J3FF3R00 Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 (edited) I had my LA housewarming party planned for 2pm today. Beforehand, I figured I would go on my favorite bike ride this morning above and around the Hollywood Reservoir and back. At the very bottom of the hill, I rode threw a puddle and about 10 feet later, my back tire skid out... and that is all I remember. I was woken up shortly after by a guy who found me unconscious in the road. He asked me if I was ok and if I needed an ambulance. I asked if I was in the bushes. I must have been dreaming that I was laying in some bushes or flowers. I also felt extremely nauseous, so I asked him if I vomited. He said no and said I should try and move out of the road. He he helped me up and into someone's driveway and called an ambulance for me. Long story short. I was badly scraped up on my arms, legs and shoulder, couldn't walk on my left heel and had some impact to my head/face. In the hospital, I got cleaned up, x-rayed, cat-scanned and bandaged. They determined I broke 2 bones in my face. It doesn't look that bad. It is sore and hurts a bit to smile big or to eat crunchy food, otherwise, you wouldn't even guess. They prescribed me some antibiotics and hydrocodone (vicodin) gave me crutches too. It is a really good thing I had a helmet on. I could be dead. Also, I was about 40 minutes late, but I made it to my party! I made guacamole and mostly sat. I was disappointed that I couldn't swim in the pool, but it was fun. I think my bike might be fucked. I'll probably be ok. on a side note, they gave me a disc with my cat-scan images, but they are all weird extensions like dll and shit. I can't open them and wanted to post them to facebook or make an art project with them or something. Any tips?

Guest Rambo Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 remember that time you held a fart in when you were in a elevator? This is because of that. That's why you broke your face.

J3FF3R00 Posted June 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 (edited) Thanks guys. Yer all schweethartz On 6/26/2011 at 11:17 AM, jules said: did you have a concussion? what happened to your heel? Definite cuncussion. I'm not sure what happened to the heel. My guess is that i bruised the bone and thats why it hurts to walk on it. Unfortunately, I don't remember anything after the rear wheel of my bike skidding. It's super crazy to wake up and find out you are all kinds of messed up and you're not where you thought you were. I don't know if I was skidding to avoid someone or something, or of it was just that my tire was wet. It's kinda like I was abducted by aliens. On 6/26/2011 at 4:52 PM, kaen said: pics or gtfo Dood.

Root5 Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 Glad you're alright. Wearing your helmet while riding your bike is about as IDM as it gets. Funny thing, I knew someone else who broke his face in a biking accident. He was drunk at a soccer game in Germany, and decided to bike home, and after a couple second on the bike landed face first. He needed to stay in the hospital for about 2 weeks while they repaired his cheek bone.
