Video: Archer Forgets to Open Glass Door Before Shooting

File this under, “I hate it when that happens.”

This archer decided to practice shooting his bow while standing inside his glass-enclosed porch. He came to full draw, took careful aim, and–WHOOPS! Blasted a big hole in the sliding glass door, which he had forgotten to open.

He speaks a foreign language afterward, but it’s not hard to guess what he’s saying, and a young boy comes into view to see the damage.

Perfect learning opportunity: “See son, this is how you’re NOT supposed to do it.”

Also: Did he hit the target?

This probably wouldn’t have happened at my house, as our glass is usually not that clean…
