Not sure if it counts though. I was in ski school, they taught us how to put our skis on then told us to wait on a green carpet until everyone was ready. At this point some kid came out of nowhere and crashed into me. He was fine but I broke my arm. To make it worse we had to cancel my birthday party three days later.
