    My best effort so far has been throwing my back out very badly by bending down to pick up a tea towel

        People are so surprised when you tell them, too. It’s like they expect you were lifting boulders or stopping a runaway bus, when it’s, nah, I just sneezed/bent down slightly. So unfair

        I know a guy who sneezed in the shower while bending down and twisting slightly to pick up a shampoo bottle off the floor behind him, and put his back out such that he never worked again.
