Tripped over my own extension cord at the job site and took out a light stand
Was setting up for a small event shoot in downtown Portland yesterday and had my cord running across the floor like an idiot. Caught my foot on it, yanked the whole thing, and watched a $200 light fixture crash onto the concrete. The bulb shattered everywhere and the stand got a nasty bend in it. Had to scramble and rig up a backup with a clamp light from my car for the next 45 minutes. Client showed up early and just laughed it off thank goodness. Anyone else have a klutz moment that cost you time or gear?

$200?! No kidding, that one hurts bad.

Was that actually a $200 light fixture though? I've seen those same stands and fixtures online for way less than that.
