Stupid things I've done when working on a car...

<< < (2/4) > >>

BigBlueBeast:
Left a Discovery on a set of cheap halfrauds axle stands, went in for a coffee, came out to find the discovery on the hubs (discs being changed!) and a couple of kids running away! Safe to say the axle stands were a little crushed! I then went out and bout a 6tonne set of stands! Lesson learnt, never make your own coffee when working!

denviks:
found a a damp oil patch under the front of my disco.....( i know i know , but it was anew patch in a different place ) ...so i climbed under to investigate it....while crawling on my back i went low enough to avoid that big heavy steering guard......as i went under it i brushed my nose ( gently ) on the guard which made me move my head back fast for some daft reason.... under my head was tarmac with a stone in just the right place to apply max preasure to the rear of my head

you can guess what came next.,....


a rapid move forwards away from the pain at the back of my head ....only to be confronted with a new pain in my nose. the steering gaurd hit the bridge of my nose in a big way....

and yes just for good measure i pulled my head back down again to hit the stone under my head once again.....

thats where i stopped and got out with tears in my eyes and bloody nose. i didnt go near the disco again that day  :wink:

LandRoger:

Welshbreed:
I'll be fair, if you picture the stuff we've done as we read it, it is rather funny. I been laughing a lot during this thread so far...

We're all a bunch of idiots :embarrassed:, and it's humbling to know you are to  :grin:

piggysteve:
Lying under the 110 fitting a silencer in the rain, dropped the thing on my head, ouch lots of swearing.
Carrying on wondering why I was getting wet while under the truck, oops ear hanging off. My hysterically
laughing Mrs had to steri strip the thing back on so I could finish the job so we could drive to A&E.
