been in the hospital a few days...

[Unslap]

still feeling like crap so ill keep it short... in atlanta tried hopping a hotshot on the fly drunk and with about 16 beers and a half gallon of water on my back a few days ago. grabbed at the ladder then spun head over heels on level ballast crushing my spleen (almost had to be removed) and tearing several muscles in my abdomin and shoulders. i was getting cocky, never broke a bone in my life and always been good at catching dangerously fast trains, i forgot the real risk. dont be an idiot like me guys and girls

That sucks bro. Hope you have a fast recovery. Be careful though breaking a limp badly can result in pain forever in a way. Its good you're ok homie. Keep your head up.

dayum, thats some scary shit.

a man has got to know his limitations.

as i age i am more than once reminded i should stay familiar with mine.

Worst ive ever had is a bad case of road rash flying off a car...

I can imagine... shite... Hope you get some good pain meds. Thanks for sharing the warning... for us new to it we can't be reminded enough that when we start we need caution and help from someone experienced.

Get better. Peace.
