You can have the pride of winning as your prize!

Screw the pride, I'd rather have money.

That's why I worked at McDonald's when I was younger :(

OP would still have his money if they had free health care!

He/She*

What I wanna know is how he still won...?

I guess you could say you're ripped

Single best comment on FML. Bravo sir.

Good pun, yes. Best comment in FML, not even close.

Ripped? That doesn't make sense...
But also NOT IN CANADA.

YDI. It's not hard to feel when to stop and when the body can't take it anymore.

He had to do it for his honor!

Well sometimes due to adrenaline, we don't always feel our muscle tearing. I had a similar experience when I was maxing out on squats and somehow tore my right lat (that's what they told me) without knowing it for a good while. Like #25 said.

It's like that FML where that guy got a paycheck for $840 and on the way to the bank he broke his suspension, and it would cost $800 to fix.

Can I have the link to that?

Just remember, it's better to have a torn tendon than a prolapsed anus in a weight lifting competion. It's still a win! Good luck OP!

Well that escalated quickly.

I remember when that happened. It was up at Penn State. Yikes.

Arm wrestling tournament? Did you guys then beat your chests while uttering primal screams?

What's wrong with arm wrestling? It's fun, I used to arm wrestle my brother and his friends all the time, and I won!

Because arm-wrestling is only for brutes.
Good work being close-minded and presumptuous; hopefully that stick doesn't get in the way of you sitting down, unless you like that kind of thing.

Let's not agitate them, Pleo. We don't know how good they are at ass-fencing.

From what i understand this sort of thing happens frequently at arm wrestling tournaments...yeah it sucks but surely you're not surprised!?

There's a tendon-cy that these things happen, don't worry OP I'm sure you'll but strung back together in no time and rip other people up.

Yikes! It could've been worse, You'll be fine though! :D Im curious, how much was the prize money? ^_^ Congrats!

"you'll be fine"?? Are you a doctor? I'm not either but but seems like OP will require surgery to repair said "torn" tendon. Perhaps out definitions of "fine" differ.

I actually am! ^_^ It's not the end of the world, simmer down.

Oh. Ok Dr. Nick. My bad. Smh...

Must've been a pretty tough competition for that to happen, huh? Congratulations anyway
