IMPORTANT MEDICAL RESEARCH!
I have recently discovered that if someone were to fall sideways and use their shoulder, and only their shoulder, to break said fall, they will also break their collarbone.

Despite the fact that this research has already taken place, I feel that the results are of such import that I shall be applying for a grant.

Said grant may or may not be used to recover the cost of the stupid amount of alcohol I the subject consumed beforehand. Also, if attempting to replicate said experiment, remember that the subject waited for three days before he attended hospital to obtain the results of the experiment, prefering to self medicate with more alcohol.

amateur.
i waited a month before getting my smashed collarbone diagnosed. and it was bad enough to need a plate in it for 4 months.

Fair doos
But, to be fair, I only went to the hospital when I did to get a mate to shut up about me going to hospital.

Not proven.
I have fallen onto my shoulder a few times and not sustained any broken bones -- usually the left, I think, but pretty sure I've landed on both.
