i used to work at sun micro, and while i was there i think i made on of the worst mistakes of my life.
i was logged into our main nfs server, the one that server all the home directories for the entire campus, and i thought i was logged into my machine at home, and typed killall, thinking i was on my machine at home, well for any of you that have ever used solaris killall is a bit different, long story short i killed init on the server bringing down the whole thing hard, and had to run accross campus badge in hand and start the server back up, got it back up in about 1-2 min's, i'm lucky it was after hours or would of probably lost my job, being as over 1000 ppl use that machine. all there was was a bunch of iPlanet slackies there playing counter-strike, so no real harm came of it. but it was a scary situation.
