The innate cussedness of inanimate objects. My production computers were completely reliable until I left the room during a render with an immovable deadline.
My husband can never find anything that drops. Says the floor & rug are black holes. Since things tend to bounce or roll, I can usually locate the item. Unless of course it rolled under the fridge.
My Dad has Parkensons, and I have a condition that causes me to drop things. When he was feeling better my Dad would say, “Just throw it on the floor, it’s going to end up there anyway!”
I and my co-workers used to call those dang things "J C rings " . JC rings took various shapes but everyone would cry "J C where da heii did that go "!
That is SO TRUE !!! I dropped a small lock washer, then a small flat washer in my shop last night and they just vanished into that other world we can’t see. I just try to keep lots of extra spare parts and such to replace the inevitable.

Perhaps he should’ve sat with his back facing the fridge?

I have found that if I drop a pill, even if I see which direction it bounces, I’ll never find it.
