Yep I lost a solar panel from a rogue sheet of OSB, might have been the whole array if my head hadn't been in the way first, medic! In another OSB sheet incident a good friend flew off the new mobile home roof after picking up a sheet and facing into the wind with it, if it'd been behind him he could have let go. 

 

All good fun, my other job is health and safety at work advisor ;)
