Yep, I've done it too.

Was running down the road, a squirrel ran out, he stopped and then ran right in front of and subsequently ended up underneath the Rustler.

He looked incredulous, and then ran off up a tree and kept a good eye on the truck for a while.

I ruined a hanger 9 twist .60 when a crow and it crossed paths, unfortunately there were no survivors.

My boss got his son a Rustler VXL. Since he's owned it, he's killed a few birds and hit the neighbors cat a couple of times. Not sure if they were all on purpose.

EDIT: I've hit my wife in the ankle before but that was because my front wheel come off and I couldn't steer away.

I hit my wife back in 2003 with a T-maxx 2.5. It was wide open and topped out in 2nd gear. I felt pretty bad about but she could watched alittle closer herself.

I got hit once when i was practicing, my truck broke in the middle of the track, and the marshall was 6 year old who didn't know what to do with it. my truck was dead in the middle of the course for over a minute, and the kid just stared at it.
anyways I had to go on the track and retrieve the truck, and as i was walking off the track (w/truck) I wasn't paying attention to other drivers and a 4x4 sct cameo off a double and hit my left shin... hard.

No, usually wear sandals.

I hit myself. I got distracted by a UFO while having a beer in my left hand while controlling with my right. Huh... can't think of anything out of the ordinary.
