Came close. I was working on the front of the garage on a ladder adding some lighting when the ladder slid out. I was able to grab the front truss. Made sure the ladder was not under me and dropped to ground (not to high).

Only real war wound I received was shooting a nail into my finger with a nail gun. I was nailing some cross members between the trusses to add strength and stability to the garage. Kind of like what you see in the basements between the floor joists (I had a lot of scrap wood left over). I shot a nail to close to the edge and it either skipped ot shot through the edge of the wood and went into my finger. Lucky it only put a small hole in my bone and did not shatter anything. I was easily able to pull it out but I forgot to get pictures. I went back to the method I thought was easier after that. I screwed in the remaining cross members in. They really were not needed since the garage is built with lots of extra strength. I tripled up all the corners with 2*4's and went 16" on center for the trusses (code says 24" on center for the trusses is fine). Also, I went 42 inches deep for my footer on the garage and I believe code for a rat wall is 24 or 36 inches.
