Dropping a 55 gallon fish tank on your big toe hurts

Don't talk unless it was full of water. Thats what happened to me but with a hundred gallons. 🙁 Moving days suck.

I misread 55 gallons as 55 pounds. Suck it up, pansy. 😉

Uhh, I'm not sure exact weight, but I think it's probably close to around 150 pounds. This thing has ~3/8" thick glass.

Two days ago I peeled my big toe nail off.

I bet your toe is a lovely hue of purple eh? Or is it more of a blackish green?

You dropped 1000+ pounds of water and tank on your foot? How were you moving it?

Yeah, right. 100 gallons of water weighs over 800 pounds and that does not even take into consideration the weight of the tank itself. There is no way that you and all your imaginary friends were carrying or even able to budge a 100 gallon tank full of water. Even if you were able to lift it in your fantasy world, that sort of weight dropped on your foot would easily crush it. Want to do the math on the force of impact of nearly half a ton dropped a few feet?
