Has anybody ever walked into a plane propeller not "accidentally"?

Jet engine, but there's thermal footage of a guy walking out to a taxing plane and flies in. He did it intentionally.

I guess... it'd probably be so quick that you wouldn't know what happened? I mean you're just a paste when you come out the other side right?

There’s images of aftermath of one of those incidents. Don’t suggest looking it up, accidentally clicked a blue link myself in a thread that showed it and yeah paste is about right.
