Maybe the funky headgear obstructed her vision.

A slight mishap took place last Friday on the Pittsburgh set of The Dark Knight Rises when Anne Hathaway's Catwoman stunt-double found herself careening into a camera!

So how bad was it?

Fortunately, no one was hurt during the accident, which occurred at Carnegie Mellon University, but the camera will no doubt need a little fixing. In footage obtained by TMZ, the stuntwoman can be seen coming down a flight of stairs on what appears to be the Caped Crusader's Batpod before accidently coming face-to-face with the lens catching all the action.

Meanwhile, the Catwoman costume itself is catching a lot of comments, many of which veer toward the negative, following its unveiling last week.

But Hathaway insists fans shouldn't be so quick to judge.

"What I am happy to say is, if you don't like the photo, you only see about a 10th of what that suit can do," she told MTV News. "And if you did like the photo, you have excellent taste."

Well played, Anne. Well played.
