Thankfully none in 35yrs.
I have broken the skin in a fall (but that's par for the course)

In a single accident:

Compound fractures of Femur, Fibula, Tibia, Radius, Ulna, Humerus. Broken collarbone, severed subclavian artery and brachial plexus. Oh, and contracted gas gangrene. Spoilt my whole summer.

Mind you, the two months on Pethedine were a wow...
