After a car accident I had a fractured fibula and didn't know it until 
several hours later when it swelled up to about the size of a basketball.  
In fact, the accident happened within half a block of where I lived, so I 
got out of the car and *jogged* back to my house to get a camera - on the 
fractured leg.  Don't underestimate the amazing power of being in shock.  Of 
course, I started jogging inthe wrong direction before I realized I didn't 
recognize where I was and had to go back, and the person who hit me was 
stoned out of his mind, and behaving like it, so you can imagine how absurd 
the two of us looked; it would have been comical if not for the injuries and 
damage.

I keep a disposable camera in my car, now.
