I was working on a projector, standing on a chair, and slipped
and fell, I hit the top edge of the back rest with my belly,
knocked the crap out of me, messed up my ankle

Thats what I get for working late at night and using a chair,
and not a step stool or ladder

Damn I am a tard

any one else do dumb crap like that

sorry for the crappy picture

I think I lost sum IQ points

Hardcore... Once upon a time I was mounting a projector in our office's conference room, had a step ladder on top of the conference table. Step ladder collapsed (guess I'm a lil bit too heavy for the cheap plastic POS), and I went down to the table, the force of me falling to the table caused the table to break one of the leg mounts, and down it went...

I feel ya.

Nice pic.

Chairs can be safe to use, just dont lean out of its unstable area.

Unless you use those office chairs with castor wheels, have done it before its a challenge

What's really bad is when you use an office chair that swivels...

Can't tell you how many times I've had to do that, and did a few 360's/720's in the process.

Good think OSHA didn't know.. until now

PS.. +2 for the picture. Not only for the quality line-art drawing, but for the fact that you took the time to document what happened. lol

haha that must of hurt. My boss was on a swivel rolling chair once trying to mount something to the cieling, when the main Saftey guy walked in. He just put his hands on his eyes and said "i didn't see anything" and walked back out.

I love office chairs for doing things. Suprisingly i dont think ive fallen yet. If i have it must of been really hard and i forgot.

I just stayed home and slept all day after that, and when I woke up I felt like I had
been in a bad fight and lost, I had fallen other times like that but never on the chair,

I remember one time when I was younger working odd jobs, I was walking
with a bag of nails in my hand, and the place was wet and muddy, and on a
hill, I was walking down the hill and fell forward, I stuck my arms out to
catch my self falling, I some how managed to fall with the bag of nails still
in hand, except its now between my hand and the ground, I stand up quick
and I remember thinking why is this bag sticking to my hand, and wont come
off, I am shaking my hand up and down and the bag stays in place, every
one is laughing, then it dawns on me, the nails are stuck into my hand, holding
the bag in place

like some sort of delayed cartoon reaction
