Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try [email protected] or [email protected]
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Realized I fucked up half way down a cliff jump into water that was way too high and I broke my back. Having that realization mid air was terrible. I’m very lucky to not be paralyzed from it
How did you hit the water? were you aiming for a belly flop, or dive? or were you just jumping in without thinking of the other? What injuries did you sustain if any?
Crushed my T-11 vertebrae from my legs bending over my head because I landed leaned back a bit but I also possibly hit the bottom I have no memory of the moment of actual impact. I was freaking out in the air which didn’t help at all. I was also not sober
Oh dang, so there's also a chance you hit the bottom of the water as well? Hope you're fully recovered now.
