Have you ever had to recover corrupted footage?

I recently came back from a day of filming to find that one of my files was corrupted. For some strange reason my card wrote two files for the same video (even though I did not have that function on) and I was able to get my footage off my card and on to a timeline. I'm interested in knowing if anyone has any methods of recovering corrupt footage or salvaging a corrupt card as I feel like I may run into this problem again later on and I won't be so lucky.
Love

Since I'm not a videographer, I don't unfortunately.  However, I'll tag some friends who may have some tips or methods that could help (or at the very least may have experience with this). 

Megan Lang   Alex Winter   Will Schultz   Zach Basner Lindsey Schmidt Do any of you folks have experience with this and have some methods for saving footage?

Oh boy, glad you were lucky with that time! I haven't had any good experiences unfortunately. sometimes if a card won't read i've used a different card reader and was able to salvage it, but that's about it for me!
