The closest you ever came to death?

[PervedOut]

Mine are all pretty much driving related.

-T-boned a guy doing 50mph with no seatbelt on (walked away without a scratch, car was a total loss)

-Quit a job working at a gas station and the next day someone held the bitch up with a sawed-off shotgun


Yours, misc?

Stood on a buried command det IED for 8 hours, rolled over an old Anti-tank mine in a MATV that didn't go off, Mineswept multiple times in Afg, Almost hit a median dead on because some guy wouldn't let me over, missed a speeding truck by a couple inches when I was on foot etc. I've had quite a few run-ins.

Nearly hit from the side whilst cycling home from college once. The road had a 40mph speed limit, and the cars SHOULD have been stopped. I crossed two of the three lanes, and just before I reached the island in the centre of the road, a car blasted through the red light at 60mph~

Would've been sudden death, no doubt.

Held up by three punk drug dealers/thieves when I was thirteen or so with a few of my buddies. They were all carrying huge ass knives. I vaguely knew one of the guys, so appealed to his best side. Walked away very tenuously, though it was touch and go for a few minutes.

Had the schit beaten out of me at a local skatepark once, along with a few other guys. Twenty or so thugs with tree branches, bars, bats and other stuff just marched into the park, and before we knew out, everyone was getting beat down. Had cracked ribs, crazy bruising all over my face, neck, and back, and a fractured shin bone. It actually hurt a lot less than I remember. Managed to escape, though a couple of guys left their boards, bags and other schit there. We returned a few minutes later after they'd gone, and they'd taken everything. was 14 or so at the time, so i was still a bitch.

Crashed my motorcycle 2 years ago after someone pulled out in front of me. I swerved to avoid them and I went down. Lost use on my left arm for a couple weeks. It took about a year before I had full use of it again.

Fell down a **** load of concrete steps when I was younger, ended up with a fractured eye socket that was swollen shut and dark purple.

[Jackson4414]

Had a gun to my face when I got robbed a few years ago. The guy got extremely agitated when I gave him my cell phone which was one of those old $49 nokia phones, started waving the gun around like a maniac

[Jackson4414]

Another one was driving home from a 14 hour night shift, hadn't slept in 2 days, doing 80 on the freeway and just in a total dream state thinking about my ****ty life. Suddenly I snapped out of it to the see the morning traffic buildup right in front of me... slammed on the brakes and was still doing about 60 when I got to it, luckily the car skidded off the road onto a grass bank and I came to a harmless stop a few hundred yards down the road

[TappingTheZen]

Smashed in the back of the head with a bar after a night out and fractured my skull. Woke up in hospital not knowing wtf had happened.

[PervedOut]

Forgot about when I was a kid and bicycles. Was going through a crosswalk that I had the "WALK" signal for. Some ***got in a VW Rabbit blew the red light at like 60 mph and I sideswiped him. No injury or damage but was an eye-opener....

[Grapplekick]

20 years ago, t-boned by a car going about 60 MPH. Hit me on my passenger side. Had just let my best friend out of the car about 30 min. before. Airbag didn't inflate either. Window shattered and had to climb out of the passenger side window. No injuries. Car was completely wrecked.

[brrealtea]

I was doing pull ups, and I was at my limit. So I let go, but didn't know there was a bar in front of the pull up place. I jumped, tripped and fell on my face. Some ******* left a few plates next to the place so I nearly caved my head in.
