Okay this is a random question kinda, but ever since I thought of it I cant get it out of my head...just seems really horrible...
If you landed on your back into thumbtacks, wouldnt a few hit your spine?

I don't think thumbtacks (the ones used in pro wrestling) are long and strong enough to penetrate the bone.
Ha Ha I said penetrate.

Huh huh huh, penetrate.
Flesh and muscle should stop the tacks, probably has hapened though.

regularly they use bulletin board kind of tacks. those are a little bit shorter and much much weaker to enter the spine than rought use tacks... it could hapend but it would be a freak accident, much easier to permanently injure yourselve with a traditional wrestling move than some tacks.

I don't think it hurts that badly, and on a side note I think the spot is played out.

Its like the old carnival trick, the bed of nails. If you laid on just one it would hurt like a bitch, but when there are many put together the pressure is spread out. I'm sure it still hurts pretty bad though.

I'm sure it still hurts pretty bad though. Those nails have to all be pointing the same way and of equal length and distance from eachother with the board trick though. The thumbtacks don't apply.  What scares the crap out of me is when Cactus gets pedigreed into the tacks by Triple H. He ends up with several sticking out of his eye brow. A centimeter or two and they'd be in his eye. I highly doubt his eyelid would've protected him. It gives me the heebie jeebies. |

I'm sure there are plenty of those tacks aren't event tacks, just pieces of metal with round heads that LOOK like tacks from far away when mixed in with numerous actual tacks.
Anybody know what I am trying to say here?

I bet you Triple H read this thread when he went on his "I hate internet fans because they've never been involved in the business and have no idea how it works" rant.

The short flat bottom tacks aren't that strong, and they don't hurt that bad either. When I used to do backyard wrestling (stupid) there were times that I landed on them and they didn't even all stick into my skin.

Nick Mondo said that some of the worst pain was having to pull tacks out of his hip bones, that sounds rough.
