Today, I was helping my grandmother move a TV into her room upstairs. While carrying the TV, I slipped on a stair, fell over and broke the banister. I broke my leg and smashed the TV as well. FML

Hey everyone, OP here. Thanks for all the support, doc says I'll be able to walk again in a few weeks. I was wearing socks, and my grandma's house has wooden stairs. My grandmother and I are very close, and she completely understood; she wasn't upset. And now, as for the TV. I'd say it WAS about 40 inches and rather new, so it wasn't too heavy. But I'll by buying another one. I'll also be fixing the banister. It was just a fluke accident, no hard feelings. And yes, my grandmother cared about my leg. Bye guys!

I hear the word "Grandmother" and I'm thinking this TV probably weighed like 200 lbs at least.

Well, at least you didn't take your grandmother down with you. Then you'd both be laid out, and with no TV to watch.

In context of OPs comment, I'd almost say you deserve it for moving things like a TV in socks on wooden stairs. Seriously, that's like asking for death

I agree. It obviously was a poor decision on my part.

It's nice you're going to replace her tv and fix her bannister. Next time though, don't wear socks on wooden stairs!
