:hahaha: nice work

I think my most comical moment was when I was doing up a shackle bolt with two spanners, one slipped off the bolt and managed to catapult into my face, re-chipping one of my front teeth....still haven't had it repaired again :lol:

Quite often at work when stripping back cables iv slipped and punched myself in the face. You would think i would have learnt to not pull towards my face by now.

My most recent attempt at an SJ based Darwin Award was undoing the drain nut on my transfer box. Skinned my knuckles and punched myself in the face at the same time - and HPOC Scottie saw the whole thing.

Minutes later I hit myself in the face with a 3/8ths ratchet while undoing the drain nut on my front axle...

On my old Sj I undid the bolt and removed the spring that holds on the wing mirror (plastic type). For some reason it just wouldn't come off, so I pulled and pulled, I didn't want to use a hammer as being plastic it might crack, it popped off while I was pulling and it went straight across my nose! Had a nose bleed that lasted about an hour! All was ok though, no body saw!
