Never try to clean grass from under a lawn mower while the engine is running (this was before safety release bars).

Never try to clear the snowblower's chute with your hands while the engine is running (this was also common before safety features were added).

Never use an electric hedge trimmer while you're 3 sheets to the wind (woman lost 3 fingers on that one).

Do not use a garden hose to douse an electrical fire from a downed utility wire (woman almost bought the farm on that one).

I know there's more but I cannot think of them right now.
