Anyone here nearly die in a freak accident

blu_sonic · 17-05-2006 03:58PM

now you won't belive this but:

I nearly died on mars right bear with me here. My stone age rocket landed but our suits weren't air tight, so, when my buddy jumpped down to the surface he died and i was choking I managed to close the rocket door and fly back to earth.

I was so angry I wiped out the entire advanced stone age race with my fury. Funny thing is Nostradamus predicted the whole thing, well that my buddies skull would be found on the 5th month in 2006 mad but true.

(or maybe i've read AH threads so much I've taken on them as my life)

About 3 years ago someone tried to murder me by stabbing.

Survival instinct is a great thing though and I was able to get the knife off them and subdue them until assistance arrived and I could get to a hospital. I'd lost a lot of blood by that stage and didn't actually go into shock until I was on a hospital bed in A&E.

Mother of God! How many times did he get you?

No, thank God! My little sister's had two near-misses while crossing the road, and that was frightening enough.

Munich, Germany

Was living there fore the summer and I cant remember the name of the main river running through it but we (me n friends)were in it floating down towards the city centre - but we came up to some rapids,everyone seemed to go through them no problem except me - I got dragged and tossed and turned and spat out the other side eventually...thought I was a goner and never got in that river again!

Just one near fatal car crash when I was about 4.

arctic lemur · 17-05-2006 05:29PM

Car accident head on collision with guy passing out on continuous white line on the opposite side of the road. He didnt pull in in time and hit us.

Nearly drowned in the railway bridge when i was 2.

Split my head open when i fell on the cardboard that they put down in the local shop to soak up wet floor. Skidded and my head smashed against the counter.

bull**** I find it hard to believe that after getting stabbed bad enough to warrent an ambulance journey to AE that you were physically able to subdue a perfectly healthy attacker and actually hold him there until the police came
:rolleyes:

was climbing onto a spike fence to see if i could get some height and slpipped, the part with the spike clipped my eye lid and cut it, but nearly went through my eye, kinda like impaling my head.

I done kinda the same thing:( There was a metal grate laying up on the fence and I thought it was better attached, so after getting someway up there, felt the grate coming loose. Then first I fell and then the grate came crashing on my head, ouchies.

When I was about 6, I went down one of the waterslide type things, but half way down the chute, for some reason, I spun around in the slide, and ended up going down backwards into the 12' deep pool. I can't swim, so I just went straight under. It was actually fairly surreal, as all I remember thinking was 'hey cool, I can see underwater!'. I was down on the bottom of the pool for a bit, before I was dragged out by the lifeguard.

Hit by a piano when I was 4... no broken bones!

I was stabbed once in the chest.

If I hadn't subdued them, then I'd have been stabbed again and I'd have been dead. If you haven't been in that sort of situation then you really can't comment on how strong the survival instinct is. I had to pin this person up against a wall for over 10 minutes before someone else came along, all the while knowing that I was losing a lot of blood.

I never said I got an ambulance either... I was stayed pretty calm about the whole affair, I got a lift to the hospital and walked into A&E on my own two feet. Luckily you don't have to have to wait when you have lots of blood pumping out of you and they rushed me inside... it was only then that I let go and my body went into shock.

Luckily none of my internal organs were ruptured, but having the surgeon stick his finger inside the wound to check was a very unpleasent experience.

At least I know I can handle myself fairly well in a critical situation though...

I've been in a few car crashes. In one case the arse of the car spun out and my mate lost control of the car for about 15 seconds, he eventually stopped it at the edge of a 150 - 200ft drop on the Kerry - Cork road. The two back wheels were out over the edge.

In another case I broke my back in a crash, if I was 5 inches taller I'd have been beheaded. I don't really want to go into that.

Diarmiud · 17-05-2006 06:44PM

I can only barely remember choking on a gobstopper or some large sweet or other when I was about three. Ive never had my face go so red since. If my parents werent there to slap me on the back...

When I was a kid I was flying down this hill near where I live on my BMX. The road was recently re-surfaced so there was a build up of gravel at the sides. I heard someone call me from behind so I looked back. When I looked forward again I realised the bike was gone and I was just flying through the air.

sorry but that sounds hilarious.

i was kayaking down a wier and capsized at the bottom. it was very shallow and the boat was on top of me so i was pressed against the bottom drowning in about a foot of white water. the boat floated out to the end of the wier and i was able to get out when it got deep again. needless to say the kayak needed some cleaning out afterwards

Jaysus, fair play, that really was defeating death there, the force is clearly strong in you!

It was completely unexpected as well. It was someone I've known all my life who stabbed me without warning while I was just sitting watching a DVD of Magnolia.

I can't remember what scene though.... it may have been a bit with Julianne Moore...

Did the piano say "Acme" on it by any chance?

Ah... I was trying to remember what that reminded me of...

It was in 'Who Framed Roger Rabit?'

I've had many a fit with a lawnmower according to my mates. that counts right?

Well anything from roadrunner too...

It wasn't acme but it was scary! Life in slow motion at four isn't something I want to experience again (not that I can anyway

)

hmmmmmm had a gun pointed at me when i was 10 and living in Israel. that was fun. the guy didnt have any intention to shoot me, was just doing it for a laugh, but was scary all the same!
