Glad some of you got my Goonies reference.  ;D

I have had many, but these come to mind.

Having car trouble with my friends car in HS.  I was driving and I stop on a hill and tell him I'm gonna check under the hood.  I'm looking and ask him to sit in the drivers seat and give it some gas.  He does and I immediately realize I forgot to put it in park as this toyota swallows me and I fall into the engine compartment.

I was 10 and fishing on a dock upstate NY.  The family wanders off and I toss the rod back to cast out my hook.  It got stuck in my back and I was yelling for help until they came back.  They took a while since they were 1/4 way around the lake.

I was 12 and was at a family friends house.  They had a cinder block wall garage with a hole that led to a wasps nest that they needed to get rid of.  I begged them to let me do it and they said ok.  So I got a bunch of gasoline, kerosene, 20 M-80's, and a small flare.  I shoved about a pint of gas and a pint of kerosene in there with the fire works.   I lit the flare and tossed it in waiting about 2 feet from the hole.  Lots of smoke and then nothing. 

The smoke cleared, so I did my best willie coyote move and put my eye up to this hole to look inside.  I don't know to this day what the hell I was hoping to see since the nest was about 4 feet below the hole in a dark hollow of a wall.  Well right then it blew up in my face and blinded me with gas, kerosene, M-80's, cinder block, and wasp pieces.  I couldn't see and no one was around, but there was a pool nearby so I felt my way over to it to wash my eye.  So I washed my eye with heavy chlorinated water, now it hurt more than before and I still couldn't see.  I eventually regained my sight when the adults came outside and helped after seeing me do the arms in front blind zombie walk around the back yard.  :-[
