This is a question Scars with history

You've all got scars: they're nature's little reminders not to be so damned stupid next time. My favourite is the 1/4" round hole in the back of my right hand, created when I was 7 by my best friend putting a manure-covered gardening fork "away".

Tell us the stories behind your scars. With photos if possible.

This is a QotW answer I have a wonderful scar accross my chin,
which with some stubble makes me look like a BIG MAN

I gained it at a Butlins holiday camp.. there was a slide-thing, and me, being a foolish boy of ~10, decided to climb the flat, wet, slippery slope

I got quite far, but then slipped, landed on my chin (this wasn't plastic, but "tiles") and slid down

i swam around thinking "ow :(" for a bit - when people started screaming... i was leaving a nice trail of blood behind me

--

to save face (bear in mind i was tiny!) i told them i must have cut it on some glass; this (unintentionally!) resulted in them closing the pool for the week, and giving us a free holiday! (at butlins :().

i also have scar accross the top of BOTH my hands - from rescuing something from the oven, i managed to whack them against the metal-thing at the top

when i join my hands together, i have one big scar! \o/
