OT: what’s the worst thing you stepped on with your bare feet?

if we can go back to our youth, I was running on the boardwalk, probably at seaside,
and drove a splinter/piece of wood into my foot
I think there was a health station or something like that, that removed it
 
#1 - Nail pop on our deck, tore out a chunk of skin
#2 - Dried rose bush stem that was densely thorned

On a less painful note, cold cat vomit in the carpet first thing in the morning, more times than I'd like to remember.
 
When I was 3 I stepped on broken glass. severed my little toe on my left foot. Went to the hospital to have it sewn back on.

#2 sounds like a special a waiter would read to you at a high-end restaurant. "Tonight, sir, we have a wonderful dried rose bush stem encrusted with dense thorns in a blood demiglaze."
 
While I was remodeling our master bath, I stepped right on a rusty 4 in nail sticking out of the floor. Imagine Harry in Home Alone on the stairs. Went right through sole of my shoe but not through my entire foot.
 
Old days at the beach- sliced open foot on the razor sharp pop top tabs from beer cans. Many times. Recently, small snake.
 
I was with my friend Harry and we were trying to break into this house over on Lincoln. It was very G. Well, after trudging up steps covered in tar, I stepped right on a huge nail. I kept going, but I should have given up right then. Harry and I got pretty torn up.
 
Yellow jackets are the worst. Didn’t quite step on them initially . But was emptying my childhood home to sell it. Random black tarp way in backyard. Large farm type yard. Stepped on the tarp to pick it up and immediately the yellow jackets were on me. No clue how many times I got stung but literally stripped naked and ran to get the hose and get them off. Stepped on a few in the process. Thought I was gonna be a goner !
 
Nothing is worse than what happened to Marv while he was trying to kidnap Kevin Mccalister.

I stepped in a massive pile of dog sh1t once while I playing whiffle ball when I was 10.

As a kid, my brother stepped on one of those big sparklers while throwing his sparkler. Ran around like a scalded monkey.. because he was. unforgetable.

Me? about 5 years old.. jumping in a kiddie pool that some "old woman from the old country" had put in an empty opened tin can.. sharp edge sliced my foot open and the kiddie pool looked like a Jaws movie.
 
The smallest piece of glass you could imagine. For a week my foot would hurt if I hit the correct angle as I was walking. My wife kept telling me she sees nothing. Finally, I buy a magnifying glass and she finds it. The fvcking thing was about the size of a grain of coarse salt.
 
A swimming pool ladder covered in these little bastards that was submerged off a dock into the Gulf of Mexico. It might as well have been covered in razor blades instead and there would have been less slices and less blood. The bloody footprints made my girlfriend vomit.

When I was a kid I was in Hilton head for vacation. My cousins and I thought it’d be fun to throw rocks at one of the gators in the pond behind our house. My cousin nails the big guy right on the head and the gator starts coming for us. So we all start running. While I was running I ended up stepping on a red ant hill barefoot. It sucked as my leg was covered in biting ants in like a second. That was the worst thing I ever stepped on.

Legos were forged by Lucifer himself and my house is full of them.
Barbie shoes hurt as well. They’re not as painful as the dreaded Lego. We’re past that stage, but have little ones in the family. This thread has reminded me to pack slippers for tomorrow. Lol

A Yellowjacket when I was about 6. Probably why I cannot do bare feet other than the beach or shower. Don’t wear shoes in the house but have to have slides on.

When I was 11 years old, I was changing a light
bulb hanging over the kitchen table. when I jumped down off my chair, I had not realized my
German Shepard came in and laid down, when
my foot came down on his neck and his big ass teeth went through through my ankle. What a mess.
 
The day after the meet of champs my junior year shuffling across the carpet and a 3 inch sewing needle that my sister lost went right into my foot and disappeared. Missed the entire indoor season

Multiple rusty nails as a kid as shoes were optional in our neighborhood
