For every possibility we can imagine, there are uncountable many others that we cannot.
We once had a fairly decent floor lamp with a base formed of sheet metal. The cord came out from underneath it. We had it on plush carpet, so the cord was in casual contact with the underside edge of the metal: it had feet, but these were sunk into the carpet.
One day, my wife was vacuuming the carpet. When the vacuum cleaner touched the lamp base, the vibration caused the metal edge to act like a saw and cut the cord insulation, with spectacular results. No one harmed, but it certainly got her attention.
