We don't have a 5 yarder in Canada - just 15. However, if an offender goes to stiffarm someone, I think it's quite possible for a 5 yarder to occur. You could easily have two opponents running quickly, their balance in question trying to initiate or avoid contact, and with the chaos involved in a tackle and a high stiffarm, an inadvertant FM occurs by team A.
