I had a drum that was stored on a huge wardrobe and was pretty unstable. One day, as i opened the wardrobe, the drum fell on my head. I laugh about it today because fortunately, the wound was not as severe as i though at first.

Reminds me of a guy I knew who was in the navy on a "boomer" (nuke missile) sub. The toilets on it had special pressurization systems to force the contents out into the ocean when underwater. Well you had better follow the instructions if you used them, part of which involved closing a ball valve before flushing. If you didn't do this the pressurization would force the contents back up at the flushee resulting in "blowing shitters". Since you had to clean up your own mess nobody made this mistake twice.
