No shit about the chairs. At school we still have the standard blue plastic bitch chairs, I basically crush it. Near death experiences... Hmmm. Ive not gotten close. Concusion from wrestling in 7' surf. Fell off a 12' foot cliff and tryed to grab a vine for support. Oh yea! I have had one, kinda, (not really), in Hawaii we went horseback riding along the cliffs, we stopped halfway through to rest, I walked up to the edge and leaned onto a tree for support, tree fell over the cliff and I fell about 8 feet onto an ATV path, right below, one only about 5' wide... Man I felt like a jackass... Everyone in the group rushed to the edge, expecting to see me shrink out of sight as I fell to my death...
oh oh oh i have two lol first one was when i was 8 or 9 and me and my dad went caming near sudbury. ON. so we decide to hike to the closest lake to catch some fish to eat. so where just walking and my dad spots this cool looking cave contraption so hes like lets go in here. so im down wit it and i go in the cave we were just a pout to get out when my ankle got stuck in a wedge when i was climbing out. scary thing was right beside the platform my leg was on was a good 35 foot drop of pure rock. so i had one usable leg and the other hanging over the edge of this drop when i got my foot unstuck with the help of my dad i lost balance and fell right down the drop. LUCKILY i hit a small platfor that ws about 8 feet down so it still knocked me out. i didnt have crazy visions like everyone says you get but i remember bieng knocked out cold but i was still sort of aware of what was happening on my ambulace trip to the hospital. second hapened last winter when i went to horshoe valley to snowboard and i didnt put the saftey bar down and fell out a good 4 seconds to early ot to bad, a good 10 foot drop but i hit the hill with speed thats for sure
I was wading around in the ocean last april, only going up to about my waist because I can barely swim. Well, my girlfriend kinda lured me out a little deeper for a kiss, and then runs back to the shore to be a tease. I'm trying to catch her, and suddenly this huge wave hits me and i'm in neck deep and the water is pulling me back hard. I lost my footing and expended most of my energy trying to swim back, but I just went even deeper. According to the people on shore I got about 200 yards out, past any waves. So I'm just floating there on my back because I don't know what to do, and I try meditating and it was actually really relaxing and comfortable. Eventually the riptide stopped, and the waves started pushing me back. Now I had to swim hard, but every few seconds a wave would hit me and push me to the ground. I seriously bled from hitting the bottom so hard. I made it back alive though, and very happy at that. I wasn't even red from the sunburn I had, I was purple.
maybe not a near death experience but it could have been. I was between maybe 6 and 8 years old and my dad had his old (1986) peugeot in the drive, it had been there unused for about a year...well it was unusable really. We were just waiting for a guy to come with a digger thing to take it to the place to be crushed. On the day that it was being taken away my dad was at work and my mum had just walked to the shop to get something for lunch. Anyway me having a very active imagination and capitolising on the opportunity of being home alone for a bit decided to play around in the car, it was pretty fucked so i didnt need keys to get in. I was pretending the boot was like a cave or something, i dont really remember. But i was in the boot and i closed the boot door by accident (it was an old car with no boot window so it was total darkness with no way of getting out without being let out). I was screaming for help for a while and crying but my mum wasnt back yet, then i heard the sound of a tractor. My old house was surrounded by feilds so i didnt think anything of it but then i heard it turn into the drive. It was a family friend with the digger who was told just to pick up the car whenever he could, didnt matter if anyone was home or not. He was hard of hearing and didnt turn off the engine so it was pretty noisy and he didnt hear me shouting. He tied ropes around the car and the scoop of the digger (it was a big scoop thing but a small vehicle) The car was pulled up using the neumatic thing and the ropes crushed the roof down as it was lifted, the boot got a bit crushed aswell and i was seriously shitting bricks, all i could do was curl into a ball and cry. Really fucking lucky though, My mum came before he was about to leave so he turned off the engine to have a cup of tea or whatever and thats how i was found. I probably wouldnt have died but shit, i thought i was. I still miss that car though
haha oh right the trunk of the car i spose it would be over there...the space to put shit in in the back of a car
Sooo, I've been walking in quite a bit of pain since this weekend, and I just thought it was from the new boots i'm wearing in, but today, I decided to shave my legs, which I haven't done in 3 days, and apparently, I haven't looked at my leg either in three days cause this is what it looks like: AWESOME. Hahaha, it really fucking hurts, especially the bruise with the cuts on it. But I'm alive so it's all good
when i was about 6 i was running around in my half brother's basement and ran into a table saw(that was off) and split the corner of my forehead open requiring 15 stitches. but im not sure if it was near death or not..it was fucking scary though
