Try to list all the times you got hit in the head or hurt by a yoyo and what yoyo it was that hurt you.

Shutter: I looked like a unicorn for about a week  
Wooly marmot: It wasn’t that bad but hurt when it happened  
Speedaholic: hit me in the temple right before I started to write this post.

Yesterday I got bonked by my Sasquatch. Hurt like hell, and when I laugh it hurts as I’m stretching my forehead muscles. It made a really loud sound, like my skull cracked (but as far as I know, it didn’t).

This morning actually, _I’M GUESSING_ I let too much slack string fall when I was flipping a brother slack, and my Cyborg shot up and clocked me right at the hairline.

I was wearing a hat, but it still left my skull sore enough for me to sit down for a while.

Also, cut to the end of this video

Shutter, but not my current one.  
Cyborg  
Classics (two different ones)  
and some other times that I just don’t remember what the yoyo was.

Hit myself with my Chief once, cut my head open right above my eye… Still got a scar there, not surprising considering how much I was bleeding. Head wounds bleed a lot!

It happens to me all the time. When you flick start the yoyo out in front of you and you miss the string for the bind…o I don’t think you were talking about that head.

Yesterday I didn’t realize my revival had a knot… I threw it full force and it came back and clocked me in the head. Who was the Duncan guy that this happened to again? Brandon Jackson?

I have it my self in the head with a yoyo many a time. But the worst clunk I had was with a knot. The yoyo hit me in the elbow and caused lots of blood. My dad who is a doctor told me I busted a vein. It hurt

Now, I was using MagicYoYo D5’s, plastics w/ metal rings like a protostar… Doing a 3A tangler… Let’s just say I didn’t think my yoyos could go that fast. I had a bump on my nose and my forehead for a week LOL
