i was sitting on a bus speaking with a friend of mine about teenagers getting hurt doing dumb things. she proceeded to explain that it is possible to become blind from getting hit in a certain part of the back of the head extremely hard. is this true? and exactly how hard? like falling off the top bunk hard or being thrown down a big flight of stairs and landing badly hard?
