Took a screech-aroo and hit it with a hammer. That went off in my hand. Fortunately I had also wrapped it in tape, and the thing blew up in a way that resulted in the tape shielding my hand and my hand just being opened...

Ended up with some good burns, blood blisters, and chunks of the thing embedded in my hand, but fortunately nothing serious.
