supposed to be bad luck for some reason
I don't walk over them because an old friend of mine (sadly deceased) used to push me so I didn't when I was about to walk over them, and it is a small way to remember him.

it's possible.
not the most pleasant of stories, but a little while before he died he'd fallen out of his loft while drunk and broken his shoulder quite badly.

A few weeks later it seemed that while drunk, rather than walk round to the front door of his house he'd tried to climb over the garden wall at the back, failed due to his broken shoulder and was found lying in the road some 4 hours later. Later died of blood poisoning.
