Ever banged your pole into your face while landing?

fell off backwards coming off a down rail and the side of my head landed on my pole and snapped it. not the best feeling in the world...
 
two seasons ago I was learning 7s and I bailed out on my first try, and took the pole right to the forehead. somehow it split the gap between my goggles and helmet. my buddy filmed it but apparently it's been hidden by youtube and i can't find it...
 
I was bombing a snowboard cross thing at bromley and i tried to be all steezey and what not and accidentally planted my pole in front of my stomach. It came up, nailed me right in the stomach, and i went flying...not fun
 
i pretend to row with my poles all the time. and do tons of other stuff that puts me at risk for hitting myself in the face. sadly, i think today was my last ski day. so i'm no longer at risk.
 
Had one a few years ago when I was just starting to try 3's. Landed and planted straight between my legs causing massive testicular and stomach pain.

Sat there in pain for like 15 minutes.

Friends wouldn't stop laughing.
 
almost broke a pair of crowbars a couple years ago doing this... i have been cutting my poles down ever since
 
One day i was rockin my dads neon poles from the 70's which were huge and i did a 2 off a rail and a threw my body so hard my pole hit me in the helmet and gave me a cuncussion

 
haha its happened to me twice once i was going through 2 trees and it hit me in the chest and I flew atleast 3 feet it sucked. The other time I almost swallowed my pole
 
Yesterday while skiing a glade one of my edges caught, right after I pole planted. Pole straight into throat. Hurt like shit, but luckily I wasnt going too fast. I said to myself "holy shit, that could have eneded a lot worse".
 
One time I was getting on the lift, and there was a big concrete pole. I just sat down on the chair, and idk why put I stuck my pole out to touch the concrete thing, and I misjudged how far away it was, but it was only like 2 feet away, tip of my pole hit it, my hand came flying back and I punched myself in the chin. It was swollen and my mouth was bleeding.
