Skateboard legend Tony Hawk suffered a gruesome dislocated finger over the weekend that required his wedding ring to be cut off before his bones were set "to their full upright and locked position," he revealed alongside his X-rays Wednesday:

My summary of 2020 (so far): a middle finger, but make it dislocated. Thanks to Dr. Cho for putting it back where it belongs. Here’s to more healing for everyone in the other half. https://t.co/EMyzbvVCLU

Just received my x-rays from Saturday’s debacle. They had to cut my ring off before returning my bones to their full upright and locked position. My fingers are still sore / stiff / swollen but mostly functional. And I still love my job. 💀🤘🏽🛹 https://t.co/fbvWUdszJD

"And I still love my job," the 52-year-old noted.

Hawk has suffered much worse while skating such as a broken pelvis, fractured skull and over 20 concussions, according to CNBC's Lucy Handley.

Hawk has won 10 X Games gold medals, per the event's official website, and made history there over the years:

By 25 years old, Hawk won 73 of the 103 professional contests he had participated in.
