Today, while running on the treadmill at the gym, I tried to wipe some sweat off my brow before it could make its way down into my eye. I ended up poking myself in the eye so hard that I yelped, stumbled and was thrown off the still-moving treadmill while trying to regain my balance. FML

I agree, your life sucks

You deserved it

This is why we attach the clip-things to our waistbands.

I have to ask just how did that happen? When people wipe their eyes it's usually with the flat of their fingers, not exactly poke capable. I'm guessing OP was at a really high speed, bouncing around, and hit the tip. Shake your head next time there buddy.

Well OP, did you regain your balance? I'm also curious to know if anyone saw.

It says at the gym. I'm pretty sure someone was close enough to see or at least see the aftermath of OP writhing on the ground in pain.

If anybody did see I expect it would have a domino effect of people tripping in a similar manner over the treadmills...

At least people were there to help and, hell, maybe you'll end up on America's Funniest Home Videos or something.

*Imagines a much worse scenario if OP was a girl with long nails, long hair & skimpy attire.* Count your blessings! :) But go for an eye check-up just in case your cornea was scratched...
