1. Hangovers
2. Broken arm caused by falling off bar while dancing when drunk.
3. Broken ankle caused by falling down stairs when leaving bar whilst drunk.
4. Hypothermia caused by being unable to find your way back to apartment because you are too drunk to remember.
5. Fractured skull caused by not paying attention as you walk under a lift after leaving the bar.

:shock: Over the years all of those have happened to someone I have been with, apart from the hypothermia. That caused the death of a young brit in Andorra. He got lost and simply sat down and went to sleep :cry:

Are you brilliant students !

Masters of the "observations"

or

Speaking from experience?

All the answers are correct but;

Ian you have caught the Mike ( from NS ) virus. What is this virus ? It is called the shotgun answering virus. A rare university related disease manifested by answering all test questions with as many possible answers as you can list. Then you let examiner decide which is correct.
All 10 answers are correct BUT 5 are more common. More evident. More ,,,,,,just more.

Far Queue,
Again all your answers are correct and tragically last year one person ( from England ) froze to death when he lost his way to hotel from abistro just 100 meters away, fell in a deep ravine and froze. Two days later,,,,
You are a very experienced social man! How do you ski ?

Seriously consider risks you are taking and think injuries you might have !

2. Knee ligaments

3. Sprained/broken thumb

4. Collar bone/shoulder break
