I've got one at the moment, so I'm just wondering.
If you have, how'd you get it?
I flipped off the back of the couch in my basement, concrete floor. My head broke my fall.

Got one in a car accident. Whacked my head on the windshield and steering wheel.

oh geez...that sounds painful. I hope you get better soon! I don't think I've ever had a concussion. The worst thing that's happened to me is I fell down some stairs once and broke my ankle. I kind of dodged the bullet with that one because I had some scissors in my hand so I'm lucky I didn't shank myself!

Ahmygod. Hearing that literally gave me chills *extreme visual thinker*
But, no I have not had a concussion, thankgod.
A girl in my grade got one from hitting her head on the kid above her's locker.

My little sister once slammed the van door on her head. But she didn't get a concussion o__O we used to tease her saying she had a 'hard head' but she got really annoyed so we stopped.

I got a concussion on my teeth a couple of years ago - I don't know if that counts but I voted yes anyway. It was in gym and I got hit in the face with a plastic floor hockey stick. My left front tooth got completely knocked out and 7 teeth in the front were concussed.

I've never gotten one, but I almost got one in kindergarten. I banged my head on a door and had to get stitches... still got the scar too.

Before I say this, I just wanna point out that this is all true.
I was walking across the street (at a crosswalk so I had the right away...) and a silver F-150 (huge truck) hit me dead center. I flew a few feet and landed hard on the concrete, but I was still conscious and started running towards the sidewalk (I can't believe that I could move..). Once I was on the grass, I panicked and told someone to call an ambulance immediately. I was shaking and crying (the only thing I was thinking about was "what if.."). The guy that hit me ran out and dialed 911; he was shaking too.
At the hospital I found out I had a minor concussion and severe bruising down my left side. Luckily no broken bones or internal injuries. One of the scariest moments of my life, so far.
The irony of it all was that the guy that hit me was a Drill Sergeant that had yelled at me earlier that morning because I couldn't run fast enough, lol. He almost lost his rank and pay, but I decided to claim that it was an accident since I knew that he had a family to take care of. I'm too nice sometimes.

oh I kind of dodged the bullet with that one because I had some scissors in my hand so I'm lucky I didn't shank myself! Geeeeeeeeeez. O.o Yeah. I've always been the extra cautious worry-wart that warned the other kids not to do something possibly resulting in serious injury. The worse injury I can possibly think of is when my hairdresser burned my arm with a 300 degree Fahrenheit, metal hot comb. It was purely an accident...or so she says... >.> |

Yeah, I've had one. A few actually, but I have no memory of any of them; I've only heard about them from my mom. I fell out of a shopping cart and landed on my head... last time I was able to pretend I was riding on horseback standing up in the cart...  I've gotten whiplash too, but that's a long story... you guys probably wouldn't want to hear it. |
