My first ever lesson in lab/desk safety came in high school, when I stuck
the
handle end of a soldering iron in my mouth and reached to the left with my
right hand.  When I could find what I was looking for, I turned my head to
look over and stuck the iron into the back of my left hand.

I naturally opened my mouth to, ah, loudly express my displeasure with the
situation, which sent the iron tumbling into my lap.

Lesson learned.
