Here's one my brother relayed to me. He's an electrical engineer at Delphi. He had some of his newbie engineers working on a project that was using larger motors. Seems they wanted to find the exact start up torque of the 20 HP motor they were using as they thought it was faulty/weak. When he walked up on them one was holding in his HANDS, an automotive torque wrench attached to the end of the shaft of the motor. The other was getting ready to throw the switch! That would have been REAL ugly.
