Well, the worst...I was walking past my bed, scary right?, and the exposed part of the metal frame caught my leg and as I walked it started peeling skin & blood off of my leg like a potato peeler. I still have that scar to this day and I'll never forget it. Hurt like hell. Cried like a baby. I was 12.

Runner up would be when I was a kid, my house had spikes in it. Like, deadass spikes along the walls. I think my parents were trying to put down some carpet. I was running inside the house, tripped and the palms of my hands plunged into the spikes. Hands were gushing blood and that's all I remembered from that. Pretty sure I passed out. My hands looked cool while they healed though.

That reminds me of another old scar on my right index finger. I was trying to close the window, back in the 80's. It was a simple system, metal bar with holes in it attached to the window on one side (opening outwards) and a pin in the windowsill to put the bar on. The bottom of the bar was hollow with the metal curved inwards leaving a V shape at the end. That V shape caught the inside of my finger when a big wind gust blew the window open and scooped a chunk of flesh out of my finger. It was quite deep, hurt like hell and couldn't be stitched since the flesh was simply gone. The scar is still there 40 years later.
