Has anyone here ever been knocked out?
Whether through a fight, an accident of some sort, or something else?
Personally, I have never been knocked out and I've never even been seriously punched in the face.
I've hit my head decently hard on asphalt before as a young kid but I took it and kept moving.
What say you?

Re: Has anyone here ever been knocked out?
I've taken some head blows in striking arts and basketball, but the only time I was ever legit KOed was in baseball as a tween.
My dumbass teammate was whipping his bat around like he was a Jedi Knight and whipped it (accidentally) against my head Loony Tunes style while I was standing sort of sideways to him.
When I woke up my head was shockingly clear, almost like the KO cleared all the rust and cobwebs out (reset to factory settings?). Thankfully no long-term damage.

Re: Has anyone here ever been knocked out?
Once. I was a senior in high school and it happened during a soccer game. One of my teammates sent a line drive cross in front of the net and I went to head it in the goal. I didn't think anyone was close to me, but a defender somehow showed up and cut in front of me. Instead of connecting with the ball I struck him in the head instead. I was knocked out briefly and had a goose egg on my forehead. I honestly felt ok, but they wouldn't let me play the rest of the game and made me go to the hospital to get checked out. I was fine.

Shocked you had no concussion symptoms afterwards, especially when it was a bat and not a fist.

Soccer is apparently one of the bigger sports for CTE because of heading the ball and other types of collisions while you're swinging your head around.

Re: Has anyone here ever been knocked out?
Twice. Once in high school when I got thrown out of the back of a friends truck when he was driving on sand dunes and once in college playing soccer. I was defending a corner kick and ended up diving into the goalpost to try to save a goal. Ball went in and I got a concussion and stitches

Re: Has anyone here ever been knocked out?
It's interesting how many injuries seem to happen in "softer" sports like baseball or soccer.
Larry Bird had his finger permanently bent backwards by a softball play (that he says he never recovered from) and also a concussion.
In one of his biographies he talked about how he went to Celtics doctor for a physical exam in the pre-draft workout, and the doctor asked him to "show him the[hurt] finger", and Bird held up the finger on his opposite (i.e.-good/healthy) hand and got a medical pass (how the hell that worked I don't know lol).

Re: Has anyone here ever been knocked out?
Once.
Got called up to Varsity in 10th grade for the playoffs.
We did a lineman drill where you lay on your back with your helmet on the line, 10 yards apart.
When the whistle blew, you jump up and go against the other guy full bore.
I got our all-league guard. A fire hydrant against my scrawny ass.
I woke up on my back, and only saw in shades of red for about 10 minutes.
Of course, I didn’t tell anybody. I’m sure I was concussed. No lasting effects thankfully.

I have seen that drill before and it makes sense that people get their bells rung doing it.

Re: Has anyone here ever been knocked out?
Once. At my first condo I had street parking and had to run to get something out of my car and realized I forgot my keys. My regular doors to my unit were unlocked but the main door to the building had an automatic lock so I couldn’t get back in. There were only 4 units and I buzzed each one to get me in but no one was home so I went to hop the 8 foot fence in the back, as I was going over my pant leg got hooked on the fence and I fell and hit my head on concrete and was knocked out briefly. Woke up with a massive lump and felt tired and went to my unit and fell right asleep which in hindsight was a terrible idea cause if i had some sort of real damage I’d probably would have dropped dead. Woke up like 20 minutes later with a headache and went to get checked out. Said everything looked fine but to make sure I didn’t sleep alone for a few days so my now wife stayed over the week. Lump went completely away after a day and didn’t have any after effects.
