it probably would have been worse in pants (if you squeamish don't look)
I was wearing my day wear anderson and there was a knock on the door. When I answered the fedex man was getting in his truck and zoomed away. He left a box about 12 inches X 12 inches on the edge of a small table. It had no warning signs or notices. I bent over to pick it up with hands on each side and all it did was dent the box inward and the slight movement made it fall off the table onto my foot. It was a 90 pound kettle bell my daughter had bought. I changed into a more substantial anderson hiking kilt (well first there was some rather loud swearing ect, sorry to any who heard it being an opera singer can have it's pitfalls)and went to the doctor. If it was just broke (both toes were fractured)I probably wouldn't have bothered as there's not much to do for a break but it was bleeding pretty good and my wife was worried about infections or needing stitches and I really had nothing else to do for the rest of the night.
I've only sued one entity in my life and that was because although the city official agreed they had done what I said and owed me the money in Oklahoma city you have to sue to get it so I did but I am pretty mad at the delivery man.
I probably won't because it's not in my nature. Medically I'm only out a 20 dollars in co-pay and miscellaneous upcoming for gauze ect but I probably won't be going hiking for a while.
