Maybe not that funny , but it's a good story anyway..

Bite the Bullet, Origin/Meaning

When U.S. Civil War casualties were carried off the field with a mangled arm or leg, the soldiers couldn't turn away when a surgeon with a bloody apron approached with a scalpel or a saw. Sometimes, the supply of painkillers and whiskey had run out, forcing the medics to place a soft-lead bullet in the patient's mouth. It wasn't much, but it made amputation a little easier to bite the bullet instead of lying on the table screaming.

Ouch...

Yeah, and a little lead poisoning never hurt anyone, it just builds character.
