my boss
my boss is pretty cool. he is a really really nice guy, and i think we're mostly on the same page when it comes to communication and personable stuff. He's about 40 and has two kids.
He's also a former pro BMX rider.
Since I've met him he's told me about a few stories. today he was talking about some of his injuries. I think he's broken pretty much everything.
hes had 13 concussions. one time he was unconcious for 6 hours. hes broken all his toes. both his hands, multiple times. he had a cadaver tendon used on his thumb when he damaged it, and when he damaged that again he went to canada to have an artificial tendon surgically installed. broken both collar bones, 2 and 3 times, dislocated his knees, broken both his legs, broken his arms, he's torn his urethra when he got caught between the frame of his bike and the tire (he only brought this up today because vasectomies were brought up during a meeting...thats the kind of place I work). he's been to the first two X-games. During practice at the 2nd x-games he passed out mid-air (hypoglycemic) and crashed to the ground, compacting his kidneys and liver and other internal organs, which took him around 6 months to heal, if i recall correctly. Thats basically when he retired from competing.
I broke my elbow once.
