Yes at a karate recital when I was 12.
My hot-shot instructor (think of that ass on Napoleon Dynamite) was doing spinning back kicks full speed an inch away from my face so all the parents could go oooooohhhh & aaaaaaaaahh...
Then he missed and hit me right in the head. I was big (fat) for my age, which saved me.
This was in the days way before 1 800 Lawyer
I stayed in the sport, but with a more 'mature' instructor.
