The only one I can think of is a guy in Fiji many years ago who stopped feathered the props on an Aztruck and tried to get them horizontal. Didnt get it right - Aztruck on its back, cabin crushed, pilot dead!
That's why you don't feather the props for a wheels up. If they dig in they don't bend as easy and you stand avery good chance of going on your back.
