Ooh a whole set of toenails! *that* is horrible.

...Pretty much exactly as Ryobi described.

It was get out (I wasn't wearing proper footware), we were dismantling the "tower" centre stage, it was like a wooden scaffolding made up of 4" x 4"s, one particularly large & heavy section came down squarely on my foot.
I was working as an assistant to the designer for that production.
