More interesting take offs and landings?

Hi all,
Was discussing a few of my more interesting flights with a mrs shalo and we were wondering what were some of your more interesting take offs or landings?
Mine is take off at JHB in a third world aircraft, hear a big bang at +/- 2500ft followed by several seconds of lost altitude..... thrust goes max and we then gained altitude normally. The pilot/CC never informed us of what had happened and we continued an uneventfull flight!!! That was 16 years ago and still remember the feeling like it was yesterday!!
Mrs shalo recons her worst is landing in Milan in heavy fog, couldn't see the RWY untill they were down on it.... she tells me that milan is interesting at the best of times with all the mountains around... but in fog!!!!

What are your fun flights then???
