One of the fun yet time-consuming things you can do in Palworld is capture Pals to create your army of fluffy creatures that will work for you, and today one player accidentally took capturing to a whole new level by trapping an NPC with a wild throw.
The spectacular accident happened after one Palworld player returned from being AFK, misclicked, threw a Pal Sphere they were holding, and caught one of the NPCs walking around their camp. Essentially what happened was the accidentally-thrown Pal Sphere hit one of the straw beds, bounced off the nearby crafting table (which in hindsight seems perfectly placed), and then struck the NPC in question, which is how they were able to capture him.
