Closest call I had with anhydrous was when I had an applicator with a pull rope valve for on and off. The rope ran out through a gap under the rear window of the tractor cab.
I always replaced the rope every year, but one year I got in a hurry and didn't. Out in the field, I turned around on the end, dropped the machine in the ground, and pulled the rope to open the valve. The valve opened=and the rope broke.
I was going across the field thinking, "What to I do now, Coach?" When I got out in the middle of the field, I swung the unit with the wind, took a huge breath, hit the shut off on the engine, bailed out of the cab, and took off running. I then walked around and came up to the tank with the wind and shut off the valve at the tank. Then replaced the rope. My lesson for the day.
My father-in-law did custom fertilizing with anhydrous. He was a staunch Methodist, and in the entire 17 years I knew him, from the time I met my wife until he passed away, I only heard him swear twice. Both times were when he'd burned his fingers with anhydrous.

Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
