That is most of it the rest is currently being sponged off the floor.

I pulled the pin and was life oh ****. BLOOD!!!!!

Anyways enjoy learning from my pain.

Haha that's the way. It is a little freaky when it happens but remember to stay calm and react.

I just sat there and started cleaning myself up.

Haven't had the pleasure to hit one yet, but this is making me rethink pinning in a carpeted room. Maybe I should move to the kitchen...

Yeah there is a small stain on the carpet now.

Looks like my shirts after going ravenous on all you can eat sloppy joes.

Assuming nothing generally happens when you stick yourself; only when you pull out?

Either way, not looking forward to this.

Finally, closure. I have always worried when blood comes out but never has it been that much. Thanks and good job for the example a lot of people ask this Q.

Yeah it was not bleeding until the pin was pulled out and then the water works started.

Lol gerbil. What a mess! I haven't done that in 2 years of pinning. And hope never, I'm sure u handled it better than I would have. Is that ur quad u were pinning?

**AwhYeah** · 03-10-2013 08:46 PM

Yeah man, I'm gonna get some Tampax, just incase.

Yeah that was the quad. It was a new experience for me. Hopefully I wont be repeating it.

**bigt405** · 03-11-2013 04:16 PM

I pinned in my quad earlier today and I must say I am glad I did not see this post first lol. That looks like a mess......

**Slappy244** · 03-11-2013 04:51 PM

I guess that's the risk of pinning in an easy to reach spot. I've read a thread similar to this before where a bro hit a vessel in the quad and squirted blood all over the bathroom. Have you tried ventragluteal? It's a not that hard to reach, just do the dance to "I'm a little tea pot", and the hand on your hip is almost touching the spot.

**PintSizPopeye** · 03-11-2013 07:00 PM

@Slappy244

Really, I'm a little teapot?!? That's good. Do you have to sing the song for it to work? That's definitely going to be stuck in my head next time I pin. Thanks a lot, almost as bad as that lamb chops song.

I am not too sure I am pretty sure I nicked an artery or vein on the surface not deep in the muscle. I always give the blood a little tastes if any comes out, it did not taste like my gear at all, so I am pretty sure if I did loss any it wasnt much.

Now you can always be reminded of that day! I remember the 1st time it happened to me, blood squirted all the way across the room.
