Ouch!A friend was once given a biopsy by a sleep-deprived junior doctor.
They needed a sample of his colon, so inserted the long bendy jaws-on-the-end thingy, located the suspect area and... he shot through the ceiling. Doctor had forgotten to administer any anaesthetic.
What was your ouchiest moment?

I also thought it was 'weaver fish' until I was looking for an image for it this morning. Apparently - and, arguably, uninterestingly - it's from the latin 'vipera', via Old French 'wivre' ('serpent', or 'dragon'). So much for 'know thy enemy'...
Of course, they should properly be referred to as 'that little splodge of guts I just flip-flopped out of existence'.
