We get bogey wall wipers at work, fuck knows why they have to stick them to the walls like trophies, some of them are impressive dimensions though.

When I was in the RAF I was working in America on detachment and was doing a see-off on a Harrier GR7. Got the jet fired up and then had to wait ages to get it out due to some other issue and the jet caught fire, had flames licking out the top of the engine bay doors. The thing had live bombs, missiles and rockets on board. I gave the pilot the fire signal and he shut down, jumped out and ran away, I emptied my fire lance into it and the fire didn't stop. Two minutes later the USAF fire truck was there and doused it in foam.
Might not sound that scary, but being there with a jet fully laden with weapons and fuel stood 3 feet away with a bottle of CO2 got my heart rate up.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Not me personally but a guy at work was replacing some spring pins on a lorry. The usual method we did was to take the caps off and jack the leaf spring down with a 10ton bottle jack. He hadn't seated it correctly and while stood next to it, the jack came out at a very high speed and cracked him on the head. He was in hospital for weeks. Seeing the mess made was rather disturbing.
We also had some guys doing the sky lights in the workshop on a scaffold tower. One was up top, another at the bottom. They decided it was easier to push it around with a man up top. However they pushed the tower straight into the pit and the guy fell straight into the pit. Amazingly he got up and walked away with no real injury :/

got a few, when working on the forth rail bridge a lad dropped a 20ft scaff tube from the top which over 300ft. it bounced off a scaffolding railing that was set up and went about 100ft out into the water.
when walking on to the bridge one morning we saw a guy with no shoes on and a rucksack walking towards us, he waved and said hi and then lept over the side. that was pretty grim. Unfortunately it happens all the time they just dont mention it in the news or papers to stop people doing the same.

Why was she so close underneath where you were working?
Also why would you have your own public liability insurance when employed by a company, unless you were subcontracting to them of course?
always had my own public liability as I was self employed and sub contracting work for differnt companies then I became pay as you earn sondidnt need it.

Had a 911 on my hand once, for much longer than is strictly good for you. Because my boss was a snow blowing fuckwit.
Nearly passed out from the pain. Thought I was going to lose all my fingers on that hand.

Got a van full of pikeys jump out at doncaster race course with machetes ended up getting away but shit myself when they lobbed one and it literally just missed the side of the car (they must have followed me around my work and assumed I had cash on me)!!!
Another customer that owed me money I went into their premises in Sheffield and on the table were everything from large knives to guns automatic firearms and what looked to be grenades and there's me asking some much bigger and clearly loony ppl for money, yeah they're scary days in my job. Another scary night was receiving a phone call from one of our other guys who was on a site in selby saying the landlord had locked him in the premises and was threatening to kill him (I heard it over the Fne too) I had to go out to selby to either try n calm the situation or end up in fisticuffs (my missus actually fell out with me for going) when I was there I went in and sure enough the guy was mouthing off at me also with a metal bar and 2 staffs bull terriers which were clearly not looked after and had scars all over their faces, luckily i managed to get everything we needed and there was no fighting but still an arse clenching moment!
Another story is my dad was up a ladder at work and the ladder slid with him on it, somehow managed to run under the ladder and catch it with him on it and it was from around the height of a normal house tbh

Got a papercut once, pretty painful if I am honest.
Orange squirted juice in my eye when I tried peeling it.
