: was. I had a gym class my senior year of high school. One day our teacher gave us the options of playing dodgeball or ping pong. None of my friends wanted to play ping pong so we all played dodgeball. I wasn't participating that much so what happened next was shocking. All of a sudden, a dodgeball comes flying towards me. I lifted my hands to protect myself and the ball just barely got me. But it did get me. It nailed me in the pinky. Almost instantly, my finger started to swell. I asked if I could go to the nurse for an ice pack because my teacher told me I probably just jammed it. Later that day, I learned that it wasn't jammed; it was broken. The dodgeball hit my finger head on and caused my bones to crush against each other and a piece of my bone chipped off underneath. So much for the whole "I've never broken a bone" thing I had going on.

Maybe I should have paid attention when I watched this movie.
