    Once I accidently cut a Yellow jacket ground nest in half with a gas powered brush saw and got stung a million times. Cheers!

    Yeah but it could of been a lot worse. After I got swarmed I went into a blind panic and started running towards Rose Wall Cliff. They call it rose wall cliff because it is a 60 foot drop with wild rose bushes growing up the side. If I would of went over I would of tumbled through 60 feet of wild rose bushes  plus the yellow jackets would of followed me and stung me all the way down. And when I came to a stop it would probably be on a pile of rusty cars and then I would of had to get a tetanus shot.  Cheers This post was edited by Nanoose at December 16, 2021 9:13 AM MST

    A girl at a light brown table had a big coffee on the edge and she swiped it with her arm by accident and it splashed all over the thin rug. I saw the whole thing. I have done the the same. She goes huuhhhhhhhhhh! A full McDonalds big cup. This post was edited by CosmicWunderkind at December 15, 2021 9:17 PM MST

    I splattered some sulphuric acid from a bottle. It burned a hole though my shoe.

    You got your shoe off before it burned your foot?

    While working with the city sewer department --

    I was at the bottom of a manhole.  A private sewer line pipe from someone's house was at the top of the manhole, the pipe sticking out in the manhole, right under the street level.

    And someone in that house flushed their toilet and I got flushed on. The pipe was about five feet above my head and I got a full toilet-flush full of feces splattered on my head and shoulders.

    I thought is was hilarious! Ha! We all laughed. My co-worker took me home and they let me "call it a day."

      Women accidentally fell for me left and right. Occupational hazard, I guess.
