A girl in my middle school gym class said she'd found a pin in the locker room and tried to keep it for herself. As soon as she did, she started to scream in agony as her arms and legs twisted in ways they shouldn't have.

A girl in my middle school gym class said she'd found a pin in the locker room and tried to keep it for herself. As soon as she did, she started to scream in agonizing pain as her limbs twisted in ways they shouldn't have. <br><br>*This took place 20 years ago.*<br><br>The gym teacher wanted a small volunteer group to stay after class to help clean the locker room. I volunteered. <br><br>A girl somehow found a pin as she was wiping off inside the lockers and the gym teacher asked her to throw it away. But the girl said she'd rather keep it for herself. As soon as she said that, she started screaming. I can't even begin to describe the pain she was in. The gym teacher rushed over and helped her to the hospital, and she never showed up to class again after that day.
