What is the closest you've been dying?

its the current that kills

 

When I was young, I was in Florida in the pool swimming, and I didn't know that as you keep on going the pool will get deeper. I kept on walking, and I just drop down, I went from 4 ft to 10 ft, I was yelling, trying catch my breath, but was sinking and swallowing water(I also swallow a dead bug). I couldn't breath anymore so I went down, All I saw was black, no light or anything. Until my uncle dive in to save me.




And both of my parents was there and didnt do anything. PLus my father can swim.

 

IED attack 2004..

 

yes, It was during the fall of Fallujah.

During the Kuwait invasion, the US bombed the town of Fallujah 1991. I dont know much of ground troops there during the 91 war. But it seemed this town was waiting for us all those years, to give us a fight we would remember in 2004..

In Dec 04, I came home.

 

About 15 years ago I had some kind of brain infection. l lost 3 months of my life and had to learn walk, read, write, pretty much everything from scratch (couldn't even remember my name). Luckily I don't remember much about it ( except continually asking "what's my name again?) seemingly every day I was expected to die - but what the hell, here I am right as rain! Sorry to say though I didn't have any near death experience, see a light or think about changing my outlook on life. Once I recovered took a holiday in Tunisia and then carried on as normal.

 

It involves an air mattress and one of the biggest lakes in the world.


Long story short -- I had to go to the hospital for hypothermia when I was about... Seven years old.

 

oh my god how long were you out there?

 

I keep saying I want to get a fishing raft.. im so dumb, I have an air mattress.

 

Four hours. Just my cousin and I (who is two years older). After a few minutes, we were out of ear-shot with the shore, after an hour we couldn't see land anymore because the lake is so big.


Yeah, we were pretty close to dieing.

 

watch your hook!

 

flipped my dads subie trying to drift that bitch too hard thoughT Was my last few seconds they Were some badass seconds tho but my real last seconds in life are gna be way badder now make sure a dat

 

Was nearly struck by lightning when I was 7, got knocked back about 5 feet and knocked out.

Was hit by a late 80's model Lincoln Continental and thrown over the vehicle landing on my feet back in 1987

Was on a small twin engine beechcraft airplane that nearly crashed in 1998, the pilots had soiled themselves during the landing, passengers screaming to God and so forth,,, it was interesting but I'm done with flying.

Those were the most memorable.

The Loaded 357 in my face was memorable too but I really dont think there was much of a chance he was gonna pull the trigger, he was more pissed off at the Dominatrix Chick hiding behind me at the time.

Oh, and spun out across all 4 lanes of I-290 as I merged on with bald tires on a rainy night in my 92' Mustang with a race-modded transmission. Ended up in the gard rail facing oncoming traffic but amazingly enough there was only minor damage to the car as it happened during a break in traffic.

 

Gun pulled on me from 3 feet away with the guy mentioning my name and telling me "you've had it".

Crashed into a truck and trailer just a split second after the car that we were racing crashed thru it at over a hundred. Out of 4 in front seats--2 dead-one a veg for life---and me with some teeth knocked out.

Rolled two cars. Walked away.

Went to sleep on Highway 5 and cut across two lanes and ended up in the median. Lucky- there happened to be no traffic close to me. My trailer saved me from rolling.

Had abdominal aortic aneurism. Damn near bit the big one. Stent put in.

Replaced aorta from below heart to stent that was put in crotch area. 6/12 hours on the table on that one. It looks like a radiator hose. Big one averted once again.

And last ,but not least---I'm one lucky mother- dicker to even be sitting here---so other than my political rants---I'M A HAPPY MAN!!

Oh yeah--forgot--a guy turned left in front of me on my Triumph motorcycle--me- no helmet-no shirt-no shoes-and no sense. Hit the back bumper and did a nice flip instead of hittin' the body of the car. Big one lurking.

Still HAPPY!!

OOps--forgot pulminary embolism. That was a close one.

hahahaha---and I'm still roofing. I be a tough one.

 

One time me and two friends were running on the train tracks only because their was a bridge over a street and we didnt want to be seen so we started running. I was in the middle and my friend behind who was a fast motherfucker cut me off and i stumbled almost going into the third rail, if i did i cud have been electracuted beyond belief...LOL Got lucky.

 

WOW! So many of you have had really scary near death experiences and interesting ones.

I am gonna drink to everyone here! Cheers!

 

Gun in my mouth. But it was probably the best thing that ever happened to me.

 

I shocked the piss out of myself once at work. Bare wires were exposed in a cabinet in our cool bar (where we keep the syrups and cold ice cream toppings), and I had a jar of cherries with a metal lid that made contact with the two and ended up sending me flying back and knocking a slushy machine behind me about 3 feet back. All I remember is hearing a loud pop, everything going black, and hearing someone screaming bloody murder. That screaming was me. I was okay, it actually fixed some fucked up muscles I had in my shoulder and back, but it scared the ever-living shit out of me. I cried for like an hour afterwards. lol

 

there is another time..i posted it once on another forum but will never post about it again

 

you tease.
