Colleague leading a two-ship of Lynx was asked by Duxford to do a fly-past en-route. This happened (happens?) regularly.
He got a little carried away, and both aircraft tore down the active at about 20ft.
Next thing he heard was Duxford asking when/if he was going to do the fly-past.
Cambridge City, in the meantime, were screaming blue murder and diverting their traffic frantically...
He was an American on an exchange, he got a free visit to his embassy in London and narrowly avoided being recalled to the US. No sense of humour some people
