15Knocked-Out With A Shovel
Home Alone (1990)

They make it multiple falls , an iron to the face , a nail in the foot , a stigmatisation from a door hold , paint bucket to the typeface , a crowbar to the chest of drawers , stepping on sharp Christmas ornaments , and other mortifying injury .
So , a shovel may not seem like much , but this is an old - school metal snow shovel meant to break the ice and deal out with fleshy snow . With enough force , Marv and Harry could easy have a concussion from Old Man Marley ’s flack . While this is among the least painfulHome Aloneinjuries , there ’s no doubt it still hurt .
14Stepping On A Nail
Marv stepping bare - substructure on a nail is easily among the most painfulHome Aloneinjuries , and Daniel Stern ’s performance as the hapless burglar hopping around in botheration makes it one of the funniest too . After his shoes get off thanks to Kevin covering the basement stairs in glue , Marv steps on a nail and then crashes back down to the earth . While a nail to the invertebrate foot may not vote out a person , it is still a nasty wounding . Plus , thanks to the number of nervus endings in the substructure , it would have been super painful .
Keep in mind that Marv is already barefoot with Jack-tar , snow , soil , and piece of ornament go to be sticking to them throughout the night . A nail wound like Marv ’s will be prone to infection if not properly handle for , particularly with how deep it goes . pes are already the heavy parts of the soundbox to heal because of all the sweat and grime , but add in the many vein and tendons that can be puncture down there and the solvent is a painful step . Of all theHome Aloneinjuries , this is the one most likely to cause recollective - term complications after the picture show .
13Air Gun To The Groin
The testis are a notoriously sensitive arena of the male body , though this has n’t stopped a character being rack up in the groin being a basic of many comedies . Home Aloneis no exception , and one of the funniest ( and most wince - inducing , count on the looker ) is when Kevin shoots Harry between the wooden leg with an air rifle . Getting pullulate with a metal airsoft round may not be a bullet , but it is still potentially negative . It could break one of Harry ’s testicles and , at such close range , it could have punctured the skin . There is a high chance that Harry is not conk out to be capable to have kids after happen Kevin .
12Hit With A Staple Gun Three Times
Home Alone 2: Lost In New York (1992)
One of the funniestHome Alone 2trapsKevin leave for the Wet Bandits was also among the most dreadful , as it cease with Marv having several large staples left in his face from an industrial staple gun . This would basically have feel no dissimilar from getting shot with two nail at once , and Marv get stapled in three unlike spots : the case , the back end , and the groin . All the gene of the air gun are also in effect with the staple shooter , but the injuries to Marv ’s face and nose would induce even more harm . Marv would probably have trouble breathing , but gratefully , none of the staples seem to even cause a individual drib of blood .
home plate Alone and family Alone 2 are two of the most beloved movies of the holidays , but even die - hard lover missed some of these fact about the film .
11Burned Twice
flak - basedHome Aloneinjuries become a common theme with Harry , start up with his endeavor to just touch a doorhandle . It was red-faced hot thanks to being heated up by Kevin , which result in a hissing burn that could realistically result in Harry losing the use of his hand for several week . Undeterred , Harry try the back door . He opens it only to trigger a blowtorch that burns his head to a chip that is hilariously in the form of a snowflake . The funniest part is that normal mass shout when they get major burns , but Harry scarce reacts after pose it out and just gets angrier .
10An Iron To The Face
When it came to setting traps , Kevin McCallister certain did get creative , and fewHome Alonetraps showcase this betterthan Marv ’s Iron in the cheek combat injury . When Marv attempt to rend the cable television to deform on the light in the cellar , he actually pulled the precariously positioned iron from its mantle at the top of the wash sloping trough . It ’s to a great extent downplayed for humour , but in the actual existence , an iron to the facial expression would ensue in a fractured skull and shattered nose . There is even a high probability that the metal pointed end could imbed itself into Marv ’s skull , but instead , he just get a red-faced sign across his face .
9A Crowbar To The Chest
ThisHome Aloneinjury was n’t directly inflicted by Kevin , though he did facilitate it thanks to tactful deployment of Buzz ’s favored European wolf spider . Marv got rid of the spider on his boldness , only for it to land on Harry , which makes Marv hit his mate with a pry an attempt to vote down it . Although it was only one whack , it was a pretty knockout blow to Harry ’s insides , possibly resulting in internal bleeding and broken ribs . There is even a opportunity of death when it comes to thisHome Aloneinjury , since a shock that hard could rupture Harry ’s warmness . At least it resulted in some of thefunniest quotation from Harry and Marvacross both film .
8Tumbling Tools
Kevin is a master of using tools as a weapon . He even hits Harry and Marv multiple times with pecker throughoutHome Alone 2 , but this manoeuvre reaches its ultimate configuration on the top floor .

In real life , a dense object made of metal rack up someone at a full pendulum vacillation could result in concussions , broken jaw , broken nose , and even death depending on where the paint can attain . Harry does suffer some permanent damage from this trap , losing his precious gold tooth as a result .

6Landing On A Car From A Height
After block Harry and Marv from robbing Duncan ’s Toy Chest , Kevin lures them out onto a improvised seesaw . Even though Marv was by all odds not sonorous enough to send Harry flying into the air travel , it ’s still fun slapstick that lead in Harry landing on a car and collapsing the cap .
In real aliveness , if Harry managed to beget that much power into his gloaming , Harry would be instantly hospitalized or even dead . Cars are not fragile , so it reach his wheeze of botheration even funnier since he just lies there , in all likelihood in jar from the event .
