Never had an accident that was very threatening, but I almost took a full dunk at the ditch once. I was in water up to between my waist and chest. My jig was snagged in the rocks only about 10 feet away from me. I was leaning back with all my weight when it popped free. I was falling backwards when I was able to reach back with my left hand and brace myself on the bottom. Of course standing in water that deep, I still got quite a dunking and a lot of water poured into my waders. My digi cam got completely ruined but atleast I didn't go for a swim! That was the coldest walk back to my car ever.
