An Accident
In February of last year I had an accident on my bike that got pretty gnarly. While riding some street with my dad, I had my accident. I attempted bunny hopping over a parking lot planter, it was around 5 feet in length and I usually was able to hop over it no problem. This night though I wasn't as lucky, I miscalculated my timing when jumping over the planter and went over the handlebars and landed on my face. I blacked out and my dad tried to wake me up, he also called the ambulance. When I became conscious I couldn't remember who I was or why I was on the ground in pain. I barely remember my ambulance trip but I got to the hospital soon after.I got a cat scan and found out my orbital was possibly broken. your orbital is basically your cheekbone. I got cleaned up by the doctors and went home with a pair of crutches because I had sprained my leg as well. after around a month I was back on the bike and ready to go.
