This is a clear example of being in the wrong place at the wrong time...
A new video shared on social media shows how an honest mistake can have dire consequences.
Twitter was buzzing after a video of a woman being knocked out with a flying cricket bat emerged.
The video starts with a garbage collector practising his swing with a cricket bat he found in the trash.

At that same moment, a woman was getting out of her car, and as Murphy would have it, the bat slipped out of the man's hands and headed straight for the woman.
It hit her right on the head and knocked her out cold!
