Best Answer

AGE 18-19

Ernest Hemingway was injured by mortar fire in World War 1. Shrapnel was removed from both of his legs in an Italian hospital.

AGE 54

His more serious injuries came from a bizarre series of events in Africa in early 1954. He and his wife Mary were in a plane crash, and a medical plane carrying him to a hospital exploded on takeoff. He suffered a badly fractured skull and some internal injuries. Less than a month later, he was caught in a brushfire that badly burned his legs, torso, and left hand.
