I was wondering what is the worst yoyo injury you have every suffered? I busted my head open yesterday. The Hspin Cut is aptly named. It’s about a 3/4" gash that bled and bled, I almost fell over from the impact. Pictures coming later.

Almost nothing.  
Worst I’ve done is hit my elbow hard enough that I couldn’t move it for the rest of the day.

Back when I was throwing responsive yo-yo’s all the time I got a coldfusion (my first metal) and occasionally it would bind up and get stuck and I could usually throw a hard breakaway to get the knot out. One time I got a real knot in there about a foot and a half down the string and didn’t know it, threw a hard breakaway thinking I’d get the bind out, it swung right up, hit me in the head and knocked me out (and to the ground) for a few seconds. Luckily my mom was right there and iced it right away otherwise I’d have had a horrendous bump on my head at school the next day.

I don’t do much extreme yoyo-ing like you all… So… It was just a blue-black on my finger when tugging my bumblebee after a sleeper :-\

One time I was trying to break my record for Around the Worlds ( Geez how many yoyo injuries are because of this) and my yoyo had a knot a few inches down the string. So I swung it forward as hard as possible, and the yoyo hit me right above the eyes. Luckily it was plastic.
