Logan Paul, a popular YouTuber, has had a successful career thus far. Although he is a hugely popular YouTuber, the online sensation enjoys trying new things and experimenting with life. He made headlines in every major media outlet when he engaged in a dangerous sport, like boxing. Here’s a video of the Youtuber-turned-boxer injuring himself while practicing his blows.

In this video, Paul is seen showing off his skills at a punching machine in a bar. He hit it so hard, scoring a 907, that he hurt his hand while doing it. When he saw he got hurt, he said to his associate, “I did exactly what you said, and now my hand, it broke my hand. David look at it. Well, thanks to the game man.”
Moreover, this was supposedly his sixth attempt trying to beat the high score on a punching machine in a German bar. He hit a massive cement column in the follow-through, which was just next to the machine. A week later, he had surgery, which resulted in a 40mm screw being inserted into the center of his third metacarpal, which he smashed into bits.

Unfortunately, Paul could not use his right hand, and after four months of physical therapy, he could make a fist again. He has now fully healed from his injury and can use his hand to its full potential again.
