A childhood belief about general

When I was little I did and thought the stupidest thing ever! I was on a hammock and I rolled it up so I was literally sitting on a thick rope type thing. I kept being pushed backwards by the unstable fabric beneath me, but it didn't hurt, until I suddenly fell forward and hit my jaw hard against the floor. I smashed it so hard that I began to bleed and my mom was just cracking up because she "told me so." After I calmed down and the blood receeded a little, I asked my mom where my chin went and she told me that I still had it, and she gave me a mirror for me to see for myself, but I swore to her that the tip must still be in the living room! (I thought that it was like an egg and that I had cracked it) So I went back and spent the last 10 minutes and after returning from suturing, spent the next few days looking for the missing piece.
