Doing a main bearing change on a landcruiser once, lying under the car trying to put the main caps back on.

Put the main cap in position but couldn't reach the bolt, so I slowly took my hand of the bearing cap - it didn't move. I still didn't trust it. wriggled it with my fingers - it didn't move.

So I rolled to the side and turned back just in time for the falling bearing cap to turn half a turn and punch a hole into my cheek bone with the machined edge.

Worst part of it was knowing how stupid it all was......Doofus
