Everything Offends Me
I was driving, and almost got into an accident when something occurred to me. The way I understand our eyesight to work is that light is projected through the hole thingie in our eyes and is received by nerves inside the eye, which the brain processes into what we see.
That means it can't possibly be realtime. The delay must be so miniscule to almost never matter, but there must be times where something goes wrong...
Is it plausible for the eyes to see something as being a miss, only to have it hit? For example, a car accident, a baseball to the face, being punched, etc.?
