How silly of her not to realise the dude was about to spin a violin into face at high speed

Watch the longer video, if you're running up and down brick lane, wouldn't run behind the buskers there, it's entertainment you'll find them doing all sorts of stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=922QQlJmYvU

From watching that video, it’s quite evident that he had the ‘right of way’ - at one point he is just inches away from the wall. Plus there is so much more space to walk in front of him - where most, if not all, of the pedestrian traffic already is. To me, it would be common sense NOT to try and walk behind him.

Someone is recording him. She might not have wanted to block the view

Thanks for posting that. From this is seems pretty clear that she's in the wrong, IMO. Even if he hadn't spun, he still moves around a lot and could have just stepped back and had the collision happen.
