The real fools would play "chicken" with the plane, trying to become propellor-bait. Pilots in China during WWII had to deal with this behaviour all the time. The lower class Chinese believed that if they ran close enough ahead of the props of a rapidly moving aircraft, the props would chop up their personal demons, who would be following them.
