Near Miss: Girl Shoots Arrow at a Beer on the Ground, and It Ricochets Right Past Her Head

Try to open a beer with your bow and arrow without checking what's behind it first, and you may get impaled.

This young woman was apparently trying a trick shot to open her cold drink when it almost cost her dearly. This doesn't happen often, but with today's high-quality, high-powered gear, almost anything is possible.

Once she drew back, there was no changing course, it's just that she almost ended up in a hospital (or worse). Safe shooting has never looked more appropriate than it does after watching this.

Here's one young woman who learned a lesson that she will never forget! This is exactly what you should NOT do with your bow.

That happened so fast that you almost couldn't see it... almost. After watching that arrow whiz past her head at optimum velocity, you just had to cringe.

Keep your eye on your target, but always know what is beyond, and never shoot at the ground from such close range.

Thank goodness it ended well!
