I saw a youngish guy today on a fixie mincer sweeet trix bike (bruv cuz) catch his heel on the trick nuts he had on the back of said sweet fixie, and go flying face first with bike behind him into a bus lane. I did wait till I was sure he was ok before I allowed myself to truly relish the moment, and I would have had more sympathy, but A. he must have know the clearance between his heel and his nuts (heh) wasn't much, and B. he was mincing about the road in that slow weave-y way that drives me insane.
Speaking of comedy gold...
