I had a drum that was stored on a huge wardrobe and was pretty unstable. One day, as i opened the wardrobe, the drum fell on my head. I laugh about it today because fortunately, the wound was not as severe as i though at first.

I was practicing my front kicks on a heavy bag in my kung fu school when I decided to try to work on their height. I kicked as high as I could which made me lean back (bad form). Well heavy bags fight back and between that and my unstable position I fell backwards like a log. Yes, I was defeated by a bag.

Ha! Similar story, but Capoeira here. We're all in formation and called to do "armada", some arts might call it a "spinning back crescent".

I whipped around and threw that leg and spun so hard that I caught just enough air to take my anchored foot out from under me and land on my butt. Oooow. Lol

I imagine some funny cartoonish "woopidy woop!" sounds would've completed the moment. XD
