Reminds me of an experience I had in the mid 80's...

The installation instructions asked for the user to insert disk 1, then when prompted to insert disk 2. It took me 3 hours to get the two floppies unwedged from the inside of that drive. The user had used a pliers to get them both in there. Needless to say, the floppies were destroyed, but the drive still worked.
