Got hit head-on by a car going ~40mph while riding my bike when I was 7.
Bike went under the car, I went over it. My skull destroyed the windshield, I flew about 20 feet before landing and sliding for ~45 feet on the asphalt.

Had to be evac'd to the hospital via helicopter, they thought my spine was broken.
Turns out I didn't break anything, no concussions or anything.
I only fractured my right leg and had a lot of gravel embedded under the skin all up and down my legs and in my ass. That was the worst part.. them picking out road debris from under my skin for hours and hours with tweezers. Funny thing is, I never went unconscious.. I still remember the whole thing, getting hit.. spinning through the air.. etc.

Doctors said I was pretty damn lucky, I should have died but instead came out with only a fractured leg and some bruises.
That was my closest brush with death that I can recall anyway.

I've never broken a bone that I know of, but I did fracture my skull once.

I fell about 4 feet head first onto some pavement and started puking all over
