    Yep! A couple months ago actually. I was running and my kids kept needing me for things and by the 4th time I'd had it with turning the machine off and then back on (my pause is only 60 sec then I lose all data). So I kept it running and forgot I did that when I jumped back on and the belt was still going lol! To make it worse, there were a stack of moving boxes directly behind it so I couldn't slide off and it kept rubbing on my thigh, knee, waist, and ankle until I side rolled off it.The bruises and scabs were gross.

    Haven't seen that or have it happen to me but I did see someone pop a stability ball while doing sit ups

    I usually break them. About 9 to date have fallen due to my running.

    Once, my daughter threw a stuffed animal under my feet and messed me up.

    I can't use the treadmill, because when I get off I am super dizzy. I have had a couple scares on the stair climber though when my foot got stuck in my pants. Scary stuff lol

    yes, I have.

    I cant run straight for the life of me and caught one nike over the other, needless to say I broke a shoe, the belt put a hole in my lulu's and my pale skin was a dark purple, not to mention my pride.

    another time I managed to catch myself in lunge position, after I was done the guy next to me asked if its hard to do lunges on the treadmill. :laugh: sometimes ninja skills are nice :)

    Never fallen...but it's not unusual for me to stumble a bit when I am adjusting the speed.
