Has a cable on a cable machine ever unraveled while you were working out?

When I was locked up in a mental institution we had a gym with one huge weight machine with a bunch of different attachments. While training arms one day, the cable snapped and unraveled. The chances against this happening are astronomical.

Had this happened to anyone else here? Maybe we can start a crew
If you’re born to the iron, you’ll know it the first time you lift!

Yep

Punched myself in the face and had a bloody mouth too
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."
