15 or so years ago I was one of the technical leads for a planned radial bearing replacement on an Allis-Chalmers reactor coolant pump motor. These machines are vertical motors, 13,200 volts, around 10,000 HP and about 65 tons. Near the end of the job a technician went to smack a large spanner nut with a dead blow and the dead blow broke, spilling God knows how many little lead balls into this machine.
Cost the utility millions in lost generation as they were forced to tear into the motor to retrieve all the lead shot.

Was on a job with a farm mechanic Tuesday. 1 ton flat bed shorty decked out with boxes welders the works. He opened the side box to reveal a well organized box full of hanging wrenches on hooks. I start laughing, he says what gives? I say your 10mm is missing. I get the F u and he walks off. That made me laugh harder.
