I found some great ones but I need time you could also mail me your experience with your yo's or your accident.

I got this one from some guy and I find it very funny and the first time I read it I laugh my lungs out but again I really pity him. Anyway enjoy this.

Most Painful Injury with a Cold Fusion GT: Ahhh, yes... probably my biggest yo-yo injury comes from this bastard. I was practicing my sideways routines, and was going to start off with a Man on the Flying Trapeze to a Double or Nothing but there was a kink in the string because my yo-yo did not wind properly from my last attempt. Since I wanted to get the best sleep (spin) possible, I threw the Cold Fusion GT as hard as humanly possible. As the yo-yo was about to go around my left finger (I'm right handed), the yo-yo retracted due to the kink-knot in the string. The
yo-yo kept traveling around my left finger, but the retraction made the yo-yo retract and hit me directly in the eye-area instead of looping outward before landing on the string. 

  So, imagine if you will.... You throw a solid, heavy-duty, brass the yo-yo as hard you possibly can, and you get hit in the eye with it. This wouldn't be so bad...except the yo-yo is super solid and heavy. I guess it could be like being hit in the eye with a hardball traveling about as hard as you can
throw it. Except it's a brass hardball.

  Anyway, it hurt like hell, and since I had glasses on it left this indented mark around my eye. My eye was swollen and the outline of my eye (from my glasses) was bleeding. I thought to myself, "Ahh S#!+, I scratched my brand new yo-yo!" But my yo-yo was perfect; not a scratch, on it. Of course, I then began to think "Oh man, I'm going to look so stupid at school tomorrow!" I mean, what could I tell people? "Oh yeah I gave myself a black eye with my mad yo-yo skills." Fortunately, with a little ice, the swelling went down and by the next day nobody could not tell anything wrong had happened - except for little scab marks where my eye was cut -- but since that was covered up by
my glasses, nobody noticed a thing. :)

Webmaster: This remind me of my little cold fusion (ace) except I didn't have such a bad injury. I only hid my head when I was trying do reach for the moon. 

ACE (small but like cili padi)

   I borrowed one of my friends ACE to try some tricks, the SP3 is very effective coz it is very new. I cant even do a spinner that can sleep for 2 sec...so I try some Looping stuff.... it is ok then I try "Reach for the Moon" it reach up high .. then it flip back n went straight to my mouth..and "Kaboom" I cant feel my teeth for a moment n then my lips bleeds like a fountain. (beware of ACE)

Webmaster: Almost everybody I know who has a Ace or played with one has a accident with it. Funny Why?

The first time I learn to yo-yo

  I remember very well the first time I ever yo. I learn the gravity pull, after knocking the yo on the floor two times. Then I learn the forward pass. After that I saw my friend doing the loop and find it very cool at that time.

  So I grab the yo and started to loop. Obviously the first few times didn't work. Then I sort of master it. Then I went to tuition and wanted to show my friends what I learn, as I was looping and looping in front and teacher the yoyo hit the chair and flew directly into my forehead and man did it hurt, like hell.

  After five minutes my forehead began swelling and I as so worried, "what am I going to tell my mother" I said to myself. Then when I went home got some scolding from my mother of course, and my friend who lend me the yo laugh till he had tummy ache.

  That was when I decided to go get my own yo. So to all the beginners out there it doesn't matter if you hurt yourself with a yoyo cause you learn from accidents.

Webmaster: A....no comments.

The seasick story.

  One day after seeing the seasick video on my computer I took my yoyo and tried to do the trick.

  I got the first few steps then the part where it goes up and down, the yo went up and down and then straight to my right eye. I was so stupid because I saw the thing flying towards me but I kept still and did not move.

  After hitting my eye I couldn't open it, and worst of all I could not even balance myself feeling like I was in some sort of ship. Now that is what you call seasick.

Webmaster: so if you were to that trick in a competition make sure its the last trick you do.
