I have a couple...
Trying to burn/blow out bushing on a leave spring with oxy acetylene and having the rubber boil and explode, spitting molten rubber at my face and putting several holes in my lips, and having the red hot center of the bush come flying at me at a vast rate of knots!!
While replacing an engine on an Armoured Personel Carrier, I though it would be an awesome idea to line up the mounting pin holes with my finger while we lowered the engine in with a crane... I pulled my finger out just quick enough to loose the skin off the tip of my index finger... I had lost a finger before and had it sewn back on again before this, so I really should have learned that 4 months of rehab learning how to use your hand again really isn't an enjoyable experience...
I have also produced sparks many times, and let the smoke out of one or two electrical components too!!
