Being a reporter has some pros and cons: You get to cover some really cool events, but sometimes bad things happen to you.

And then there are the times you might get hit in the head by a flying skateboard.

Mike Amor, the U.S. correspondent for Australia's Channel 7, was covering an event at a skate park in L.A.

While doing his live report, a young man on a skateboard was doing a trick when he lost control of his board and it went flying, smacking Amor in the back of the head.

I just love the slow-motion version of the video. The people behind Amor are quite comical.
