Has anyone else ever fallen asleep with your legs crossed Indian style...
... and then not been able to walk when you wake up?

That happened to me yesterday, and it took almost an hour until I could walk right.

2. I did something similar...
I laid-down with my legs crossed to watch TV because I was badly hungover and didn't want to do anything...and 4 hours later when the phone rang, I stood up and only one leg went straight...the other leg cramped in a bent position and when I tried to straighten it...I snapped my gastroc tendon.

Fuck! That hurt.

4. A guy I once knew was into the heavy chemicals and got loaded one night

and passed out jack knifed between a couch and
a chair with his legs up around his head.

He was unconscious in that position for two days.

When he came to all the nerves in his legs were dead.

Now he walks with (great difficulty) with a cane and has
no feeling in his legs.
