3 times a lady:

1. Trying to onsight solo Day Tripper at Raetjen's Gap (Adelaide Hills). Fell off the surprisingly tricky bit at about 3m. A friend said he'd spot me. Landed on my back on small rocks. When I asked him where the spot was, he said he didn't think I was going to fall off! No major damage.
2. Another short (3m) one at The Lost Walls (Morialta). A cam popped out of a crack. One side of the crack was a detached block but it was the only chance of pro for a fair way and I think it slowed the fall down. Landed on my back on grass between nasty blocks. I've had two other big falls at The Lost Walls due to holds breaking, I don't rate the crag at all.
3. My best effort was a 10m head-first whipper off Missing Link. The story of that one is on a Chocky thread called Another Arapiles Accident.

I use belay loops with Gri-Gri's, but don't otherwise touch them.
