 big toes suck to break or lose too since they're doing 90% of the balancing on that foot
you can lose all the little ones and still be doing fine compared to hurting the one big metatarsal 
 It's like losing your thumb vs losing your ring finger.

 knew a guy in the army who was missing his big toe. hunting accident or some such

had to wear a prosthetic because boots don't work so well otherwise
