seau goes down on his knees and his teamates come and slap himon the back of his head and congradulate him on the hit.....


he reels back and you see his arm hanging straight down from his chest mid forarm while the rest of his arm was against his chest, it dangled back and forth

my dad has some nasty home video from when he played high school ball for South Johnston, I've never seen bones break like that before. The one I remember best was a player broke his leg midway between the foot and the knee and it was just dangling and flopping around as they carried him away.

11/27/2006 10:57:26 AM

^ lol that's about as unsafe as possible. I'm surprised he didnt bleed to death ;x

Sid Justice (or whatever name he was using at the time) breaking his leg doing a kick from the top rope against scott steiner a few years ago was pretty nasty

11/27/2006 11:08:13 AM

mcgahee, hands down.

11/27/2006 11:11:00 AM

video of maghee's leg ?


the biker in the tour de france that slid off the side of the mountain and died was pretty disturbing.

a few years ago, ed mccaffery (denver broncos) got a helmet hit to his shin bone similar to that hit on paterno the other week, and from what i remember that was quite gross seeing his leg dangle there

11/27/2006 11:22:32 AM

Napoleon McCallum suffered one of the worst I've ever seen.


From http://www.nfl.com/news/story/6944501

Quote :

"Anyone who watched the Monday Night Football season opener on Sept. 5, 1994 between the Los Angeles Raiders and the San Francisco 49ers at Candlestick Park remembers. 49ers linebacker Ken Norton Jr. tackled McCallum and in the pileup McCallum dislocated his knee, tearing three ligaments, ripping his calf and hamstring muscles from the bone, and incurring nerve and artery damage."

I second this

my dad was actually at a game where this happened

11/27/2006 11:39:48 AM

Tyrone Prothero (sp?) for Alabama, last leason, caught a touchdown and his fucking leg just snapped about halfway between the ankle and the knee, it was difficult to watch!

11/27/2006 11:40:25 AM

i was gonna put willis too, his leg went backwards

11/27/2006 11:45:45 AM

One of the worst I've seen is that eye gouge that happened to Villanova's Allen Ray during last year's NCAA Tourney. they wouldn't even replay it on SportsCenter

[Edited on November 27, 2006 at 11:54 AM. Reason : .]

11/27/2006 11:48:04 AM

^^^^^ oh hell yeah. i saw most of the ones mentioned in this thread, and that mcallum injury was the worst i've ever seen. i was in 11th grade, and i still remember abc showing the replay over and over again, until finally the announcers quit talking and realized how gruesome that shit was.

Clint Malarchuck of the Sabres, youtube it, it's fucking nasty

11/27/2006 12:10:41 PM

how did his throat get cut by a skate? I just watched the video and I couldn't see where a skate was near his thoat at any point. Maybe if it had been more towards the center of the frame.

11/27/2006 12:17:27 PM

A pitcher for the Reds about 10 years ago had the same thing happen to him that happened to Seau. I remember seeing his arm hang from mid-forearm.

no one is mentioning the tyrone prothro injury from last year; that was pretty gross

Jason Kendall

Bryant Young's leg turning to rubber vs the Giants

The Mike Cameron - Carlos Beltran collision in the outfield a year or so ago.

The boxer who had that huge bump on his forehead (there was an "OWNED" pic on here with it).

The dude who got his eye poked out in the NCAA tourney last year was pretty gross.

But he turned out to be fine.

from Wiki:

Quote :

"The notable incident occurred during a game on March 22, 1989 between the visiting St. Louis Blues and Malarchuk's Buffalo Sabres. Steve Tuttle of the Blues and Uwe Krupp of the Sabres collided at the mouth of the goal, and Tuttle's skate caught Malarchuk on the neck, slicing open his external jugular vein. With pools of blood collecting on the ice, Malarchuk somehow left the ice under his own power with the assistance of his team's trainer, Jim Pizzutelli. Many spectators were physically sickened by the sight with seven fainting and two suffering heart attacks"

Good think they don't watch nc state athletics or they'd all be dead.

Freddie Mitchell as a freshman at UCLA. Broke his leg while running along the sideline. His foot managed to rotate 180 degrees and the front of his shoe managed to kick the back of his helmet on the way to the turf.

11/27/2006 3:05:10 PM

i love that nobody even looks at him with his pools of blood for maybe 10 seconds....his life is flashing before his eyes and as he looks around, nobody notices. thats kinda sad.

11/27/2006 3:05:22 PM

Prothro last year against Florida was pretty bad

11/27/2006 3:06:52 PM

HOLY SHIT!!!! ahhhhhhhh im gonna faint

11/27/2006 3:08:55 PM

Its on YouTube.

I'm not even going to post the link, but its fucking disgusting.

Dude hits the Turn buckle from 50 ft in the air.

Face turns Purple.

He basically dies at the scene.

11/27/2006 3:09:57 PM

Who was the catcher that got his testicles ruptured on the foul tip? That was nasty...
