If you’re into hunting waterfowl, you're familiar with the sound of a large goose hitting the ground as it falls from the sky. Gravity, weight and physics at work – its a loud thud.
This hunter had a chance to see real physics in the works as this large goose land smack in his face.
Mojo TV facebook were filming these hunters getting ready to light up the sky as these gooses were flying by.
Everyone pretty much got a hit, especially the far left hunter.
As one of the kamikaze goose came in on a suicide hit right directly into this hunter.
That looked like it hurt, he’s gonna be sore! See the full Goose to the face footage here.
Williamsburg, VA – March 30, 1999 – Supermodel Fabio suffered a one-inch cut on his nose after a bird hit him while riding the new Apollo's Chariot roller coaster at Busch Gardens Williamsburg.
Fabio was attending the park's media event to help promote the new roller coaster. Unfortunately for the park, the timing could not have been worse.
As for the bird, he did not fair as well. According to one park guest a dead goose could be seen floating in the river below the drop where Fabio was supposedly hit.
I thought “goose down” was known for its softness.
Hey Jon, do you write this crap yourself, or does some other idiot at ‘Am Shooting Journal’ write it and you just post it?
Friend of mine some years back hit a wild turkey, “at speed” on his Ducati. Direct hit to the helmet. There was not time to react, and he knew he would have a broken neck...but the bird just ‘exploded’. Physics indeed! Coincidentally, this happened in Williamsburg. maybe Apollo’s Chariot isn’t fast enough :)
Buddy at work hit an owl one night. Took his side view mirror off, and left several feathers in its place.
A friend of mine hit a peahen in her Ford truck one morning out on a county road. The impact exploded the bird, damaged the hood, cracked the windshield, and eggs went everywhere.
Whoa..a turkey. Lucky guy. You wouldn’t have expected him to survive that. Must not’ve been a regulation Butterball turkey that hit him.
