check lintels below where you are running blocks into bison beams. I didn't and lintel had no reinforcing bars in it. I'd stacked a load of blocks while one of my bosses was red leading an RSJ. Lintel below snapped, I disappeared buried beneath a hundred blocks and a tin of red lead paint splattered all over the walls, I thought I'd amputated something. Nearest I've ever (on a building site ) come to death:yikes:

Don,t panic when your main parachute doesn't open, I'd always wondered if i would panic, but on about my 50th freefall, my main didn't open, calmly altered my body position to go for my reserve and out pops my main, ( it'd got "stuck" in a vacuum or "burble" in the small of my back) legs were like jelly when I landed tho'!!:thumbsup:

block filling bison's is a death hazard in it's own right,many a time i've seen the bison snap after forklift drivers have landed pallets of 4" block

Don't try to stop a tile from hitting the bath with your thigh. When removing old tiles, last row up by the ceiling a tile came off whole, actually had another stuck to the back, was going to miss my pillows so stuck out my leg automatically, straight through my trousers, straight into my thigh....never seen so much blood, stung a bit!

and another.... don't try and un-jam a cassette thats got stuck in your car stereo, esp if your touching 100mph on a straight bit of road, but a lorry has decided to make a left turn..... I looked up to see said lorry, hit the brakes, skidded across the road and hit a retaining wall, two somersaults and landed on the roof!! The annoying thing was that I'd just finished paying the loan off on my 2 litre S and was gonna go fully comp on the insurance the following week:mad2:

on a car stereo note - don't try inserting another cd into a single slot cd player in your car when there is already one stuck in there. if one is already stuck, accept the fate that no matter how many more cd's your insert into the slot, it will not un-stick the original cd. and, it will only proceed to clog the slot and prevent any of the additional discs from being ejected.....

courtesy of my mother-in-law :mad2: brother-in-law and hubby spent the best part of an afternoon dismantling the dashboard in her Ford Fusion just to release not one, not two but THREE cd's that she had jammed into the slot :mad2:
