Okay, everyone has had an "oops" or a "lol" or even a "What the heck" moment while playing the piano. Here are a couple of mine.

I was playing "Dance of the tumblers" one day and was playing a bit harder than usual. As I was coming to this one section, there was a giant "bang!" from somewhere. I stop. I was like freaked 'cause I thought it was a gunshot. I also thought that a piece of furiture had fell behind the piano. But it wasn't that. So I open the lid and found out I broke a piano string! I guess I didn't realize my own strength. oops... *trumpet fail theme*

Another moment: You know those times in a piece of music where, there is a soft section but then all of a sudden, it goes loud...yeah. I was playing a Beethoven piece. It was his famous Sonata with variations. As I was coming to the end, there was a soft part. This was at piano class by the way. Anyway, mom was just organizing some papers and listening and my piano teacher was following the notes. I come to the last three notes. The first two are pianissamo and the last chord is fortissimo (you know where this is going). So I bang out the last chord and it scares the crap outta mom and my piano teacher. Almost gave them a heart attack! lol

What are some of those moments you've had while playing the piano?
