Her: i broke my wrist today rescuing my sister from 40 feet up a tree
Me: OMG ! Sorry to hear that and hope both you and your sister are alright..
Her: my sister is fine if a little...clingy about me now. and im fine aswell..was only a 20foot drop and i broke my wrist by it getting caught in a fork of the branches... though it was my sister in the tree so i reset the bones and used a Ace Bandage to timber knot my arm then go rigth back up to get her
Me: Your a tough cookie.
Her: damn fire truck got there 3 hours after she was already out. if i had let her sit up there she would have gotten hypothermia and possibly lost some toes or fingers to the cold. if not her life to hypothermia
Her: tough cookie is not the half of it. at 5 years old i learned a trick to turn pain into streangth and affectivly ignore any ailment to my body. i could break a leg reset it and wrap it up then go back to running... but this is my first broken bone and i dont wish to test runing on a broken leg, though i know for a fact i can get right back up after getting shot to defend my family...
Me: remind me to ask you about that trick sometime.
Her: sorry, im not teaching it. it has some...uncontrollable side affects.
Her: i taught it to one person 6 years ago. now he cant feel anything. cant be happy cant be sad. he could kill
you and walk away as if nothing happened.
Me: Oh my.. yeah.. better for me not to learn That.

Thanks for the garlic tip! That is the only one I haven't tried yet!
Is there any good scientific research that shows this to be real?

A lot of you have said you learned to ignore the pain. I can understand that but it's not quite the same as using a mind trick to do it. I'm thinking she uses a form of self hypnosis perhaps which would involve some techniques.
Anyone use such a technique?
