		Yesterday I had to change my tripod to horizontal. With my tripod you have to twist the bottom-thing from the "stick" like 100 times before the head can come off to change it to horizontal.
 
 I was twisting and was so concentrated, looking at the bottom of the stick, I didn't realise the head was at the top... it fell right at my head....
 
 AUW!
 
 I'll never to that again. I'm positive.
 
 Warning: Keep your eyes on the head of your tripod when you wanna unscrew.

		If it helps, I almost whacked myself with my SB-600 attached to my tripod as a lightstand. The coiled cord is too heavy and WHOOP! Hit me on the wrist...

		Sorry about the bump, Hann!   For what its worth.... I always hold onto the head while I'm unscrewing the bottom thingy so that doesn't happen.  ;)
