I broke my hip bone a month ago and have to be robocop for the rest of my life... Can't imagine the pain this person felt.

I still don't understand.
It sounds like you're saying we should not be concerned with putting our feet up on the dash because we could fall off a ladder.
Don't put your feet up on the dashboard because an unlikely crash could shatter your hips.
Don't step on the top of a step ladder because a less unlikely fall could break your spine.
Why are we comparing them like it's incompatible to practice basic safety for both? Absolutely, there are many other more common dangers in the world you should guard yourself against. But not putting yourself in a position to severely worsen your injuries in the event of a car collision is one of them!
Oh I do agree that practicing basic safety is essential. Only in this case the horrible effect after the crash takes center stage over the likelihood of it happening.
This is a very common psychological effect that we are more scared the more horrendous something is, instead of how likely it is to happen.
I wonder if there even statistics on the amount of crashes involving people with their feet on the dash. But in this thread it's talked about it putting ones get in the dash is as reckless behavior, which is not really. There barely more risk of an accident putting your feet there.
There are statistics on where most accidents happen and it's most often around the house.

Just dab it with some bacitracin, take some ibuprofen, and get some sleep. You'll be fiiiiiine.
Lol its like you were in the ER with me. After getting a $5 sling for $130 and 50¢ Tylenol for $50 they sent me home and referred me to a doctor on the far side of town who wasn't in my network. Its almost been a month since I broke my collarbone, only abt a month of sling time left! And $617 dollars in med debt later

If this is someone born male, they hip checked themselves in the nuts. Ow ow ow!
White indicates density and that white bit above the ball of their femur is let's say plausibly a whangdoodle.

It can literally Kill you! Even a lower speed accident. I took care of a patient who's leg was shattered and it cut her femoral artery into a couple pieces.
DEAD! Just by hanging her bare feet outside the front passenger window across the edge of the dashboard. Air bag deployed. The END.

If you look at their sacrum you can see their soul crying (it kinda looks like a face in agony)

Ohhhhh jeez... I didn't even consider that

The hip bones attached to the..... Oh, sorry about that....
Looks like the taint bone...

exactly this "florida man hit himself in the head with a hammer, sued the hammer company and won a bazillion dollars" stuff
Frivolous lawsuits are mostly a fake thing McDonald's convinced the public of so they wouldn't have to pay medical bill for someone after serving coffee that was way too hot. The reason for most big payouts for injuries is because the medical system is broken.

Right? People kinda willfully forget anywhere that isn't a major metropolutan area has a possibility of being the redneck type of rural, and that's not even exclusive to the USA.

You're conflating the severity of the consequences to the likelihood of it happening.
The likelihood of getting in a crash is not higher if your feet are on the dash. The likelihood of your injuries being worse, way worse, is. That's the point of plenty of plenty of precautions.
Do you think seatbelts aren't necessary because they don't make you less likely to crash?

Those who know
-
That’s just dislocated.
-
Better than having your kneecaps in your teeth.
Don't fucking kick your legs up in a car what the fuck you're in a high speed vehicle that can crash at any moment resting legs near an air bag????
well I rest on the door handle and my foot over the air bag so my knee will miss my teeth

seems like he broke more than just the hips. 1 dislocated leg that is also broken, and the other one shattered.
