Lol I like the leverage one. Reminded me of a loosely related story.
I broke the handle off on a shovel trying to get a stump out, pretty much bouncing on the end of it until it snapped and I face planted into dirt. Dad came out, saw I was covered in muck and all he said was “Only idiots break shovels. And I’ve broken quite a few”
