Many people get injured each year either on the job or participating in recreational – oftentimes thrill-seeking – activities. While many injuries range from minor (bumps, scrapes, bruises) to more serious injuries (broken bones, concussions, neck injuries), there are a few that can be categorized as catastrophic injuries.
