Summer Danger Fun!
This year's badges may look all cute and cuddly. But all of them represent a threat to Wilson's physical and/or emotional health.
So for this challenge, the objective is to submit some links or prompts inspired by any of the summer hazards depicted in the badges below. The more diabolical, the better!
And does anyone want to 'hazard' a guess at to which item represents the greatest threat to our favorite oncologist? :D

Hmm, that's a tricky one. I'd like to say the ghost, because being dead is quite a danger. But then again, once you're a ghost, you can't quite die again can you?
Unless of course, someone calls the.... Ghostbusters !! (run Spirit!Wilson, run!!!)
Sorry - none of this is what you meant is it? I just spent 7 1/2 hours sitting on a plastic chair waiting for my name to be called on Jury Duty (it wasn't thankfully) so I am a little fried tonight.

Very true. And you know us sick!Wilson fans. We want Wilson to get sick or hurt again and again. ;)
Bummer about getting called for jury duty. I'd much rather have a root canal--and that's coming from someone who's had 12! :)

I used to have an incredibly stressful job, and didn't realize I was grinding my teeth in my sleep...until it started to hurt like hell when I'd drink anything hot or cold. It turned out that I had fractured a heck of a lot of teeth, which had become abscessed.
Of course, with Wilson being head of the oncology department, and having a best friend like House, there's no reason for Wilson to feel stressed at all. ;-)

Wilson being an oncologist and very well prepared would now, of course, cover up in the sun, but the damage might already be done...
no subject
Alas, Wilson does stay pretty covered up, doesn't he? *pouts*
And as you say, the damage could already be done. But it's not the greatest threat to Wilson's well-being. It's something far more sinister. ;)

Hmm...maybe we need a badge with House on it. He seems pretty dangerous to Wilson lately!

We did quite a bit of research re: summer hazards for inspiration, and were surprised how common BBQ grill accidents are, especially charcoal grill accidents. :)

However, that's not the greatest risk to Wilson this summer. *grins evilly*

But that's not it. Someone upthread mentioned the correct badge, but didn't identify the most dangerous threat to Wilson that it represented. And the answer might be a lot closer than you think. ;-)

But it's also the season for an even greater risk to Wilson than a cute little bacteria. :)

The Wilsoneer badge does represent the greatest threat to a certain oncologist that we all know and love.
Poor Wilson, bandaged from head to toe like a mummy, trying to make a desperate escape from camp. And there's still 2 weeks to go! :D
However, it's not just the Wilsoneers and Hall of Famers who are so dangerous to his physical and emotional well-being. See the answer in the next comment. :)

MWAH-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!

You got it! :)
Wilson is never safe from us, especially during Camp Sick!Wilson. :D

First and most obvious: you could break your neck but that's not all. Diving into shallow water can also cause less serious injuries like broken bones, or a bump on the head (which could lead to loss of consciousness) Let's say Wilson jumps into a pool or lake a miss judges the distance. Once his neck snaps, or he hits his head or breaks his leg, he'd still have to figure out a way to get out of the water (assuming he's conscious) before he drowns. If there was nobody around, water (shallow or deep) could kill him. That is why you always want to swim with a buddy.
Most drownings occur in less than 3 feet of water, and many sharks prefer the shallow to the deep when they feed. Jellyfish also tend to hang out near the shore.
Another issue with water is that it tends to conduct electricity and so if you swim in a storm, you run the risk of being struck by lightening.
And this is only what I've come up with off the top of my head. Imagine how many more horrible things we can come up with to do to Wilson in the water if we really think about it.

1. As long as you aren't drunk and you know how to swim you're probably safe from drowning.
2. The diving into shallow water is pretty easy to figure out (look before you leap) and avoid.
3. As for sharks and jellyfish, that is a risk you'll have to take but I think most cities take precautions to protect the people visiting/ using the beach.
4. Lastly, lightning rarely strikes when it's not raining and so unless you swim in a thunder storm you will probably never get stuck by lightening. :D I was just trying to think of as many things we could do to Wilson in the water as I could.
