I quit wearing my wedding band at work after it hung on exposed bolt threads as I was climbing down a vertical conveyance support structure. Near the bottom I let go and dropped the last foot or two to the ground. Lucky for me my feet touched the ground before I ran out of arm length. Wasn't near as bad as it could have been but still hurt and cost me a some blood and a little skin.

mn near ripped my finger out by the root when my ring got hooked on the floor grate latch on a KC-135 crew entry door. I was in kind of a hurry to get out of the airplane, good thing I had a firm grip on the ladder with my right hand. Haven't worn a ring since.
