Dangly bits (Dangling modifiers)

Having been tossed in the air, the boy caught the bottle.

I’m sure you can pick the problem here – it was the bottle being tossed in the air not the boy, but we get to have a giggle because ‘the boy’ is the first noun we read after the ‘modifying’ phrase. Happens a lot when the sentence begins with a modifier like this, which then ‘dangles’ disconnected from the noun it modifies because another noun is in the way. Or at least that’s how I think of it.
