Did you ever get hurt doing something with machinery, and never had your pap find out?
I (being 14 and in a hurry)jumped down from our JD A, leaving the sickle bar mower running. My foot hit the oily drawbar and slipped in towards the PTO.

Never told him. Never will, but I remember this every time overconfidence starts to make me careless. I count myself lucky.
