Again, the sound of nothing comes to mind. When you turn the key and nothing happens... ...luckily it's a 5 speed, you can pop it. Unfortunately you parked right next to a 100 foot sheer cliff drop and nobody has jumper cables. :doh:
or
It's Christmas Eve, the relatives are visiting. You and your cousin take out Grandma's minivan to get egg nog and make a detour for a HUGE parking lot puddle. You get halfway through and the water is swooshing and all of a sudden... nothing. Stuck in the middle with water up to the door handles. That's how I learned to turn a wrench and what the terms "hydrolock" and "to throw a rod" meant. Still keep the bottom half of the connecting rod on my desk as a paperwieght. :explosion
