I haven't hurt anyone, but my 3 (then... now 4) year old daughter has -- me.

The kids woke up Easter morning to find that the Easter Bunny didn't bring much chocolate, but Hii did bring a Wii.

We were playing bowling and it was my daughter's turn. Now we all know that the proper form is as follows:

1. Press the B button
2. Raise the Wiimote to a vertical position
3. Swing the Wiimote backwards behind you while taking a step to two forwards like in real bowling
4. Swing the Wiimote forwards and release the B button when you want to release the ball.

This is all fine and dandy. Remember that little 3 year old? Remember how uncoordinated some can be? Well this is her routine when bowling:

1. Stand at least 8 feet away from the TV (we put a tea towel where she's supposed to start from)
2. Press the B button
3. Raise the Wiimote to a vertical position
4. Swing the Wiimote backwards behind you (she doesn't take any steps forward)
5. Swing the Wiimote (and herself) forwards with MUCH force and release the B button (imagine holding one of those hammer throw hammers from track and field and imagine yourself bowling with that as the Wiimote)

Sounds a bit funny... yes?? Well, imagine my 3 year old (very short & petite 3'2" & 32lbs) bowling (at stage 5 where she's catapulting herself across the room -- remember the teatowel at 8ft from the tv?). Now imagine me (Dad - 6'6" & 230lbs) talking with my wife and not really paying attention to what my 3 year old is doing while getting off the couch and getting a Wiimote square in the crotch (sounds better with another word).

I drop to the floor grabbing my manhood in agony and my daughter stands over me and says: "Daddy, I'm trying to bowl here!" Meanwhile, my wife has almost pee'd herself she's laughing so hard.

MORAL OF THE STORY: When your 3year old is bowling, stay out of the line of fire.

My Ex-Wife has it was me in the testicular region. Wasn't good times thats for sure. I feel for you Flacon I really do.

[Minako]

Nope. Haven't even come close. When I first started playing wii, I wondered "How the heck can you break anything with this?"

And then I saw how most other people play. I was like "Wowwie". Srsly.

I'm not saying you shouldn't get hyped up while playing, but man, such force is not necessary....

[TheFirstDragon]

luckily i know noone who has hurt themselves, or anyone else, my grandmother let go of the remote the first bowling match we played, luckily I make all "new" people to the wii use the strap

[oxymoron]

I almost broke my hand swinging the bat in Wii Sports.

[mooglegamer]

i smashed my old tv lol lucky i was gettin a new one anyway!

[DrWii]

I have hit my glass table with my knuckles before.

If you want to check out some injuries there's a whole site on it. All I can say is OUCH!
