For example, I once saw a man throw his hat down in anger. He didn't stomp on it which was kind of a let down.

Standing in a convenience store when a car comes crashing through the front, and broken glass flies all around all the customers including me. None of us got hurt, but it was scary AF. Car was being driven by an elderly person who confused the brake pedal with the gas pedal.

I had something similar happen to me. The steering knuckle on my first car broke and took out the brakes in the process. I hit the brakes and emergency brake as hard as I could but my vehicle turned sharply to the left and drove into a pool store.

However, there was a car between me and The pool store, so I hit the car and the car went into the pool store.

That was some scary fucking shit, fortunately no one was hurt and the damages were fairly minor.

You were just playing billiards but with cars.

Oh, you meant the other kind of pool...
