I'm going to preface this next story with the fact that I did not see this first hand, however it is much easier to tell pretending I was there...
One morning at the gym (here we call it the Java Gym because we're cheezy that way), I was on the treadmill and two women walked up together. One woman bends down to tie her shoelace and the other says, "I'll start this for you," meaning she will start the treadmill for her. The other woman hears neither her friend nor the treadmill and steps on it as if it were still. Needless to say she goes flying backward and lands flat on her face.
My thoughts are (a) who starts a treadmill at any speed above 3 mph? (b) wtf is her friend doing starting the treadmill for her? (c) am I a horrible person for thinking this is funny?
Unfortunately, the "abs" area of the gym is right behind the treadmills and I can't help but wonder if someone's feet will come flying toward my face one of these days...

How does someone not notice that a treadmill is on when it's going fast enough to send them flying backwards? That's like stepping on one of those People Mover conveyor belt things at the airport and falling down because you didn't know it was moving.
