I like to ask people about the strangest/largest/farthest/most unexpected/whatever they have experienced in their work. It shows genuine interest and lets people talk about what they know in a natural story format and since they are taking about something they have witnessed, they don't necessarily need to talk about themselves if they are not comfortable with that.
