Ok two occasions I've seen divers get their masks kicked off their faces.
First and avoidable:
A cluster of amateur divers cramming around some poor creature.
One diver loses bouyancy and kicks the divers face.
Second is sometimes unavoidable.
Many divers doing a safety stop on a line
Diver slightly above the starts descending (unknowingly) and kicks the mask off the diver below.
This is one sometime unavoidable because if there's a current, you really want to be holding onto the line at the safety stop.
I carry a compact frameless, and shallow profile spare in my right shorts pocket.
Don't even know it's there.
