I nearly died in a motorbike crash. (They did manage to get most of my teeth back in though...)
I nearly died during a bombing campaign whilst I was sat on top of a bunker.
I was nearly run over by a car driving through a red light.
I nearly had my throat cut and was held hostage for over 30 minutes with a knife to my neck.

this is a bit off topic, but its neat
i wuz playing soccer,and a girl about 8 yards away from me teeed up. she hit it straight at my head. luckily i turned, but it still nailed me in the lower left part of my skull. after i fell, i felt this really neat tingling sensation all up my right arm. i am assuming that the ball hit the part of my brain that controls my arm, and sent some weird nerve pulses to it.
Only 2 for me. Ridign my bike around the swimming pool as a wee lad and fell in. Couldn't swim so tried to cycle out. (Doesn't work btw).Nanny came and helped me out.
Other one was 2 years ago. Cycling to work on a long stretch and going full speed when a guy swings a scaffolding pole across the road from behind a truck. No idea how I managed to duck in time, and momentarily I discovered a hidden ability to swear.
Couple incidents in heavy currents in the sea otherwise.

Hehe, were any of these guys gay, or presidents of the USA ?
Originally posted by StrayJayHey, I am not exactly intelligent. I have plenty of other stories I could share that were usually caused by my own stupidity. Examples: Not knowing how to swim and walking into a pool, having really really long nails and trying to touch my eye, and most recently calling Adam an idiot. As for the last one, I should not get in trouble for being honest. I am proof that stupidity is not a crime since I do not have a life sentence.
You do know how to end a conversation, Remora91... 🙂
When i was 20 I went on holiday with all the lads to the south coast of Spain. We hired Jet ski's one day and in our drunken wisdom joked about jet skiiing to Africa...... I mean how far can it be....... we lost sight of land, ran out of fuel and were caught in a 5metre swell. Eventually we were collected by the coastguard and lost our deposit to cover the expense.
Also had the pleasure of getting close enough to touch a 3metre Tiger Shark last summer. I was bobbing around on the surf board pointing out to sea waiting to catch a wave, and from behind the wee fella swam past me on the surface. Been close to sharks quiet a few times in my life but never a big tiger shark........
