I did something like this nearly 15 years ago at a job. I was trying to use something like MySQL Workbench to export the database and generate a map of connections through foreign keys. Apparently I selected some option backwards and it deleted out the entire production database.
Luckily for me I'd been working on some other things related to it and had taken a backup not long prior, but it was pretty nerve wracking to hear the CTO/CEO nearly running through the halls to find out what had happened.
Pretty sure they never implemented more stringent access controls at that company, either.
