Victim. I've told this story here before so I'll cliff's notes it. I got rammed from behind while walking between Italy and Germany in Epcot a few hours after plane touchdown on my last trip. The back of my sneaker caught under the bumper, bending my ankle forward further than an ankle should, and doing one hell of a number on my Achilles tendon. I'm a lunatic though, so I wasn't about to let a bruised tendon slow me down I just soaked my foot in a hot bath every night back at the hotel. After the first few days it only hurt downhill or down stairs.
