Yes. I broke my foot when I was about 5, cracked the growth plate too and since it wasn't treated properly whenever I hit a growth spurt it ached like hell. I also broke my arm when I was about 9.

I broke my left arm really badly in 4th grade. I panicked since my wrist was paralyzed and something kept sticking out under my skin when I tried to move it. The x-rays said my arm was pretty bad.

Left leg.
Both broken at the same time exactly in the middle - leg below that point was completely loose and it was holding only on the muscle tissue.
Fell from a tree(don't ask what I was doing there).
Had to have surgery twice to place, and later remove a special piece of some metal to make sure they are straight while they link together.
3 months of cruthes and one year of rehab, but everything is fine now, only some accasional reumatism.
Only got bit fatter since then :(

Except that I never had anything broken.

I think someone might crack something of yours for "peoples".

I broke my arm once and sprained my ankle. I also chipped a tooth, and it hurts till today, whenever weather changes from cold to hot and hot to cold.

A hairline fracture in my foot which was so insignificant that I could walk on it.

In fact, once they put it in a cast, that's precisely what I did for six weeks...

Yeah, yeah, "Except that"... that's a pretty damn major thing to try to overlook.

Nope. I have chipped one of my front teeth just a little bit (it's only visible if you look really close), but that's about it of the "cracking" damage my body has suffered.

No. I'm what's known in the medical community as 'fucking invulnerable'

I have fallen 12 feet off a rope swing and landed on my face, walking away with only a twisted muscle in my neck

I broke my wrist, and absolutely destroyed my elbow (it bent all the way backwards and broke more times than we could count).

Yes I've broken my elbow after having an argument with the pavement. Safe to say: I lost. It was only fractured though, but that still counts as broken. I biked home with it, and didn't properly complete my rehabilitation (which was required, even though it was just cracked, according to my doctor), which means that I can still feel it sometimes with bad weather or something, even though it's nearly 3 years ago now.
