I have a ton of drill stories, none of which have happy endings. Closest I ever came to breaking something on me was driving a lag bolt through a band board
No torque clutch, no speed control (stupid, I know), the bolt bound up, and the drill spun out of my hands, trigger lock got engaged, it wrapped up the drill cord and about 30 foot of extension cord on itself before it yanked the cord out of the receptacle.
Have also had a Roto Hammer with a masonry bit on it catch the side of a piece of rebar, flip me upside down and pin me to the ground.
I am not superstitious, however when it comes to drills, I believe that there is a Murphy.
One of my first jobs, I had to drill through a block wall to run some comcables. I checked the other side of the wall for obstructions, all appears good. I start drilling, of course it is quite loud. About halfway through the hole, I hear a faint sound over the drill. I power down the drill only to realize the building's fire alarm system is going off. Withdrawing the drill bit from the hole, and shining the light inside of it, I see a whole bunch of mangled copper. I hit a pull station PVC conduit in the block.
