That's what happens when a 300 kg supercharger meets your leg.

Aw shit!! How did that happen??

So many interesting liquids coming out of your skin!:eek

Had to remove a broken railcar unloader and another contractor tethered it and it wasn't secure enough. Broke free and pinned my leg against a concrete wall.

 

[MagicJ]

Ouch !!

:eek that looks like it hurts...

Well, at least now we know what happens. Was it hot? looks like you got some burns mixed in with the grazes, cuts and crushes. Bones ok? Thinking we should start a movie list to give you some ideas incase you get some days off. Aparently Wyrmwood is quite good if you like backyard zombie insta cult classics. Might help put the leg in perspective.

No, no heat, that's lymphatic fluid pooling just under the skin. This happens when there is significant localized pressure. It looks even worse today and hurts like a mofo!

Here's what got me:

I hope not, that 615 URAI Roots Blower looks like a sweet bit of kit!

bloody 'ell! How long were you pinned? And are you going to carry a swiss army knife in future just in case you need to pull a Aron Ralston?

 

[ReeferRob]

It never pinned me, just smashed me against the wall, then rolled off onto the ground. It's funny you mentioned a Swiss Army knife, I always carry one with me, it's saved my ass more times than I care to think about.

See, that doesnt sound any nicer than having it pin you. I usually only carry a gerber eab, plenty of times when I miss the swiss. Hope the legs feeling better today. Please know that under making light of your injury, I wish you a speedy recovery as that looks brutal.

 

[ReeferRob]

Didn't break anything Cody, not even the part. It's even more purple today and hurts like hell. I know y'all are just messin' with me and sometimes, laughter is the best medicine. No worries.

Hope your feeling better soon :)

The swelling is down, that's the good news. It looks like a shark bit a chunk out of my leg where it got hit and it's throbbing like a toothache now. Still waiting for an MRI to see what's going on in there. There's either a muscle or tendon that's been cut.

 

[MQ-9]

Figures. Was hoping it was all just going to be surface damage. Heres to it being something thats just going to take a little bit longer to naturally heal.

 

[VaultBoy]

Thats no good mate I hope it goes well with the MRI and you get back on your feet ASAP ;)
