A bit trickier.
I was repotting on the garden table.
My wife had put the top of a wooden garden bench there, that she painted.
While I was repotting, it suddenly started to rain, heavily.
I put the pot and tree aside... not on the table but on that bench top that was on the table, but sticking out.
When I rushed inside, the plank tilted, fought gravity for a moment, and lost.
Fortunately the tree only lost one or two twigs, no major damage.
