A golf ball that flew into a shop narrowly missed the owner sitting at the counter in eastern China.

Video filmed in the city of Jinhua in Zhejiang Province on November 15 shows a golf ball suddenly flying into a shop after being run over by a car driving past.

The golf ball was seen flying over the shop owner Chen’s head and hitting the wall behind him.

In another video, Chen picked up the golf ball and a hole was seen on the wall.

Chen said the wall is around 8 metres away from the road outside and the wall is thick. So the impact force of the golf ball was strong.

Luckily, Chen’s head was not hit by the ball and he was not injured.

11月15日12时30分许，浙江金华骆家塘老街，一商户门店内墙壁被高尔夫球砸出一个坑。监控显示，一辆车辆从店门口经过后发出声响，一高尔夫球快速弹射进店内，从坐在吧台的男子头边擦过，砸中墙壁。事发时店铺经营者陈先生坐在收银台内，被桌台挡住，高尔夫球从他的头顶越过。陈先生称，外面马路到店铺内墙上有7、8米远，店内墙壁很厚，要用锤子砸才能砸出坑，而且可见球体撞击力度很大：“如果砸到头肯定出血”，所幸只是从自己头边擦了过去，有惊无险。
