Figured I'd let one of y'all share it.

This is a local event for me, and I actually have met the guy who got hit by the deer! (Small. Freaking. World!)

He's fine-ish, bumped and bruised. We assume the deer is fine as well, as it got up and ran away.

saw this on the news, or at least part of it. Couldnt watch it all, still a bit to familiar. Most animals will run off after something like this and later die while hiding.
Think I would have tried to ride the animal for a bit to scrub off some speed.:lol:

Yikes and second the comment about riding the deer to cushion the blow.

Skateboarder tackled by deer. No, deer tackled by skateboarder.

Still, it could have been worse.

Well, that appears to be part of their routine, not an accident.
