Nylon versus Dyneema slings
Shock loading either can cause them to break. Both have unique properties and one is more suitable than the other in specific situations.

Oopsa Daisy! Using your daisy chain appropriately.
Dynamic falls on a Daisy Chain can be fatal. Even slipping of a belay stance, while anchored by your Daisy Chain could mean "goodbye".

Having said that instead of a Daisy Chain I personally use a Blue Water version of this - http://www.grivel.com/products/rock/accessories/56-Daisy+chain
Each loop is rated to 22 KN rather than the 3 KN of a traditional Daisy Chain.
