Had a Canon AE-1 shutter curtain jam right as a client walked in

I was in the middle of a CLA in my home shop when it just froze up. Anyone know a solid method for freeing those without stressing the ribbon cables?

Ever had a shutter jam just as you were about to take the perfect shot?

My old Nikon F3 locked up on me at my sister's wedding years ago. I used to think mechanical cameras were bulletproof, but that moment changed my mind completely.
