Onestar to the face after a knotted bind. So glad it wasn’t anything metal or heavier. Because of that accident I adopted the habit of always throwing a clean frontstyle bind before every breakaway, and I haven’t had it happen since 🙂 [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/c/8/3/c83de11f5f7ca2dd90d7634935f10e81f4cf2478.jpeg "CLYW Chief Head Injury") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=on4Q-gzollA) Classic video. ---

When I had been yoyoing for a few months, I went to visit my friends in another city (I spent summers in Toronto, lived in Montreal). All excited to show off my new skills, I pulled my YYJ Speeder out of my pocket and threw a breakaway. Turns out the yoyo was knotted, got halfway down and snapped back, flew up, hit me in the nose. The impact was enough to both leave a long red scratch along my nose AND burst a blood vessel in my nose. The result was tons of blood everywhere, and my friends not being very impressed with my skills 😛 ---

I rung my bell pretty good one time when I took a Mega SpinFaktor to the face. It hit me right in the eye, and it was almost swollen completely shut within a few hours. ---

Just 5 minutes ago, I did a gravity pull, turns out the string had a knot, came back in a weird way then stopped halfways and hit me in the PP. Ugh. ---

I split my eyebrow open with a Wooly Markmont. Should have probably got stitches but I just put on a butterfly band-aid. Base knot 1, JetEyeNight 0. ---

Am I a bad person if I didn’t cringe when the yoyo hit your head, but when it started hitting the floor? ---
