Do those mild shock responses count? I got thrown into an ambulance after getting hit by a car when I insisted I was going to ride my bike away from the scene because I was sure I was ok. I apparently couldn't tell that my handlebars had been badly mangled, rendering the bike obviously unrideable. I didn't realize how disoriented I must have been until I saw the handlebars the next day. My friend later told me I was babbling a bit about finishing the ride when I called her on my cell from the scene, but I didn't remember that conversation.. The fun part was that about 10 minutes after the crash, the fog in my head had completely cleared, and then I realized "hey, this really hurts". Cracked rib, nothing serious, but ouch all over for several days.
