A fantastic article. I have a scar on my chin, Harrison Ford style, which I'm rather proud of. As a child, I used to make up all kinds of stories about how I got it - including chasing down a bag-snatching thief that had grabbed an old lady's handbag. I claimed I had rugby-tackled him, but his boot had smashed me in the chin, leaving a scar. However, I managed to regain the handbag, return it to the grateful old lady, and hold the thief in place long enough for the police to arrive and arrest him.

The truth is I got the scar leaping across an armchair and smashing my chin on a wooden armrest, whilst playing Superman.
