Metal in your body due to skydiving.

This was gonna be a variation of the "Seven/Nine Cell Posse" threads, but I got carried away. (In more ways than one.)

I got two Ti fem rods and screws to hold them still. Plus a dental bridge.

If you don't believe me, ask me.

You don't have a "not anymore" option.

Fall in dove.

[turtlespeed 220]

or a "nope, not yet" option...

But I do have a plastic bone in my left hand from a mortorcycle accident.

Not skydiving though...Didn't know if it counted.

I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama

Or an "I'm so old my prosthetics are bronze"

I'm a "None so far" actually, but there is no option for that on the poll

ummm....you left out the option for none.

Broke my tib/fib on June 15. Got a brand shiny new titanium rod in the tib. Healing very well, but no jumping until next season .

No metal, but I do have a permanant blue line on my nose that the doctor called a "traumatic tattoo" and it's from a skydiving accident. Can I still be in your club?

Nothin', unless you want to count having a few screws loose...

Actually I still have screws in my ankle but I had the rod removed from my femur a couple years ago. I couldn't stand the constant pain in the winter from the cold. It's much better now.

Don't try to floss with pull-up cord either, i have a piece lodged in between my teeth.


Does that count ?

At least you know where you stand even if it is in a pile of shit.

Some one put a beer bottle top on my beach chair at the dropzone once, I sat on it wearing nothing but shorts. I now have a nice little scar from the ridges. That's the only metal I have from skydiving.

Got screws & a plate in my ankle - still sitting around watching the summer slip by w/no jumping - WAAAAAH!

It's no fun being broken....

I'm in the metal leg club! Would rather not be, but actually it was a damn good thing I broke my leg when I did!

I just wish that the doc would have done a bit better of a job than leaving me an inch taller on one leg! Oh well, I guess for the rest of my life I can claim to be an inch taller than I am - and when they want proof - I'll just put more weight on the one leg!!
