Is its true that if you slice up patatos and put them around your arm you can break your arm(pls read details)
I heard from somewhere that if you slice patatos and put them allll over your arm and wrap it in cloth and leave it there for 24 hours then wack your arm againest somthing it will be a pain free break???? I don't think it's true, and i'm curuios to know, but Im not gunna go try it just to figure if it does.do you think its real or just a myth???

yes its true because the potato peels have some sort of acid in them that really soften and sooth your arms, however; if you put in some delicate places, such as you wrist or fingers and you leave it for over night, and you apply pressure to it, yes it may break, but dont try it Savey (jack sparrow)

NO that's not true.I don't know where you came up with that idea,but it sure sounds ridiculous.Not to mention it would still hurt beyond belief.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot! Where do people come up with these brainfarts?

O.K. contrary to what all the netterweb Rambos and cyber badazzes would have you believe breaking your arm is going to be painful no matter what you wrap it in or how long you leave it wrapped whether it's for 24 hours, 24 seconds, or 24 centuries.

Myth and a stupid one at that


Hmm....
Never heard it but I don't believe it. I've broken bones and I'm pretty certain "patatos" won't help the pain.

JMHO

myth
completely preposterous


lansatx04
I am gonna go with myth on that one. It seems like what you said insinuates that potatoes weaken bone somehow and I just don't see how this is possible.


Spitfire
y would u want to break ur arm?


mary

Potato .....and no i don't think thats true at all. i suppose if i found myself suddenly in need of an arm breaking and i had nothing but potato's i would give it a shot though, you never know.

Myth


riverrat15666
Do you mean potatos? Yep ...it's true ....So...don't go around wrapping yourself with potatos and wacking against anything. They should put a warning label on every potato sack.


momma T
There is no such thing as a "painless" break when it comes to your bones. Trust me, I have broken my arm 4 times. After the initial pain from the break, your brain releases endorphins that act as a natural pain killer.
That only works until you get to the hospital and they have to set the bone (if it is out of place like mine were). Then it hurts like crazy again.

i think its a myth! but you can pass out by holding your knees to your chest for a while then getting up really quick (my best friend stupidly did it)! ill get some one to try this one!
