    Slipped on the sidewalk in the rain and somehow broke an arm (clean broke it). Needed surgery and 2-night hospital stay. This after climbing multiple mountains without a scratch.

      That sucks.

      Makes me ponder though:

      Humans are more or less designed for nature like mountains/dirt trails. I think sidewalks/asphalt while great designs for society and big cities are actually less ideal for the individual human.

      Since living in the city I have learned to respect wet manhole covers.
