what is the worst injury you have had with a yoyo??? i have been working on a double or nothing and didn’t pay attention after a bind and the yoyo swang up and hit me on the wrist bone. last week i did the same thing but the knot was deeper in the spool and it swang up and hit me in the eye bone. that really hurt but at least my wife got a good laugh! its kind of like stumping your toe…you are never really expecting it but when it happens you sure know it… :o

bruises on my face and on my arm, and a scar on my finger on the knuckle, it is permanent and started bleeding everywhere, the worst yoyo injury in my opinion is brandon baines’ scar on his lower forehead from the 2008 international yoyo open

I was yoyoing at school, and I was talking to friends, I went to bind, and I hit myself in the eye. I could not really see out of that eye very well for a week or so.

I have never had a yoyo injury. Although my friend tried to do a trapeze and threw it too hard, which resultet in a hit directly to the eye. He is now traumatised and he won’t dare to try trapeze again.
