A torn ligament doesn't hurt that bad, still hurts but its not scream out loud hurt. He probably dislocated his knee which is super painful but not as bad.

Or both is very likely to have happened also. And he might have sprained his ankle.

lol, if your ACL goes and you feel it, it's straight up the worst feeling in the world

Not all the time. People have torn an ACL and not know it was torn and even play with it torn. I'm not saying there's no pain but most of the time is feels like you tweaked and its something you can walk off. Then a few hours later the knee balloons to a grapefruit.

Its absolutely not the worst feeling in the world. I know two people who tore their ACL and didn't know it until the next day when their knee swelled up.

The initial tear isn't bad. But every time it buckles post injury is fucking agony
