I had a near miss one time I'm going to share:
Dad sent me to an auction to buy a White 435 disk chisel- around this area, they are kinda hard to come by. We looked at this unit at the farmers once, but it was in the weeds--seemed to look nice, so we decided on our top dollar for auction day. Day comes, and I wait and wait. We finally are coming up on the unit so I get into position on the back side of the unit. Just then the guy beside me told another guy "look at that!" low and behold the tube that the axle arms are welded onto is just about split in two! Bidding happens, sells under the price we were willing to go (of course I didnt buy it) and the new owner feels like the got a heck of a deal. That guy beside me took him behind the unit....and a slap to his forehead is the last thing I saw as I walked away. Lucky day for me...
