I found an old box brownie in a charity shop when I was in college, at the height of my interest in medium format. I was so excited that I'd found another camera I could have some fun with.
I'd gone out a couple times with it and it worked perfectly, mostly test shots and fairly simple street photography.
Then I managed to take a trip to Berlin, I loved the idea of photographing the Brandenburg gate and a few other historic landmarks in black and white on my glorified pin-hole camera.
I filled the roll, wound it up, left it in the camera and got back home.
I then completely forgot about developing the roll until about 3 years later when I was in university. I hadn't developed a roll of film myself for around the same amount of time at this point so I completely forgot to turn off the red light in the darkroom, processed the film and it was pure black.
Tldr : I'm stupid, forgot to turn light off when processing film
