I'm still laughing about this! I'm assuming the guy is unconscious? I'm hoping this was the first photo taken, since he's not in the others and he got up. Or, even better, would have been to ask him to go lay down in the spot he fell just for the photo!

I think this is my favorite picture I've ever seen on the OT. I was not prepared for the guy to actually be on the floor in one of the pics of the damage

The guy on the ground in your living room was not wearing his hard hat, shame on him.

Yep. Cox bill incoming. They won't know why are what they're charging you for but it will be on the bill. Find the number to customer loyalty and have it handy.

I came through the ceiling once.


I was running some wire to put a sub panel in an addition we were building. Trying to save myself a little money on the electrical. Anyway, it was summer an extraordinarily hot in the attic. I think I temporarily passed out or blacked out because the next thing I know, I'm hanging by the joist and my feet are dangling in my daughter's bedroom.

My wife still brings that shite up every now and then......

You southern folks don't have them outside?


Water heater goes in the basement. Which I gather are rare down there.

Pulling christmas decorations I stepped off the boarded platform and fell backwards between two rafters. I caught my self, but my arse made a giant hole in the ceiling above the garage. I still call it my arse hole.

Similar situation. 21 years ago, our brand new, just constructed house, we had just moved in a day or two earlier. House was pre-wired for cable, but the Cox guy had to go up in the attic to check connections, etc. Proceeds to put his foot through the ceiling of daughter's bedroom. Cox handled it well; the same contractor who built our house came out and fixed it within a couple of days, and Cox paid him directly,

My mother in law fell through her ceiling once but no injuries. Close but no cigar!
