I have been knocked out two times. 1. I was replacing the steering wheel on my Ford 800 and the wheel was corroded to the steering shaft. I used a gear puller and a long handle cresent wrench. When the wheel came loose it hit me under the chin and when I awakened I was lying next to the outside rear wheel. my mouth was bloodied and I first thought my jaw was broken however I had just biten the end of my tongue.

It was several months before I regained short term memory.
