I landed on my head on my trampoline?!
Question:
I landed on my head on my trampoline?
i was attempting a front somersault and i didnt get the rotation quick enough. i was going to land on my head and by the time i realised - it was too late i couldn't put my hands out to stop me. i heard all the bones in my neck make a weird noise?? don't know what it was - what was it? i am fine now my neck recovered straight away but could there be something wrong with it? landing head first isn't the greatest thing to do is it?
Answers:
No. Landing head first was DEFINENTLY not the greatest thing...It's more dangerous then you think. There have been cases of death when such insidents occur. But the bones that you heard cracking were oviously not any bones breaking because if so, you wouldn't have recovered so fast and you wouldn't be able to move your neck right now. So I don't think its anything to worry about. If your neck is stiff you might notice that you hear a crackling sound if you move it side to side. That's normal to hear but don't get into a habit of doing it. I'm sure you're neck is fine, but just be careful if you decide to do any tricks again. If you have ANY pain consult a doctor right away before the situation gets any worse.
Good luck.
