OUCH!!! Well here is my amazing story.
I have low iron in my blood and am a little animic, which means I am succeptable to black outs and tunnelvision. I get tunnel vision on ocasion when I stand up too fast and because of my iron/animicy I get REALY bad nose bleeds. So anyways....I was watching tv one day about 2 or so years ago, and went to the bathroom which is right across the hall from my bedroom, you don't even have to turn to go into the bathroom door it's a straight walk from one door 2 feet to the next. I think I went in there to get a q-tip or something like kleenex, anyhoo I went in there for 2 seconds and turned to come back to my room. Well I had my weight bench set up in my room and because what I'm about to type is why it is no longer in my room. As I was leaving the bathroom I remember getting tunnel vision and it happened so fast I didn't realize I was blacking out. 10-15 minutes later I wake up streched across the hall face down in the floor. I heard something yelling "oh God it hurts it hurts so much" and I thought it was the tv but it was ME! I realized I was on the floor and my face hurt. I picked myself up and my teeth hurt and my nose was bleeding BAD. As I was picking myself up I happened to look up and saw I was less than 6 inches away from my weight bench and the leg of it curves out along with the bench part for about 5 feet and where you hook a stand up attachment was 2 inches of a bolt sticking straight up. If I were another step further ahead and blacked out not only would I have had a broken nose I would have been dead. I was lying on the side of my face and the whole right side of it hurt, but any closer and a bolt would have been in my temple and I wouldn't be here today. COOL HUH? :wink:
I too apologize for such a long post.
