WORLDWIDE — Have you ever walked down a city street with your friends on a fun night out and suddenly found yourself walking straight into a pole because you weren't watching where you walking or were otherwise distracted?

I know I have, and toddlers everywhere around the world come to the painful realization every day that these mishaps are part of their reality, too.

Kids just aren't the best at paying attention to their surroundings or watching where they are walking or running.

This video suggests that children may also have a hard time distinguishing between a clear window and an open space that could be traveled through.

Don't worry, though. Four-year-old Oskar Llewellyn of Barnsley, England, wasn't injured in this boy-meets-glass collision, according to the video description.

I know my mom always warned me to watch where I was going whenever she caught me running carelessly through the house chasing my little brother — now I see why. Like this little guy, I seem to also have an unmatched knack for slamming straight into the glass sliding doors often found at gas stations and grocery stores.
