Once I hurt my neck playing DDR.... I don't know how, but I did.

I often suffer arm pains from overuse of the bar.... sersiously, putting all your weight on your arms can hurt if you play long enough.

Once, my brother was fooling around with the hoop-shooting game next to the ddr machine. I caught a stray basket ball to the face while playing. It was quite distracting.

Once I was playing CSFiL Speed Mix and I tripped and fell off the stage.

Those are the most I've ever hurt playing DDR.

Nothing more than twisting my ankle slightly every now and then. Had a friend that had to get stitches because someone didn't look where they were going when he was freestyling. My friend got 3 or 4 stitches on the side of his knee. The other person didn't have anything wrong with them. Oh well, it happens I guess.

I dare say it would be quite distracting, lol.

The worst injury I've had is when the shoes that I was wearing to play started chafing just above my ankle...it doesn't sound like much, but it's really quite painful. Picture carpet burn on your foot...yeah. Just like that.

Umm..I walked on my tiptoes when I was little, and I tend to do that when playing...and after doing that for a good bunch of seven footers, it really really hurts. My feet hate me so.

I caught herpes from DDR.

Although, to be fair, I didn't use protection.

I get the same thing, except on the top of my right foot. It also stays for a while too. It doesn't hurt, but I can't imagine it can be good. Oh well. As long as I can play...

That happened when I worked at mc donnalds.... I now get swollen ankles. Beweare.

The only DDR injury I can think of is that I tried to knee plant on a light song at the end.... missed the pad... and came down on a screw frown.gif.

When I first started playing DDR over at a friend's house, I struggled to get things right for three whole hours. Now before that I never really excersized much, and when I was done and rested, I could play 4-footers okay, still having problems on my jumps...AND WALKED LIKE A COWBOY. LOL laugh.gif

My legs didn't work right for DAYS after I first started playing DDR...I had to stay home from school the next day because I could hardly walk. Here's a word of advice...if you don't exersize much....DON'T DO IT FOR THREE HOURS!! LOL. Yeah, that's the worst I've gotten from DDR...

My injuries are the fault of simple machine misplacement. At the new arcade, 8th mix is beside Skeeball.

I've been hit twice in the leg, and I'm told I narrowly missed a shot going right for my head.

Dumb arcade people. Does it make any sense at all to put DDR next to Skeeball?
