Here's my worst burn. I was in eighth grade building an AM radio transmitter for a science fair. We didn't have any soldering iron stands in school. So I had to simply lay the iron down on the table each time. Well, I wasn't paying enough attention to the iron and grabbed it hard, right into my palm !! You can't imagine the pain that caused !! But I was so embarrassed, luckily no one saw it happen. I ran to the water fountain to cool it down but I had nice, fat blisters on my hand for a week. I haven't done that since.
