I remember when I was a kid, I left a bus, and the bus started moving, and I, not being intimidated by the bus moving very slowly (somewhere between 5 and 10 km/h), didn't move a safe distance away from the bus. I think the bus, due to the nature of its maneuverability, had its tail moving not in parallel to me but slightly towards me - so when it has "touched" (hit?) me, even though I thought it was just sliding in parallel, the force was so strong I made a full 360° turn - and I was a tall and chubby boy.
I ended up with no injury, not even a bruise as far as I can remember (who would count bruises as a kid), but definitely with an intuition to respect mass.
