One time I was with these kids that went to my church, and I fell down and just assumed that my leg was broken. One of the little boys told me that if you would shine a light on one side of your leg, and u could see that red glow on the other, that it wasn't broken. He got this huge flashlight, and we saw the red glow, so then I knew I was ok. From then on when I would get hurt I would do the flashlight test :-)
