Have You Ever Almost Died? - Or at least had a "close one"?

jmb2006
i nearly died quite in the past 7 months actually, i cant remember exactly when this happened but anyway..
Me and my friend were Twaging (not going to) school and just outside our school is a massive wood. Loads of places to hide n stuff. Anyway we like going to the center of the woods where the warden lives, just behind his house is a train track where a train goes by 5-6 times a day.
1 day me and my friend thought it would be wicked to jump on and get a free ride, oh how wrong could be be.
It was going past slowly so me and my friend jumped onto the back of it and stayed on for a bit, but then it sped up like hell, i mean it was going really fast. Me and my friend didn't think it would slow down so guess what, we jumped off, my friend scrapped and nearly cut the side of his chest open and i nearly broke my arm and banged my head, had a massive cut and a bump on the side of my head. I swear i would never do it again for all the money in the world. You'd think that would strongly discourage someone would you? my friend (not me) wants to go on again. Hes *#&@$" up in his head.

I was about 10 years old and I was with some of my cousins and uncles riding an ATV. I was riding in the back holding on to one of my older cousins. He accelerated and I flew back and fell off the bike. He then hit reverse and ran over my stomach with the back left tire!

I nearly drowned a few times when I was young, one of those times I was by myself. But those were minor compared to a car wreck I was in in 1988 (senior in H.S.)

One night after a party broke up, my friend wanted to show me how well his Mazda RX-7 handled, so we headed to a local stretch of road that had lots of nice curves to test his car's performance - (sounded like a good idea at the time) wink.gif

Anyway, before we even made it to our destination my friend started passing 3 & 4 cars a time @ 90mph down a 35mph street. Without goining on-and-on with the details, I'll just say he lost control, spun it, flipped it, went air-born, and dropped it in a drainage ditch. It was totaled & completly unrecognizable. Amazingly We both walked away, but I shouldn't have even tried - because I crushed one vertabrae and fractured two others. I'm lucky I didn't damage my spinal cord by standing up and walking accross the street. I was in the hospital for only 3 weeks, and I nearly failed my senior year due to being laid up for a month and half.

My friend was banged up, but nothing broken.
A year later he totaled another car on the same stretch of road.

I've almost drowned, I was playing around in a stream in a local path, I wondered too deep into the water and my footing suddenly disappeared and next thing I knew, I was being dragged away by the stream current and my dad jumping in the water to get me. I was only seven at the time though. biggrin.gif

Well I can admit that I almost died when the doctors took my tonsils out. They cut something wrongs somewhere and I was told that I lost a lot of blood because of it and then my heart stopped ... you know what you do when doctors talk? Tune out and its like "Blah Blah Blah Blah"

But I am alive and kicking and wont let anyone operate on me again for any reason what-so-ever :|

Thank god Im still alive :| Im having too much fun with my boyfriend tongue.gif tongue.gif

Hey....a lot of sad stories here. I never have such experiences. But I would just like to tell my friend's story. She had such an experience before. I was so sad when I heard about it.

When I first met this girl, I was wondering why her eyes always looked so sad. Even when she smiled or laughed, her eyes didn't seem to smile or laugh with her.
Then....I found out......

When she was about 10, she went on holiday with her family. Beautiful beaches.
She went to play in the sea with her family quite a few times, until this happened...

She went to swim in the sea. She went further and further from the beach. IT was at low tide, so she walked down and down. There was something strange about/or in the sea...that made her almost drown. She tried....to keep her head up from water....Then it was her father who came and caught her. She was sitting on her father's shoulder now. For a long long time, she was holding her father's head tight. She didn't see or notice anythin because she was so shocked. She was just still crying.

It was not until a while later...when someone else came to them...when they all realised...her father had died when he had been helping her. She was sitting on the shoulder of her dead father...
