A number of domestic accidents caused by stupidity!
My gas oven refused to light one day. And im there pressing the button whilst the room is filling up with gas pretty sharpish. So i decided to get a closer look as to why it wasnt lighting. So stuck my head in to look at the ignition system whilst i press the button. Then by a stroke of luck it happened to just work, igniting all the expelled gas in the oven. WOOOSH!! Had a warm face after that :)

And a tip for everyone. Never ever ever make a make shift ladder by using a pile of chairs and boxes to get into the loft. Even if it supports your weight, it wont support your weight after lifting out the heavy item from the loft. How I didnt die I have no idea! After that incident i felt like bruce willis from unbreakable. I was lucky!

Dont connect your scaleextrix to the mains power in an event to make the cars go faster. My friend who did this claimed his track elevated off the ground :)

Older AT PCs had the full 240v going through their power switch. Despite the machine being switched off i once made a mistake of removing the power switch, but the mains was still on. BANG! AIR BUMP OWCH!
