In this case, there might be a difference between just getting it on, and going at it hard enough that the light potentially fell out of the ceiling. The latter is most impressive, but hardly an "ordinary incident of life".
I was on WCB once, partially because I was looking at a young lady in the parking lot at work, and slipped on the lone patch of ice in the parking lot while walking to my car.
