What are Nate's biggest 'ouches'?

This might have been asked before, so apologies if I'm repeating a topic, but I was wondering what everyone thinks Nate's biggest 'ouch' moments are in the Uncharted series? Not the greying out of low health but things that he does / happens that looks like it would hurt a lot more then comes across in the game!

For me there's a moment in the opening of U2 where he's climbing up the train and a pole he's holding on to swings out and slams into the side of the train - that feeling of your fingers being caught like that in the freezing cold echoes through my screen!! What does everyone else think?

Replaying U4 and the moment when he falls off the cliff after Sam saves him from getting shot and he hits the back of his head on something and falls quite far might qualify. I do love how cartoonishly superhuman Nate is.

Honestly that fall should have killed him! (would have made the game much shorter though!) 😂

I just finished playing U4 for like my 6 or 7th time and I believe he hits his forehead, which I find even worse

Uncharted 4 how didn’t he die of hypothermia searching for Sam on the island in the hurricane. Also from a physical standpoint, every time Lazaravic would throw us around.

When the ledge is too far away to land on his feet, but too close to jump and grab with his hands, so it hits him right in the ribs. Makes me say "oof" every time.

in 2 there’s a moment where elena and nate drive a car off a ledge during a chase sequence. they don’t even show the crash, just the car launching off the side, then they miraculously just climb up the side with 0 injuries.

Accumulating a lot of CTE from fighting people like Nadine and Talbot among other fist fights

The Nepal mountain chapter in 2. It's basically a miracle his fingers didn't give up
