This is an old video from 70's but still has a WOW factor .

A reporter is doing a story and a low flying Cub flies by and hits the man
in the head with a LOUD thump ! The man survives and the Cub/L4/PA11
wing breaks the spar . Check midway in the video and the reporter is
holding the broken spar . Amazing the man didn't get killed .

The first video shows the man hit :

The second video shows the reporter holding the broken piece of wing spar :
