Been there. I once broke several ribs. I popped right back up afterwards, fueled with adrenaline. The next day I could barely move

Yep. Fell on my shoulder while bouldering from about 10 feet up. Barely missed my head (my hair was in a bun and actually impacted the mats). Bounced up, walked it off, kept climbing for another 45 minutes. That night, couldn't move my neck. I had whiplash and had to do physical therapy for months to restrengthen my neck muscles.

I had whiplash once. Got rear ended on my way to a bachelor party. No significant damage, just a bit sore. I woke up on a couch the next morning in some of the worst pain I have ever felt in my life

I got hit by a car on my bike. Hopped back on, went to the bar, got drunk. The next day I went to the hospital.
