    Most stupid Worst thing I've done is nearly chopped off my hand with an angle grinder! This was 4 years ago as I was cutting into brickwork with a 12" diamond cutter, the grinder kicked back at me and in an instant cut through my wrist. Luckily it missed all my vital nerves and blood vessels, just managed to saw 3/4 way through my ulna :doh::redface:

      Do kitchen disasters count?

      Or what about automotive ones?
