No injuries to my other leg and no broken bones. I think the left knee caved so easily because it had been weakened from my 2002 motorcycle accident. Mixed blessing; if it hadn't imploded, I may have broken bones and/or tore up the ligaments in my right knee, my ankles, hips, etc. At least this way I still have one "good" leg.
Wish my wife had taken photos right after impact. The joint was grotesquely misplaced.
