Ah yes, the self-inflicted injury.
I was skateboarding under a highway overpass (up on the cement incline) and smashed my head against one of those large cement beams. That was the dumbest thing ever because I could have tumbled all the way down the 3 story cement hill. And I had to walk all the way home in the summer heat with a knot the size of a grapefruit on my head.
Dislocated my shoulder by myself doing a jump (I landed and my shoulder kept going).
Here's a really dumb one. I was helping my mom (who's in a wheelchair) into the our van and gently bumped my knee against a metal rod. The point of the rod hit my knee just right and I was in agony, flopping around the floor for like a minute.

Why do I do these things to myself, and has anyone else ever done something like this?
No, that's never happened to me. I actually believe it to be physically impossible.

The corner of my bed sticks out just enough that when walking to or from my PC I am in constant danger of this.

I always keep hitting my foot against the fan as I leave or come into this room.

When I was about five, I was running in the cemetary, tripped, and landed face first on a gravestone. When I got up, my dad suddenly picked me up and started running towards the car. Turns out I split my lip open on the corner of that gravestone (it was a very, very precise fall  ). Now, I didn't feel anything, I only started freaking out when I saw blood (lots of it) on my dad's shirt.
The twist? We were in Canada (Prince Edward Island to be specific) and the closest hospital that we knew of was in Charlottetown, about an hour away. So my parents rushed back to the camp ground where the majority of out relatives were staying and asked if there was a hospital closer than Charlottetown. Turns out, there was one in Montague, about fifteen minutes away.
When we finally saw a doctor (I don't know how long we waited, I remember the ER being empty) I tried to convince I only needed a bandaid on the lip and I'd be fine. Well, I guess he didn't agree. Three stitches later, I'm back out.
What probably sticks out the most was when were consulting about where to go, I remember my parents showing off my lip, and my grandfather saying "That ain't that bad, that ain't that bad." I never actually saw the split, but I'll assume it was bad enough to need stitches.

I once cracked a rib by slipping on the wet bathroom floor and hitting my side against the bathtub.
I'd have sued somebody, except I can't really blame anybody but me for being stupid enough to not have a bathmat on my stupid bathroom floor.
