Scars with historyYou've all got scars: they're nature's little reminders not to be so damned stupid next time. My favourite is the 1/4" round hole in the back of my right hand, created when I was 7 by my best friend putting a manure-covered gardening fork "away".
Tell us the stories behind your scars. With photos if possible.

1.5cm scar on top of left big toe.Walking barefoot and Hobbit-like along Rua Vidal Negreiros in Recife after the Noite dos Tambores Silenciosos (Night of the Silent Drums) 2003, I cut myself on a stray piece of glass. A friend noticed the blood from the cut when my foot surfaced from the sewery pool that was the street after a tropical rainstorm. A little later ensued much puss and pain. Not good, then.
Also small scar on the top of my head after having fallen of a wall (where my mother had sat me) on to a nail in a brick! Tetanus, here I came!
