What is your closest ATV wipeout/crash/embarrassment?

first actual ride on my 300ex, i bent the after market handlebars (1inch lower) over my abdomen. luckily i put a bar pad on them before i took it out that day! went up a steep LONG hill and ran out of gas, quad stalled grabbed front break but didn't grab the clutch soon enough rolled back a bit then the gear caught and wheelie time.... my buddies said it was interesting watching me roll end over end. i put my body forward to counteract the wheelie, that saved me from snapping my neck. quad flipped only one time, i took the pounding in the ab's then the quad flipped back on its wheels, and i proceeded to get flipped over backwards again.
im glad i got off the seat, otherwise i would have been in the hospital. im good now, was a little soar for a week though.

back a good while ago i took a night ride over at the apple orchard that was right down the rode from me, i was with my buddy on a z400 neither of us had helmets lol, and as soon as i got across the road and started heading up a path on the orchards i punched it wide open and about 100ft up i hit a small telephone pole that was layin half way across the trail it knocked me unconsious immediately thats last thing i remembered friend said my bike tumbled and i flew off of it then my bike drove it self across the street in like 4th gear and traffic stopped and it just drove right between the cars and smacked a strip club sign and broke it then shut off,i woke up with blood all over my head and just asked my friend what happened and was all scrambled up i didnt know what happened lol, had stitches it my forehead and staples on top of my head, luckily i had a spare bike to swap axle,steering stem,bars,rims,tie rods,a-arm,front plastics,grab bar off of, the first mistake was going fast through a trail you havent ben on in a while, usually i go slow at first pass to check the trail out and stuff for logs and stuff like the one i hit, second mistake was the helmet. i hate hospitals and removed the stitches and staples myself, i got pictures of my head and stuff but i dont think people wanna see it lol.
