Here's another post-immortality story.
I recently took up Aikido. While practicing some of the
tumbling movements, I blew out a disc in my neck. C6/C7
vertebra.
Disc pressed and intermixed with the spinal cord fibers
and I can now redefine the word ' extreme pain '. Neck
left shoulder and left arm all affected.
Cervical Laminectomy fixed it. ( Shaved off some of the
vertebra and removed the herniated disc material ) A week
later and I'm still sitting at home recovering from that.

Moral of the story is:
Technique becomes a lot more important in your mid 30's
You don't bounce back from injuries quite as quickly as
you did when you were 18 !
