RE: Holy crap that was close.
Dont feel bad Dairy King,
When I was 15 I decided to take some Thunderhead 125's off my arrows and throw some field points on for practice. I left a broadhead on top of my desk by my school stuff. I woke up late and was rushing around in my room to get dressed so I would not miss the bus. I am running around in my boxers on and nothing else and grab the broadhead off my desk to go put in my bow case. I was in such a hurry that I never seen my backpack on the floor. I tripped over my backpack with the Thunderhead in my hand and dropped the broadhead on the floor. As I stumbled in mid air my right foot came right down on the broadhead. I only thing I felt was pressure in my foot. I sit on the floor and lift up my foot and one blade was all the way imbedded in the ball of my foot. The other two blades were sticking out perfectly. When I pulled out the broadhead it looked like a crime scene in my room. Make a long story shorter, I ended up missing the bus and that day of school. I got 6 stitches and knew that this broadhead had good penetration. I learned never to leave broadheads laying around as paper waits. Thanks for listening and happy hunting

Sooo, the last 2 posts of yours on here you
1) Shot one of your buddies bows and it jumped out of your hands and bounced off the floor.
and
2) You were playing with broadheads and you cut your finger.
I either wouldn't do these things or wouldn't tell anyone if I did.

1. If you don't want to drop it, hold it
2. Don't play with sharp objects
Your the kind of guy that touched the stove after your mother told you it was hot, right?

Ahh crap happens, if you haven't cut yourself with something sharp for a stupid reason ya jsut aren't trying hard enough 
Never have done it with a broadhead but have done it with a boning knife when I worked at a meat locker. That sucker hurt bad but the reward was that when I went to get it stitched up the person said, wow, that was a sharp knife. What a nice compliment, I had just been sharepening it right before I cut myself, Chalked it up to a job well done...
In all seriousness, the more you are around sharp objects the more likely you are to cut yourself. It is just a matter of exposure, now, cutting paper for fun with a broadhead is probably one of the stranger ones I have heard it isn't as bad as the guy who did it shaving hair off his arm to test the blades sharpness. They were not very sharp but left one nasty scar when they caught and dug.

Yeah, Motown, IL Rancher just made that up. 
I know him, I chat with him often, actually, he's not one to make stuff up like that.
Yeah, well, Anthony, atleast I didn't get my butt kicked by a little ole cow.[8D]How's the shoulders?
