Whats the easiest way to break a bone? Preferably one that I can try myself and wouldn’t hurt all that much.
Borrow money from a guy named Vinnie, who wears a leather jacket. Then refuse to pay him back.
“I guarantee that I will not break any bones or kill you, nor will I use any weapons on you, but I will give you a good beating.”
I just want a broken bone… preferablly tonight. I’m trying to break my left index finger by pushing it more left, so far no luck…
C’mon guys, help out here
Why do you want to do this?
Unless you’re totally sadistic I don’t know that you would be able to intentionally put yourself in so much pain. Bones are pretty strong, so it’s probably going to hurt if you break one.
At any rate I take pain for pleasure. Thanks for the concern.
Are you a woman, d12? If so, do you have any children? You just need to tell one of them to go out and step on a crack in the sidewalk.
15 year old guy (at last check). Don’t think I’ll be mothering any kids anytime soon
Got a hammer? or a brick or any other heavy, blunt instrument? Use it. It couldn’t be simpler.
Now, why would you want to do something that stupid? Oops, you haven’t already started with your head, have you?
Break not crush silly! And make it look accidental if possible too
Here’s a link to why broken bones hurt:

I don’t think this is really the kind of thing the SDMB should be helping anyone with.
Most people that want to intentionally hurt themselves are looking for attention: the cliche is “a cry for help”. You need to be honest with yourself and decide if this is you.
If so, ask for help with words. If some of the people in your life aren’t listening, talk to other people. You know, just like everyone says, talk to teachers or counselors at school.
If none of this applies to you, then I’m sorry for giving you a standard lecture. But at least ask yourself, honestly, if it could be right.
No not that!
I should have rephrased:
What are some of the major weakpoints when it comes to bones and where are my bones most prone to breaking. How can doctors tell if something is intentional (I saw it on TV so it’s gotta be real! ;))
Well, my curiousity is piqued. What do you need an accidentally broken finger for?
Try a car door, just dont lock it before shutting it 
When is your book report due?
Just stick a finger down your throat and pretend you have the flu, man. I’ve never broken anything bigger than a toe (sewer lid + gravity + chuck taylors), but it hurts like a sumbitch.
If you must break a finger, please film it and post it on the internet. Thanks.
Then why do you want a method that won’t hurt that much? 
A stress fracture would be the least painful, but very hard to do intentionally. The severity of any method is going to depend on how strong your bones are. What might make a clean break for one person can cause a compound fracture in someone else.
Just bend a finger back until it breaks. But don’t blame me if you can never type normally again. Breaks in the fingers can lead to early onset arthritis.
That won’t break a finger bone, it will just blow out the joint and ligaments.
I read somewhere that it only takes 18psi to break a bone, if that pressure is applied correctly (or is that “incorrectly” by definition?).
The SDMB is not going to help you break your bones. This thread is closed.
