When I was young I got my first bike with real brakes on the handle bars. I didn't like them though, so I put my foot into the spokes of the wheels and it flipped me off of over the handle bars, and then the bike came crashing down on me with the handle bars making a huge gash in my chest :shock: I still have the scars.

Another one - a week before I left Benheck I was working on my portable N64 and tried prying a heatsink off of an old video card that still worked. The chip ended up prying up with the heatsink and I could see the insides of the chip!

Playing Doom 3 for the first time I got the s--t scared out of me and I fell out of the chair onto a laptop computer I put there to charge the batteries.

Yeah, i've beat the metaphorical excrement out of myself too. :wink: And I could go on and on and on about it...
I'd imagine right now you wish you were a cuttlefish...

Once I was cooking eggs and I had spilled stuff on the stove top, so while the eggs are boiling I start to mop it up with some paper towels and and I guess I wasn't really thinking that hard since it never crossed my mind that I was waving kindling in front of the active burner! Well it pretty much scared the crap outa me when suddenly my paper towels turned into flaming ball of doom! (at least the sink was write there and I had the sense not to through them across the room or anything)
