A few black eyes, couple cuts

Only had one real bad thing happen to me, which was getting stomped in a pit, three broken ribs & two bones in my wrist broken.

This one time... well no..


errr this other time!! hrm.. no


I've never been hurt in a pit, because I dont go in them. I'm not one to brag about how hurt I just got by people swinging their arms for no reason at me. Mosh pits are retarded.

then why even post in this thread if u think they are retarted?

Eh, the idea of a mosh pit has been distorted over the years; it was never intended to harm anyone originally.


I've been through my share and never had any issues with personal injuries. I've certainly had a few possessions of mine broken, but that was my own fault.

The shows Ive gone to, if someone gets tripped up or something and falls, the people around him/her stop and help them up, or if people are throwing fists (with intent to injure), someone else will throw them out of the pit.

because I felt the need to share my opinion. +1

While a legend of the pits when they used to really be pits, the only time I was injured was at a concert for the band called "ALL".


A skin did a stage dive while wearing combat boots, somehow one of his boots contacted w/the top of my head, tearing a good sized rip in it, making the blood flow instantly all over the place.


Everyone backed away, the guy even came up and apologized, not that that really mattered to me, but the bad thing was is that our car was double parked. Meaning, we had to wait for the show to be over before going to the hospital where they gave me 5 staples after a really good scrub down with iodine. The iodine scrub was the worst part as you can imagine.


It wasn't fun at the time, but looking back, it's always a fun story to tell.

dude that must of hurt

I got a steel toed boot in the face from a crowd surfing punk. Wasn't too bad, but my nose and lips were pretty gory.
