I think I sprained my ankle once. But I don't remember if it was from paintball or school. (It was a long time ago.) I'm going to go with scratches on my arms from diving into bunkers.

Tore cartilage in my ribcage but it wasn't completely from paintball. I think paintballing just kinda finished it off.

i think most people stretch before they go play... so i doubt many people have pulled muscles

personally the worst thing iv done is gotten turf burn on my chin lol superman dive and hit my chin on the ground.. mask came up a lil and well it jus kinda happened from there. looked like a loser for a few days at school but w/e it was funny

i was playing some woodsball with my old gun and i climbed in a tree ~165 feet up and tried to paracute into an opening and my parachute didnt open, but on the way down i got shot all over about 200 times, including about 7 in the nuts. when i landed i compression fractured 4 of my spinal disks, broke my left arm in 6 places, whiplashed my neck, and rolled and broke left ankle while bone spurring my right heel and breaking 3 of my toes on the right foot. i also suffered 4 bruised ribs. after i landed and was screaming for an ambulance, i got bunkered by 12 A-5s with r/t from less than 6 feet away, causing severe bruising and welting and bleeding to all areas of my body, in particular my gonads, neck, and eyes since my goggles fell off my head during the jump.

hit in the funny bone from real close. messed up my nerves for a good 10 minutes. i dropped my gun instantly and my hand went bezerk for a little while.

i got one straight in the top of the head from 5 feet. that made me all cold down the spine and i was shocked so i stood there for a good moment.

and *** shots always hurt like hell

Well, not so much while playing, but as a result of it. Playing the last tournement, I got shot in the sack, but that wasn't what was the worst injury, it was after I got home, and my girlfriend started hitting the **** out of me cause she thought it was an STD and that she was going to get it.

i was shot in the eye due to my stupidity
i was fixing my teamates ego at a tourney and took the air and paint out and think it was fine i took the bolt out and tapped the trigger toturn it off and the ball came out of the back of the gun and hit me in the eye

this was my own fault for not wearing goggles even though i thought there was no air now i am out for the rest of the season due to a blood problem in my eye

GOGGLES ON GUYS its not just a saying

My most serious injury while playing paintball......my pride
but about the eye thing....yea, nasty i saw a dude get shot in the eye, it just pops like a water balloon.

[EDIT] haha, and a long time ago some one didnt put in their bolt pin for their 'cocker and when he shot it, the bolt came flying out the back and railed him in the face.

goggles on
