TIKRA, INDIA — An Indian dancer actually took one in the chin for stopping in the middle of a wedding performance in northern India.
According to the Press Trust of India, the incident occurred on November 30 in Tikra village in the district of Chitrakoot in Uttar Pradesh.
Video footage shows the woman dancing for the wedding celebration when the music system develops a bit of a glitch.
And what do you do when you're dancing to music and the music stops? You pause and catch a breather.
Unfortunately, the 22-year-old dancer, identified only as Hina, caught a bullet to the face instead.
Two others in the audience were also lucky enough to sustain minor gunshot wounds as well.
According to police, Hina was taken to the hospital where she was treated for her injuries and was said to be out of danger.
Authorities say two men have been arrested for the boneheaded incident and are now facing attempted murder charges.
Hopefully the courts order these two knuckleheads to become dancers at weddings where everyone attending is strapped. That seems fair.
