In kindergarden, I started running around the class with a pair of scissors in my hand. Tripped and the blades went right between my right eyeball and my skull.

Somehow nothing important was damaged (just a lot of bleeding and a very frightened teacher). I still have 2 functioning eyes, and I never again ran holding sharp objects.

Did you become a teachable moment for your classmates?

honestly I don't remember what happened after the accident, but I the other kids probably learned a valuable lesson that day
