My Situation

A few years back,
I was outside with my first telescope and i was looking at one star. And because i was inexperienced I thought it was saturn. Anyways this was at like 11:00pm at night. My dad was in bed upstairs watching tv. I ran from outside all the way upstairs. Told my dad about it. I went back downstairs and cause my eyes adjusted from the pitch black to the bright light in his room i just ran outside and stacked it over my telescope (lucky it wasn't that expensive) and yea it hurts when all of your eyepieces from your tray fall onto your head plus the telescope. So I layed there in pain and waited for my eyes to adjust to the darkness. My dad comes outside and couldn't see me. All he saw was the telescope on the floor but not me. He eventually finds me and i get up, shake it off and go inside for the night. In the morning i wake up with a black eye, and a few cuts. Who never knew that you could be injured by your telescope.
hahahah.
