    Mine was a faulty shotgun almost blowing my foot off. It made one heck of a dent in the ground 6 inches in front of my foot.

    Oh man... that would've sucked... o-o

    Well, I'll just explain it now.

    So one day, back in 2009, my friend and I were walking up the street to his house. (We were just coming back from my house after riding our bikes around for a bit, so we chilled there for a few minutes.) He told me to wait in front of a large house we were passing by, because he was going to go get his football, and we were going to play "Jackpot" with it. So I say, "Alright, I'll be right here, heh," and he runs towards his house and into his garage to get the football. Right when he's in the garage, I decide to go along the side of the house and stay under the shade. (It's mid-summer, so it's hot as mess outside.) Suddenly, this dude, who looks like he's in a gang, tells me to "Get the f**k away from his house," and he walks back inside for a moment. So I start walking away from the house, but then he comes running out the door, grabs me by my shirt, nearly choking me in the process, and flings me on the side of the house. Still grasping my shirt, he pulls something out of his pocket. A gun... and he said "You see this, you f**ker?" He then drops down the clip partly and shows me it's loaded. I panick, and he tells me to shut up, or else my brain is going to be splattered all over the side of the house. My friend comes rushing to help, and he aims the gun at him. I slowly jesture "No. Go to your house. Call 911. Now!" He walks away, eventually sprinting back. Then the dude yells and says "What did you tell him!?" I say nothing, and he puts the gun right up the my forehead, the tip right in the "Bull's Eye" zone. I said "I told him nothing!" At this point, he clicks the gun, and throws me to the ground, huffing "You better hope you didn't!" Now, he's aiming at my chest, and since I'm on the ground, I think it's time I act, and act fast! I quickly smack the gun out of his hand, then he tries running at me yelling "You f**king b**ch!" Seeing this as a good oppurtunity, right when he reaches for me, I table-top flip him with my feet and sent him hurtling into the air. I get up, and quickly run for my life. I see him rush for the gun, so I pick up the pace. I yell, like anyone could do, "Someone help me! Help me!" He acts like he's about to shoot me, but then he gives up and rushes back inside. I reach my friend's house, whose mother had already dialed 911. He was then convicted of "Harassment of younger civilians," and was then sent to the local Juvenile Detention Center for the next couple of weeks... However, he moved away from here when he was released, hoping that someone like me or my friend wouldn't cross paths with him again. He would've went to jail had he actually shot the gun, but since he didn't, he couldn't. Even though jail probably wouldn't have been enough...

    Yeesh.
    I have never had a gun pointed at me.
    Can't say I know what it would feel like,
    But I'm going to guess down right terrifying.

    This however did spark my memory.
    Not that it was scary, it was just a reaction
    Of "Ow, my limbs" and "I'm an idiot."

    So;
    My old 750 Watt Power Supply for my Computer,
    It stopped working. I decided to try and fix it.
    Myself.
    And I forgot to ground both it and myself.
    So I opened it up with an old modular screwdriver.
    (I mean really old; Pre-1990s)
    Then I begin removing the cooling fan, which is in my way.
    Then my bit slipped, and my screw driver touched one
    Of the metal components of the Power Supply's housing.
    Suddenly, I realized I can't move;
    My hand wouldn't turn the screwdriver.
    Then half a moment later, I got this sharp feeling of pain.
    Not slight pain;
    Enough pain to may me cry out and forcefully let go of the thing.
    The screwdriver however stayed where it was.
    The bit had welded it self to the housing;
    The plastic around it was blackened,
    And I had a 2nd degree burn all over my right palm.
    And my hand wasn't very responsive for the next 2 days.

    I was lucky the electricity decided that my vital organs
    Weren't the path of least resistance.
    Also I'm an idiot.

    And that's how capacitors work when you accidentally short them out.
    With metal objects.
    Also never buy screwdrivers made entirely of metal.
    - Soviet made ^

    Back! Stayed home tonight because it's freezing outside. I was asked to stay downstairs because my room's not well insulated.
