Hope you recover quickly. Don't push yourself on heavy squats or deadlifts before the ankle is properly healed, though. You'll do yourself more harm by trying to rush back.
I also found out that I can't box jump 54 inches. I know this because when my feet didn't clear the plates, I bailed on my right leg, tore a ligament in my right ankle, and fractured my tailbone.
I'm not sure when the next time I can squat/deadlift will be, but I'm going to use this time to play catch-up with my upper body. Probably just lots of pull-ups and mostly upper body isolation. I don't think my tailbone will get in the way as much as my ankle, and I've rolled my ankle a lot--I'll be back in 2 weeks with a brace probably.
Keep us updated ~
