Oh, I've got a few... But the one that comes to mind the most is this cacophony:
I was pulling the radar mounting bracket off of an older John Deere tractor - while I was underneath it on a creeper. I was using a standard wrench instead of a metric, and it slipped off (a bit loose), and popped me in the face. I instinctively jumped a bit and cracked my head on the underside of the frame. So, laying back down, I decided to just push off on the floor with my feet to kick the creeper out from under the tractor. Managed to tangle my hair up in the rollers of the creeper... Yowch. I also snagged my shoulder on a bolt attempting to maneuver myself out of that mess... It was just a really bad day. :oops:
The only other one that I think comes close...
I was pulling the hitch pin from my old AC WD pulling a 6' rotary hoe. The pin comes out, the tractor rolls forward, and the damned hitch drops right onto my big toe. It was black and blue for six days afterwards, and took several months for the weird looking bump on it to go away... :?
I know somebody who got popped in the face by the crankshaft on their old WD... :shock:
