Are their any reliable accounts (or hell, even unreliable accounts) of someone catching sight of a tit and immediately keeling over, be it be from shock or getting covered with a mixture of breast milk and cream (a la Woody Allen’s _Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Sex But Were Afraid to Ask_? Heck, I’ll even take someone being impaled on a set of frozen ta-ta’s, or a tit falling off a statue and crushing someone. ---

I’m not all there in the boob department, but I was kerb crawled by a guy (a butt guy) I kept indicating that he should look ahead, but he couldn’t stop looking at me - until … he crashed into someones brand new (parked) motorbike! It just so happened that the motorbike owner was hosting a party of about 200 people on the basketball court … he tried to produce my butt as evidence that he hadn’t intentionally crashed the bike! Everyone including the bike owner luckily found it to be roll on the ground funny. ---

Nearest I can cite is a fictional example. It was a one-panel cartoon many years ago in, IIRC, Hustler magazine. It showed a mountain road with a sharp dropoff on one side, and on the other a billboard of a scantily clad large-breasted woman. The road curved sharply at that point, and we see a set of skid marks leading to a hole in the guard rail where someone failed to make the turn. ---
