My dumbest thing? I had just started at a new Dodge dealership as a line mechanic, I was the FNG. I had to go from one side of the shop to the other, and was on my little wheeled stool, so I pushed off from my lift and went rolling across the shop with my arms open, to be funny. I accidentally rolled over the grate, which caught my wheel and my stool, and I went flying. Yeah, hilarious...
Second dumbest thing, also at that dealership, I was probably 19 or so, and I had a pretty serious Snap On 3/8" drive air ratchet. I was working on a Dodge ram and was going to use it to loosen the caliper bolts for a brake job so I had my head in the wheel well up close and personal. The caliper bolt was stuck pretty good, so when I hit the button on the ratchet, it didn't break the bolt loose...the ratchet swung around and whacked me in the jaw, smacking my teeth shut over my tongue. Had to leave work losing like a pint of blood/minute...
Oh, those were the days...thank heavens I'm a little older and wiser now!
