Comments (19) Add to My Stories Men become accident prone at the sight of a beautiful woman, scientists said yesterday.

Research shows that just looking at an attractive female makes them more likely to indulge in 'physical risk-taking' which results in embarrassing failure or even injury.

The change in behaviour is triggered by a surge in the male hormone testosterone which makes men 'throw caution to the wind', according to psychologists at the University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia.

 The results were found by researchers who observed the behaviour of male skateboarders as they were watched by attractive women
They made the finding after a studying young male skateboarders.

In tests, the team used both male and female observers to watch how the men performed their manoeuvres at a local park.
Results revealed that they 'took more risks when they were observed by an attractive female than when they were observed by a male.
