Walking down the steet one day, chatting to a friend, and didn't see a guy closing one of those big cafe umbrellas...
He just managed to time it so that one of the spokes was just at my eye hieght as I walked across...
Without even realising it, as soon as it touched my eye, I sidestepped and fired a pak + chun sau up the line of the spoke... just like someone had attacked me...
Was fairly amusing
