Well, I am a member of the 'hit-the-head-on-the-slideout-club' for sure. Luckily, it has only happened once and that was all I needed! Early in the purchase we were just outside Las Vegas at the Ghostown KOA. I was connecting the sewer, etc. and decided to disconnect the Honda.
I got up from the sewer bay and walked back towards the Honda not looking all the way up and cracked my head on the bedroom slide (it's a high slide, I could almost walk under it).... well, I hit the corner with my forehead and nearly knocked myself out. I fell to my knees and saw stars. I got back up holding my forehead and started the Honda to run through the gears before disconnect.
I went back inside, got a towel filled with ice and layed on the couch. My co-pilot came in after checking the office for information and said what happened to you? I said I hit my head on the slide. The next question was 'what happened to your knees?".... when I fell to the ground, I scraped my knees in the sandy gravel and I had blood running down to my ankles.
All I had was a cut on my forehead and it healed virtually with no scar. I have not hit my head since, so far.
Hitting your head can be really dangerous. Be careful out there!
