Default Re: You ever do something reallySTUPID?

I was helping my dad as a 15 year old kid restore my early 30 Rdst. PU. I was up on a ladder operating the ratchet style chain hoist to lower the motor back into the frame. Somehow I let go of the handle and the handle kept ratcheting up and down. The problem was the handle was under my chin and kept beating me in the chin. Being up on the ladder and off balance I couldn't escape the attack. I think I still have the scar from that almost 50 years later. Still got the truck too and lots of good memories with dad!
