Not Me But...

Apparently if you left a box of fanfold paper on the floor in front of certain IBM kit (probably the same controller) it was quite possible for an operator to head-butt the reload button whilst picking up the paper. As the operator realised what they'd done before standing up they were left in that position whilst an orderly shutdown was arranged.
