I sneezed the other week whilst cutting a hedge, my front tooth denture which was a bit loose shot out of my mouth never to be seen again. £295+ for a new one, ouch. That hurts more than the original over the bars moment that caused the damage 30 years ago.

one sneeze resulted in a back spasm, or inflammation of a prolapsed disk, which then had about £1000 worth of Chiropractor works. (until I realised the chiropractor was clearly at it and I went somewhere else.)

Reversing the campervan up the drive, sneezed and managed to simultaneously slip off the clutch and stamp on the accelerator - van flies backwards and stops itself with the tailgate of Mrs MikeG's car.
Physical damage repaired with a £40 tailgate from the breakers, it will be brought up regularly for the rest of my life.

Not a sneeze but one of those explosive s****s that in my case managed to shoot out a rather long greenish length of snot that was immediately sniffed back up, hoping no one saw it. The girl I was sure I was in with that evening did see it and that was that.

Costly...

I wish her luck on her quest to find a mucus-free partner.

Any time anybody mentions Katusha on the TdF coverage, my wife says "Bless you!".This may well cost her dearly.

Heh

Or at least one who doesn't yo-yo the stuff in and out of one's nostril.

Not expensive (apart from brain cells) but i knocked myself out once sneezing and hitting my head on a table when working as a photographic printer in a darkroom, woke up on the floor 😆

@twiglet_monster you are not the only one. ITV4 played out with that tune on the day he won the stage.

Genius work by the coverage team.

My wife says Kendrick? Every time someone mentions Armand Demare. I'm dissapointed he's out. It was becoming a 'thing'.

My nephew keeps saying Malcolm Oliver is one of his favourite riders...

My right shoulder is unstable following a dislocation a few years ago. I've sneezed a few times and it's subluxed so I now make sure to use the left arm for covering.
