I once did performance of Fiddler in which bottles and cups frequently fell into the pit. Nothing was done to address the problem until a large proportion of the orchestra refused to go into the pit, at which point, things that were "not possible" suddenly became achievable.
Of course the most notorious local accident (in Manchester) was a professional performance of Romeo and Juliet in which a sword fell into the pit. If I remember correctly (not always a safe assumption) a cello gave its life for that performance.
