Whats scary is the amount of these stories I have...
When I was 8 my parents were doing some work at a church, so my brother and I were playing in a little slightly wooded area between the church and the parsonage when we found one of the old style stone barbecues. Muahaha, perfect ship to play pirates on! Unbeknownest to us, they had been trying to take it down and had spent a couple hours earlier out there beating on it with sledgehammers. I climbed all the way to the top, and the concrete slab rocked underneath me, so I jumped off, and landed on my hands and knees. Unfortunately the top followed me off and landed on my back. It wieghed over 400 pounds. I passed out and my brother ran for help. The first person to get out there was my mom, who picked it up and tossed it about 15 feet. I lucked out, only wound up in the hospital for about 9 days, no broken bones, just a lot of compressed organs, and some nasty cuts on the back of my head.
