When I was a Sophmore in highschool, I went to Jamaica on a mission trip with my youth group (not to preach, just to do good works). One day when we were there, we decided to go to some hot springs up in the mountains, far from any touristy areas. When we got there, there was this neat little system that the locals had set up where they had made a kind of shower out of some downed wood and a hot spring that was coming out of the side of a hill. Well I thought it would be fun to climb up the hill a bit and take a look around, but on my way up, I slipped on a wet rock and grabbed on to a peice of this shower to keep myself from falling. When I did this it caused the whole shower system to come crashing down and I also kicked out a large rock which almost fell on a native who was using the shower at the time. We were able to fix the shower no problem (it was pretty low tech) but I was so embarrassed it nearly ruined the rest of the trip for me.
