Various methods:
1. Spill coke on the floppy.
2. Attach a large (>5HP) electric motor in the next outlet. Turn the motor
on and off rapidly while reading the disk drive.
3. Use one of those old 20mb disk drives from the early days of the AT.
4. Tap on the drive case with a hammer while it's reading.
5. Wrap a spark plug wire around the cable leading to the disk drive.
Turn on your car.
6. Expose your computer to one of those virus programs.
7. Operate the computer during a thunderstorm.
