How often has this happened to you and how do you tolerate it? I don't.

No one's tried it yet, but if someone uses my kick as a step stool then I'm pushing them off.
It does remind me of the time I watched a bass player try to launch himself off the top of the drummer's bass drum though. We could actually hear it crack from where we were standing. That was the last I ever saw of his attempted acrobatics.....he was remarkably reserved from then on.
It was a singer in my case. We all heard the cracking sound. It wasn't exactly happy fun time after that.

For some strange reason, this has got me thinking about death by wind chimes
...a slow, sweeping torture that starts at the top and gruelingly works its way down until the listener finally relinquishes their life rather than have to endure the further penetrating of the jingle-jangling.
...oh, wait, you said DEATH by wind chimes! Sheesh! I couldn't imagine what THAT would be like!
Shocker! Did it change the sound of the drum?
I accidentally dropped my drum key on the top side of my bass one day. It was only from about a distance of 7 or 8 inches, but it made a tiny little dent in my shell.
That totally freaked me out.
I don't know what I'd do if some smarmy singer put his foot on it.
I imagine that person would be hopping for a few days, however.

Call it a battle scar. If it was a Les Paul it would be seen as even more desirable now.
The next big thing. Already relic'd drumkits. They'll get a singer to step on every shell until it makes a crack sound and will intentionally tear chunks out of the finish.
People will be raving about their relic's Mike Portnoy and Dave Lombardo kits.
