Coulda been worse! Anyway, at least you learned something from that. It's the folks that do the same stupid thing over and over again, that I worry about!!
When I do stupid stuff, there's usually an audience.

$hit happens. Been there, done that. Those who haven't yet are due at some point & time.....Funny, you think you can save it from dropping & it hits that point where there's just no stopping it. Lesson learned.

I hated crash bars until I dropped mine in the garage. Love them now.

At least you didn't bust a knee or something worse.
