sorry

I've had a few, the one that still sends shivers down my spine is one is which I did get hurt in the end. I was working with a overhead crance I had just dropped a load off and the crane driver was lifting the hooks and tackel away. Anyway I was holding the hooks clear of the load so that they didn't catch on anything when I got distracted. I dropped one of the hooks as I went to pick it up but it got caught on the load we just dropped off. I stepped back and went to signal the crane to stop, just as I did the load was lifted by the hook, it slipped off and knocked my hardhat off. The marks on the brim showed it must have missed my head by mm's.
