    Talking HEXUS Skeleton

    Prompted by Tumble's broken finger, I wondered how long it would take to make a complete skeleton of hexus broken bone incidents... seem to remember quite a few off the top of my head, so not long I bet. Post me your injuries & I'll paste you in.



    (All I have ever had is a suspected broken toe - so I will wait & see if there are better claims first).

    I cant take part... I've never broken a bone.

    I did however Break Wedgeh from GameOn's ribs. So I've physically broken someone else's bones.

    Re: HEXUS Skeleton

    Foot, ankle, wrist and cheekbone have all been broken at some point in the past for me

    Don't know how I forgot, but you can include nose as well

    skull, left humerus, all fingers and one thumb, both ankles, both wrists, 2 ribs on the right side, nose (at least 7 times), most of my toes, metatarsal on the right side. If we count dislocations too I can contribute my left shoulder.

    And all we need now is someone with a broken ear, and we've got the set. Fantastic effort

    I am editing in process, some bones may have been allotted on a first come first served basis. megah0, sounds like you need a whole skeleton to yourself

    Re: HEXUS Skeleton

    I've cracked my sternum snowboarding.

    I wasn't even trying to do anything cool - in fact, I thought I was stationary. It was in a complete white-out and I was looking back up the mountain whilst waiting for my mates. Turned out I was actually sliding down the hill backwards quite fast, hit a lump in the snow, flipped over backwards and landed on my head (fortunately wearing helmet), then landed on my front. Sadly I had a bulky camera sitting in a chest pocket, which is what cracked my sternum. Ow.

    Broke my right wrist when I was 4. Have a recurring dislocation of the left shoulder. But thankfully I don't suffer with a clicking neck.
