Yesterday I went to my friends house, so we began to skateboard, I went to attempt a double verial kickflip but Imessed up and fell straight on my back. I then went home and told my mom that I was not feeling good,I told her that I fell off my skateboard. So she took me to the Emergenacy Room and I went to get x-rays. It showed that I just had a bruse, but today I geta phone call from ''ER'' and they say I did have a cracked spine. I'm nervous as hell what should I do? I already missed 1 day of school.

There is not much really to do. They might put you in a back wrap or brace if it is severe enough, but most likely they will simply give you some drugs and tell you to take it easy.

You could have been paralyzed the first time.

My suggestion is screw the ER, go see a real doctor.

Go to the ER and get the X-rays sent to the Doctor first. Then simply schedule an appointment.

1. If you "cracked" your spine, which if you had gone to the ER you wouldn't be saying because you would know which vertebrae ect, you wouldn't have went home and told your mom. You would have curled up into a ball and cried until the ambulance got there.
2. The ER could not release you if anything was wrong with your spine. The doctor that signed off on the release would loose their license. I don't care if they thought it was a bruise, you show up with a huge black and blue mark on your spine they know something is wrong.
3. The term you were looking for was double varial flip, not double verial kickflip. There is no chance you landed on your back when attempting this. If anything, you would roll your ankle and/or land on your nose. So either, you suck, you don't know your tricks, or you're lying (which #1 & 2 support).

Now, I'm not calling you a liar. I'm just pointing out the flaws in this sci-fi story.

Sci-Fi stories are fakes.

Also when I did go to ER,I was not in pain, my friend got 3 of his ribs busted was he crying, No. He didn't feel hardly anything. Also the right term for a skateboarding trick is called. A Double Verial Kickflip not a Double Verial, i'vew been skateboarding for 7 years, I think I know the moves by now. The doctor said that I had a bruse on my spinal area, but then today someone from ER calls my house phone and says I have a crack in my spine. What I'm currently doing is, I put a t-shirt on and then put a pillow between my back so the pain won't hurt so bad.

The worst thing that's ever happened to me while skateboarding, I was goin really fast and got into a tre-flip position, and I flipped it and it did what it was supposed to, but the problem was I was about to land it, and one of my feet missed the board and it twisted back and i broke my ankle...Actually..There's two things.....Here's number two...Ok..So my friend Eban has a skatepark in his garage and me and 3 of my friends were just chillin and stuff, until Eban said.."Austin, go down the quarter pipe and go up my other one until you're about 5 feet in the air and do a triple kickflip"..Well, knowing me, I was down to do it...I went up to his quarter pipe, thought to myself, I have to do this..So..I dropped in and started pushing...So I get to the other ramp, get about 5-6 feet in the air, went for the triple, spun it once, twice, three times and came down....Right as I was about to land it, my board fell out from under my feet and I fell and my leg got a huge gash from my skateboard...So I had to go to the ER and all that...It sucked..

Are you saying your story is fake?

Also when I did go to ER,I was not in pain, my friend got 3 of his ribs busted was he crying, No. He didn't feel hardly anything.
The drug you're looking to name is oxycodone, because without it there is no chance you didn't feel pain with cracked vertebrae. You pick, you're a drug addict or a liar.

Also the right term for a skateboarding trick is called. A Double Verial Kickflip not a Double Verial, i'vew been skateboarding for 7 years, I think I know the moves by now.
Evidently not. The term is a double varial flip. Reference: Double Varial Flip (http://www.skateboard-city.com/double-varialflip.php)
You might call it that for short, although that isn't shorter, but there is actually no varial kickflip. Anyway, a varial includes the kickflip, it is redundant calling it a varial kickflip. That is like saying that you did a double 360 instead of a 720.

The doctor said that I had a bruse on my spinal area, but then today someone from ER calls my house phone and says I have a crack in my spine. What I'm currently doing is, I put a t-shirt on and then put a pillow between my back so the pain won't hurt so bad.
Bullshit. You don't walk around with a cracked spine. Even if they had made the mistake of releasing you yesterday, they would have sent an ambulance to pick you up today.

I don't give a shit if you don't believe me dirka. You're an ass trying to make up some lies. I don't care anymore screw this thread I'll believe myself.
I've skated since I could breathe and I've seen spinal injuries happen. You're a liar.

I missed a month of school because I was sick. Luckily, it was considered a chronic illness so I didn't fail this year! When I got back, it was a killer though.

My advice would be to kick back, relax, get a doctor's note and enjoy your little break. The only thing you need to worry about is making up the schoolwork. But which is more important? Your spine or your workload. Take the lazy way out.

I've never seen a spinal injury, but I've seen my friend get his teeth pushed up into his skull while he was skateboarding. He could still walk around, but it's probably not the same thing since teeth aren't vital for walking. ;)

I would object to this, as I could and did walk fine with mine. A hairline fracture (which is still considered cracked) doesn;t impair movement, and can actually be "pain free" for a while.

And oxycodone is da bamb however.

Doesn't matter. A crack turns into a slipped disk turns into you being paralyzed. That isn't an injury to take lightly.

Logical flaw. You might include half-truths. You may be psychotic. Why you are doing it doesn't concern me.

Also Dirka i'm sorry that you're god and you know everything. I most listen to you instead of the doctors.
The doctors that let you out of the hospital with a life threatening injury? Take one wrong step, pinch a nerve ending in just the right way, and you'll go into shock then into a coma and game over.

I won't disagree. I'll just say that if he injured it skateboarding, has a bruise, it most likely isn't the pain free type. Those nerve endings obviously were traumatized if he could feel something, otherwise he would have felt nothing at all.

Right, because a varial itself includes a kickflip, so if you inverted the rotation, you need a word to describe it. Hence, heelflip, since there is no longer a kickflip but actually a heelflip. Another word for it would be Double Pop-Shove-It Heelflip.

Because I have asthma, and I had an asthma attack, and I didn't go to school, would that still be treated as an absence?

You can make classes up. It is treated as an absence. Just not an illegal one. You could request that it wouldn't be, but that is at the discretion of your school and teachers. They might want to home tutor you that day, or something of the sort.

Talking about pain and breaks..... it depends on your pain tolerance.
I have a *very* high tolerance, I am impervious to large amounts of pain (but small things like pinches hurt like hell).
For example, a guy took a swing at me. Hard. And I caught his punch with my hand, which broke my middle finger. I didn't realize it was broken until 2 days later when I noticed some swelling and went to get an x-ray.
Anotehr example would be a sledding accident when I was younger, and went head first into a block of ice. Broke one of my front teeth in half. Didn't feel a thing.

Not really defending anyone, just saying my 2 cents.

I got a few more stories, too, in case that doesn't convince anyone.
:)

dirka dirka
03-28-2007, 07:25 PM
Tolerance only works with actual pains cause by outside trauma. When you directly hurt a nerve and/or ending, your tolerance means very little. Mental tolerance might still play a role, but most of what I have is physical tolerance, so I think that is mostly what is generally the case.

Anyone else smell bullshit?Smells like burning rubber.. ...

most of what he said...is true.

The doctor said that I had a bruse on my spinal area, but then today someone from ER calls my house phone and says I have a crack in my spine. The three main reasons I suspect you are lying:
1) Precident: You've done nothing in this community but be an attention whore, and very specifically have tried various methods of getting people to like you, including but not limited to: a) asking if they want to be your friend, b) telling them you'll make them clan leader, c) begging, d) pretending none of your history exists, e) creating sob stories (such as about your family situation, and many others), f) sucking up, g) pretending to be other people, etc etc etc. The only thing you haven't tried is just being a decent human being. I see this as nothing more then another sad attempt, a different angle, to be liked.

2) The description of the fall: as dirka mentioned, that trick can't be screwed up in such a way as to have you land on your back. I'm not a skateboarder, in the least, but I've had my share of being forced to watch X games. You'd have to *try* and fall on your back from 99% of stunts. Furthermore, it's rather difficult to actually land flat on your back. See your head or your butt get in the way and prevent it.

3) The description of the ER visit: You see x-rays aren't like blood tests, biopsies, or bacteria cultures. The results don't come in the next day - they are immediate. As such, there'd be no reason for you to be sent home, and THEN have the ER "discover" the injury the next day. Once you leave the ER and the doctor finishes the paperwork on the case, there's no real reason to continue reviewing it.

Exactly, you must of misunderstood what I said. I said that they did check my x-rays and said that I was fine and there was no signs of cracks, but then the next day which is today, they call my house phone and say they did spot something, they found a crack.

1. If you "cracked" your spine, which if you had gone to the ER you wouldn't be saying because you would know which vertebrae ect, you wouldn't have went home and told your mom. You would have curled up into a ball and cried until the ambulance got there.

If it was a small hairline fracture on the outer rim of a vertebrae, and it happened quick enough, he might have gotten away without any initial pain. But anywhere from thirty to forty five minutes later you would have cramped up or gone numb.

I cracked the 5th bone in your spine, I forgot what it's called, I never got alook at my x-rays but if it didn't hurt that bad, it must be a very small crack.


Landing: When I did the double varial flip, I landed 2 feet on the tail, I was also on a slanted drive way. So when I hit the tail with both feet, I fell back exactly like you would when you would slip on a banner peal. I fell very fast, luckly I saved my head from hitting the ground.

Yeah they don't randomly review closed ER cases the next day for no reason. The x-ray doesn't develop better, potential fractures don't grow on the previously taken picture, etc etc. They looked, they saw nothing, there was no reason to look again a day after you left.

What this boils down to in the end is that 1) you're lying, or 2) you're an idiot posting inaccurate information and making a mountain out of a mole hill. If it was a significant injury, it wouldn't have been completely missed by the Emergency Room staff when you were there. If it's an insignificant hairline stress fracture, it doesn't matter. I ran cross country on a fractured fibia for a month.

Either way, your story doesn't add up, and yet another one of your attempts for sympathy/friendship/whatever has failed you. Sorry.

You can't do that. If you fall very fast, enough so that the force can cause the very BONES in your back to crack, I can assure you the miniscule MUSCLES you have in your neck aren't strong enough to prevent your head from hitting as well.

When you skate, you get use to falling is right posistions uni.

I cracked the 5th bone in your spine, I forgot what it's called, I never got alook at my x-rays but if it didn't hurt that bad, it must be a very small crack.
The.. 5th.. bone.. in your spine. You need to understand what a spinal cord is. Those bones are protecting a huge cord of nerves. If you so much as look at one, you are going to be effecting tons of nerve endings.

Landing: When I did the double varial flip, I landed 2 feet on the tail, I was also on a slanted drive way. So when I hit the tail with both feet, I fell back exactly like you would when you would slip on a banner peal. I fell very fast, luckly I saved my head from hitting the ground.
Luckily you saved your head from hitting the ground? I'd rather have a concussion than be paralyzed for the rest of my life.

Do this. Scan something that will prove it. Take a picture of your back. Scan the X-Ray. Scan a document related to the incident. For all I care, have your mom write you a letter and scan that.

I ran cross country on a fractured fibia for a month.
So you ran track for a month with a broken fish in your pocket? (Excuse my poor humor.)

Wtf is a banner peel??

Also when I did go to ER,I was not in pain, my friend got 3 of his ribs busted was he crying, No. He didn't feel hardly anything.

Hold on just a minute. Your friend hurt himself too. So you saw him fall and get hurt (or vice versa) and yet you continue to skateboard? I was hoping you had matured. This does not seem true deep, I am sorry but it doesnt.

Oh and... um buddy? When you break your ribs you can hear them snap and the pain knocks the wind out of you. It makes it hard to breathe and your eyes water even if you are not crying.

Furthermore, you don't practice hard enough if you wind up in the ER (which I still don't believe).

Whip lash I believe is the medical term, or not so medical, that describes that.whiplash is slightly different - i believe it's when you get into a car crash (or something similar), and your head gets slammed forward and then back right away (in a whip-like motion).

Tolerance only works with actual pains cause by outside trauma. When you directly hurt a nerve and/or ending, your tolerance means very little. Mental tolerance might still play a role, but most of what I have is physical tolerance, so I think that is mostly what is generally the case.

....not really. Not that I'm saying your wrong, I'm just saying that ever person is different.
I inherited my tolerance from my father, who (true story!) broke his neck once and cracked it a second time. Impossible? No. He was up and running aorund about a day after each accident. No pain. Even to this day, he's fine. Even now and then his arms will go to sleep for no reason, but he's never had any pain. Doctors say he should be dead, with a clean break in his neak, and a hairline fracture, but he's 2 rooms down from me on the computer right now.

Oh, and uni, I have had WAY worse experiances in hospitals. And even I don't come close to some of the horror stories you can find on the net. Real true F'ups.

Almost by definition, if you do something and don't do it then something is wrong.

Which does not coordinate in any way to a spinal injury. A spinal injury at best gets worse with time. You said you felt it originally, so it isn't an issue of pain tolerance either. Hence: you lie.

I'll say it again. It doesn't matter how small the crack is. That is your spinal cord. There are BILLIONS of nerve endings in that region. If there was a crack, you wouldn't be home still, you would be at the hospital. This is the final key to your story being a lie.

I guarantee you that any half-decent hospital ER has a surgeon around at 8pm. Furthermore, if it's something so hard for the interns, residents, and attendings to distinguish that night that only a specialist can pick out, they don't call and say "ZomG it's definately teh crax!". They call you in for an MRI and further testing. But the fact of the matter is, once it's reviewed and the patient leaves, there's no reasons for doctors to re-review the x-ray. Heck holding a tuning fork to the kids back would determine if there's a fracture.

At this point we've boiled it down to 1) a lie, or 2) so insignificantly small of a fracture that an ER at 8pm couldn't find it on an x-ray, no nerve damage was done, and it doesn't really matter. I'm still for the former.

Yesterday I went to my friends house, so we began to skateboard, I went to attempt a double verial kickflip but Imessed up and fell straight on my back. I then went home and told my mom that I was not feeling good,I told her that I fell off my skateboard. So she took me to the Emergenacy Room and I went to get x-rays. It showed that I just had a bruse, but today I geta phone call from ''ER'' and they say I did have a cracked spine. I'm nervous as hell what should I do? I already missed 1 day of school.

My suggestion is to take a video of you trying to do a double varial kickflip. Then we can all see that you really suck at skateboarding and you are trying to sound cool by saying you can even attempt this trick.

Holy crap guys.

I jumped out of a 52 story window wrestling a bear covered in pudding.

Tapioca.

After breaking the fall with my forhead, I decided to punch semi's as they came at me on the interstate.

I only punched about 40 or so before that fucking bear came at me again. So I took a passing Hurst and beat his ass to shreads right there on exit 9.

Afterwards, I had a lunch of Habenero peppers and battery acid.

Then this morning I woke up falling out of an airplane. I know it wasn't a dream because this always happens. I broke the fall with my forhead again, except this time the impact was so large, it opened up a time loop, where I went back to fight nazi's.

Anyways, my foot hurts cause I stepped on it funny coming down the stairs, and my doctor says I might have herpes.

I don't suppose you could get a digital camcorder and go to the hospital and talk with your doctors?
Then post the video here on the forums...?


And, I feel like posting this story. Yes, I know this doesn't represent all hospitals, and yes, it doens't mean doctors act like this either, but...

During the summer, I had a severe accident. This was the one that kept me off the computer for a few months.
So.... it's a nice day. No, it's one of those perfect days. 70+ degrees, slight breeze, cloudless blue sky, you know. So, I'm breezing through the neighborhood on my bike, going to meet with some friends at the park.
Racing along, wind in my hair, perfect weather. It's a good day.
As I turn a corner (zooming along, of course), there is a car in front of me. Some guy backing out of his driveway.
I hit the car, do a "superman" over the top, and am heading for a tree traveling a little under the sound barrier.

When I come to a few seconds later, I'm laying on the ground, blood is around, and the guy is on his cell phone with 911.
So, I';m trying to figure out whats hurt, both my arms and my head is throbbing. The paramedics show up, check me over quickly, and determine I have a slight concussion and my left arm is broken.

So they shoot me down to the hospital. Doctors take some x-rays, confire my left arm is broken, set it and put it in a cast.
Gave me some mild painkiller and told me to go home.
Next day, I'm ok. So, I'm working on some paperwork and my right arm (the one I'm writing with) is hurting. I figure its just bruised.
Few days later, it's still hurting. So I go down to the hospital. A doctor comes in, checks my right arm. "Take some more painkiller" he said. :dry:
I asked for a second opinion. Another doctor comes in and discovers that my right arm is broken.

Now, seriously, when I came in the first time, they should ahve caught that. It's like, "here's this kid who hit a car and went head first into a tree. Check him over." And all they get are 50% of my injuries. (isn't that like an... F grade?)
So, again, not defending anyone, just saying, there might be some truth here.

I don't disagree. I'm just curious on how you know that specific of detail on that potential case?

I have Structual Scoliosis. I'm cool with my Chiropractor, and I've learned a lot from him. I actually met him at a grappling seminar. We were rolling, and as he had trained BJJ much longer than me he cranked my neck easily a few times. I asked him to cool it because I had neck problems, then he told me to come see him and he could try to fix it (isn't that the ultimate buisness model?). So I'm on more of a friendly level since I train with him, and I've heard of stuff like this as he tells me a lot about the people he sees. If he fell fast enough, it might not have initially hurt. Kind of like if a person gets shot there is no initial pain because it's so fast and/or breaks the nerves. If this was a small enough fracture on a less important area of the spine, he might not have had any initial pain.

EDIT: Learz, doctors suck. Don't bother. Go alternative medicine every chance possible. Chiropractics do more than just backs. I go to mine for everything. Injuries, sickness, corrections, everything.

meh - chiropractors can't do a lot. There are many natural methods of fighting disease, but severe infection, broken bones, etc you need antiobotics and an orthopedist for, respectively.

Anyway, I can see how he didn't feel it right away, but the late onset of his pain doesn't correspond to a changing x-ray one day later.

Let's break this down. Two possibilities:
1) your hands went down below you shoulders (by your waist/butt). Now this is inconsistent with your story (unless we take it as proof that you are an asshat/butthead) as that's now where your head is.
2) Your hands went down above your shoulders, up by your head somewhere. Now this would protect your head, but it's in no way a natural reflex. You just don't see people fall and put their hands behind their head. Or rather, when you see people covering their head, the reflex is also to curl up into a ball. Even if this did happen, you would have easily broken a finger or wrist.

That's sheer stupidity, and when I flame Deep it's in an effort to expose this sheer stupidity and wake him up to the fact he's only hurting himself. Deep is smart enough not to do this, he's a perfectly capable individual, I have seen it on occasion. But for some twisted reason he enjoys acting like a complete moron.

I resent that.... and I'd hate to be your friend. I mean, I'd make one joke and you'd never trust me for the rest of your life.... :dry:

But, now that it appears no one is willing to give Deepsea at least the benifit of the doubt, let me ask "ye doubters" a few questions....

Have you ever had a severe (and I mean severe) injury, and no one believes you? I have.
Have you ever experianced what Deepsea has (supposedly) experianced, firsthand?
Have you ever, ever, EVER walked a mile in Deepseas shoes?

Now that you are (hopefully) thinking about those questions, I'd like to ask one more.... and I'd like ALL the arguers to answer this:

Do you agree that there is an incredibily small chance that Deepsea is telling the truth?

Of course. I actually believed him from the first post. But people discovered holes in his story, and instead of being incensed that no one would believe him, Deep starts to change his story. You don't CYA if theres nothing to cover.

The chance he's telling the truth is about as big as the chance I'll find $20 on my apartment floor tomorrow. Slim, but definitely not impossible.

Learz, I'm a firm believer in the story of the boy who cried wolf. If you had made this thread, and then changed details, I would likely still believe you, or at least believe the story wasn't a bold-faced lie. That's because of experience, you've proven yourself to be trustworthy.

If Northwind made this thread, he could have told me Tony Hawk himself tripped him while skateboarding, and I would have believed him. It's amazing to me, but he's the type of personality that you feel you could trust your life to, having never met him face-to-face.

But Deep has done nothing but give us reasons to doubt him. He lies constantly, he makes things up, he posts in a completely moronic and counterproductive fashion, often restating things that have already been proven untrue. He does this for his own enjoyment, just to get a rise out of others. He has not earned my trust in any way shape or form, therefore he has to provide evidence if he wants me to believe anything he posts. I am not normally a skeptic, I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. But history tells us that Deep is lying, and his past is not one that can be overlooked. It's not through malice that I disbelieve, it is through simple common sense.

I long for the day when deep shuts down everyone in a thread like this, by giving proof after a couple days worth of flamming.

Here is your key flaw in having posted that. Our argument that he is lying is based on the boy who cried wolf scenario. Our arguments against his little story are based on the story, wherein nobody blatantly called him a liar on those elements, but rather pointed out how unlikely they were. If he posts proof, as I asked for, he only proves his unlikely story, not that he isn't a liar.

But harmless lies seem to be the most annoying kind. Post truncated.

A lie, regardless of motive, though is still a lie. We shouldn't let liars bother us.

Have you ever had a severe (and I mean severe) injury, and no one believes you? I have.
Nope. People know when I am serious.

Have you ever experianced what Deepsea has (supposedly) experianced, firsthand?
Yes.

Have you ever, ever, EVER walked a mile in Deepseas shoes?
No.

Now the question for you: Does any of that really matter?

This is exactly true, but also where the thread should have ended 100 posts back.

Ahhh. Now I see. You're doing it for the benefit of US. How thoughtful of you. How self-sacrificing. And here I thought it was just an opportunity to show how you can outwit a 13 year-old. My apologies and keep up the good work.
:rolleyes: overexaguration doesn't change anything here. In fact, I can turn your own argument around on you and ask why you are trying to flame me for something? Are you being self-sacrifing to help the community? :rolleyes:

You're calling me out on calling someone else out?

Here's the thing tho, back when I was more involved with our Buddy Deep in game, I heard stories like this daily. "My mom hates me", "my parents are divorced and i'm all lone", "i'm a cripple midget with $2 and a shiny rock". Do you know where it usually went from there? First to "will you be my friend?" and then to "can I have your password?"

His past clearly shows his "little lies" turn out to be larger problems. Now in the past I used to set him straight in game, and prevent the noobs from actually giving him more passwords. Would you have stopped me then on the same grounds?

When I have had a severe injury, I am incapable of moving myself, hence there is NO doubt.
Have you ever experianced what Deepsea has (supposedly) experianced, firsthand?
Yes, as explained earlier I have cracked my back before.
Have you ever, ever, EVER walked a mile in Deepseas shoes?
Have I ever been an lying attention seeking dumbass? Yes. And I grew out of it because people around me pointed out how useless it is to be one.

Now that you are (hopefully) thinking about those questions, I'd like to ask one more.... and I'd like ALL the arguers to answer this:

Do you agree that there is an incredibily small chance that Deepsea is telling the truth?
No. None at all. Deep has come here running to tell EVERY story of any ezciting thing that ever happened to him within the first few posts of being here. And yet he skipped saying anything about wiping out skate boarding and going to the hospital on the day it happened. Why? Because that by itself is not an interesting story. Sure, he may have actually fallen while attemting to skate. Sure he may have even gone to the hospital.
But there is no way he went, was released from the ER, then THE NEXT DAY had them recheck his X-rays and go "Oh daMn!@ Call this boy quick Tonto!" Been to the hospital quite a few times. Been X-rayed enough so I could glow in the dark. And never once did they recheck an x-ray.

Hope that answers your wonders.

Maybe a broken ankle, or a broken collar bone from falling wrong. But you could not crack your spine.

Unless you fell on your board, which you failed to mention... But i have fallen off 4-6 foot ledges straight onto my back... Only thing i got was a few bruises.

Yeah, I knew Deep way back when he showed up on army with his gold. Got to know him as a moron back then, too.
But people tend to come around, and I was thinking that after about a year, he wouldn't be joking about snapping his back.
And, in all fairness, I'm not 100% convinced either way.

Like I said, I'm not defending him, I'm just pointing out that there could be a grain (a very small grain) of truth to his story.
But, I think I'll unsubscribe to this thread at let it go on its merry way.

He may have hurt his back in some way, but I agree with everyone else, if you cracked your spine (even if it is the smallest crack), you wouldn't be able to go skateboarding in 2 weeks.

For them to over look it. The crack in my spine must be very small. I'll go to my real Dcotor today or tomarow and see what he suggests.

Of course it would, but his spine isn't cracked. If it was, he'd be in the hospital.

You've proven you're a liar now. If you cracked your spine, there wouldn't be a little piece of spine floating around and no medical person would say that. If it were a crack, it would still be connected, otherwise it wouldn't be called a crack. Game over.

First of all, you're a moron. Second of all, a "crack" does not mean anything broke off. A "chip" is when a piece of something becomes dislodged form the whole, and would result in a bone fragment floating in your spinal area, however that happens. :rolleyes:
