I was buzzed by and F-18 once.

A few years back, I took the family to an air show because Colonel Chris Hatfield was flying an F-18 that year. The show was running late and we had to start heading back to the city just as Hatfield got out on to the runway. We were slowly walking back towards the parking lot hoping to see him take off and do some aerobatics. Sure enough, he got off the ground and flew about for a bit then took off towards the horizon and disappeared. We reached the parking lot and saw him coming back from a distance right towards us. He buzzed the parking lot, setting off many car alarms, and flew right over our heads nearly knocking the wind out of me! How exciting that was!
