Yep, just like the question reads. Answer personally for yourself. It doesn't matter how big or small it may be.

View Full Version : What's the closest you have come to dying? FlintstoneV 12-04-2005, 01:45 AM Yep, just like the question reads. Answer personally for yourself. It doesn't matter how big or small it may be. Korean&Proud 12-04-2005, 01:56 AM Last day of drivers ed believe it or not. I was driving down the highway and some moron crossed 4 lanes over and came head on into my lane. the lady (driving instructor - instructor!?!?) next to me went into the fetal position and stomped the break. well the guy wasnt changing lanes and had decided on mine so I stomped the gas (She must have gotten off of the break thank god) and I broke it sideways. his mirror crossed over my hood and than he clipped a telephone pole went over an embankment and jumped 3 driveways all without front wheels. I was drivign a tiny little car and he was driving a trailblazer LTZ at about 65 mph. I wasnt really scared (I tend to be more goal oriented and had done all kinds of ES Training for this stuff) but I pulled off the road, and went to see if he was alright. called 911, and pulled the debris off of the road, than did traffic until the cops/paramedics arrived. he ended up with a broken collar bone and charged with a DUI. haha i passed that class with flying colors... but I still say I should have got that class for free though.

(never gonna believe this, never shared it online before)I had a stroke from liver and kidney failure when I was 21, hence the reason I dont drink or party at my age not to mention all the heroin when I was a teen deathknell3000 12-04-2005, 03:25 AM No close calls yet but hopefully soon..................:was T-Bar 12-04-2005, 09:31 AM Safety line broke while doing construction. I was 9 floors up hanging out a window trying to fix a poorly seated window seal at the time. Fell one floor and just barely grabbed a window ledge with my finger tips the only open window in the entire building. Got stabbed with a knife in a fight when I was 18. Knife didn't go in deep as I caught his arm in time. Nothing vital hit. He ended up with a broken nose & broken cheek. Got into a fight with a guy who outweighed me by more than 100 pounds and was easily a foot taller. Turned out he had a rap sheet a mile long and was wanted in three different states for attempted murder, assault, assault and batter on a police officer. I took out his knee and he dropped like a rock. Someone called the police who arrived seconds after I dropped him. I thought I was fucked. After sitting in the back of the cop car for almost a half an hour they ended up letting me go and thanking me for taking the guy off the street. I'm sure there are more. I used to spend a lot of time not getting killed. MARTYUSA 12-04-2005, 09:45 AM Driving to work one saturday morning. Flying down 495 in my scoobydoo outback and out of no-where this bright red semi was coming right at me in my lane. I have no clue how in the hell he missed me, but he did manage to take my mirror with him. Come to fine out the driver of the truck was having a heart attack and died before crashing into the barrier infront of the train station. The police said he hit the barrier about 1 mile up the road. He was traveling at about 100 mph from their calculations. They have since put up a guard rail between the north and south bound lanes. That Monday morning I increased my life insurance another 500k.

SR Trimmer01 12-04-2005, 11:38 AM Had a guy come out of an armed robbery with a handgun. I broke cover and kicked him in the stomach as hard as I could and he dropped like a sack of shit. Adrenaline 12-04-2005, 12:23 PM I was passing about 10 cars who were all lined up close together on a 2 lane highway when i ran out of room before this bridge.. as i went over the bridge in the oncoming lane, you could literally not see over it so i didnt know what if anything was there.. i just missed a semi as i managed to swerve back into the right lane. bodyhard 12-04-2005, 01:12 PM Due to the fact that I have been in gangs, prison, drugs, alchohol, and live in the South Bronx in NYC all my life there are too many to mentioned. And even if Idid mentioned some, most here would not believe me anyway.

And even if Idid mentioned some, most here would not believe me anyway. Yeah I don't beleive anything you said after the word Due. LOL :boink bodyhard 12-04-2005, 01:38 PM LOL My bad man should have read Do, no turning back now T-Bar 12-04-2005, 01:40 PM LOL My bad man Hey bro just so you know KP said that you and all your prison buddies were pussies and there's no way anybody could ever rape his ass. I'm just passing on the message. Steel Reserves 12-04-2005, 01:44 PM Lol Sr Trimmer01 12-04-2005, 02:23 PM T-Bar always the shit disturber lol billy732 12-04-2005, 04:15 PM Well this one time at band camp.... Just kidding. Once on my motorcycle I got cut off by a lady who was missing her turn and it had just finished a slight misting rain so the streets were slippery as hell. When she hit the brakes I laid my bike down and slid. When I stopped sliding the Chevy Silverado behind me di not stop sliding. I rolled out of the way just in time to see(and feel) his tires slide by me while giving me a nice little back rub. Another time I was used as sort of a hostage during the robbery of a bar. The dude came in and told everybody to hit the ground and they did but I didn't cause I though it was a joke so I just laughed at him. He came up and jammed the gun in my face and said "Bitch I'll bust your fuckin brain!" to which I laughed even harder and told him to "Quit fuckin around" then after about 5 seconds of lookin around at everyone on the floor and down the barrel of that gun I said "Oh, my bad, you're serious." Then I turned to the female bartender and coached her through the whole thing while he kept the gun at the back of my head. It was very surreal. Whenever he said something she would just stare at him like a deer in the headlights. I had to have her look at me and not him and whenever he would say something I had to tell her every motion to make "Just take the bag and turn around and open the register and put the money in the bag and turn back around and give it to him, but move slowly. Relax, we're gonna get through this with no problem. Don't look at him, look at me. Don't listen to him, listen to me." It was crazy, but I'm not sure how close I was to dying. I think if he wanted to kill me he woulda done it while I was laughing in his face. T-Bar 12-04-2005, 05:36 PM So really you were the one telling her to get the money? And you were the one telling her to put it in the bag? And you were the one that paid cash for that nice new sports car last year right? This is a board for bodybuilders and weightlifters Billy. Not for bank and bar robbers! If you're a liar and a thief I suggest you try another site called...oh wait, we don't mention CF's place any more. Never mind. Doug_N 12-05-2005, 10:57 AM Well when I was about 18 I was coming home from NYC on a 20ft boat. We'd do this like once a month. Get like 5 guys on the boat get all fucked up and go into the city and party all night. Well about 5 am we get in the boat to come home; the battery was dead. So we went into a parking lot and stole two batteries from two cars. So we get on our way and half way there we're running out of gas. We docked and found some gas. (again out of someones car) LOL We get on our way AGAIN we were about 1 mile from shore with 4-6ft swells. The dipshit driving started taking the swells head on. I told him go at them at an angle but he didnt listen. So first 1 wave swamps us; and we lose two of the four cylinders in the engine. Now there six inches of water in the boat and the bilge pump isnt working. Now I tell the guy driving head for shore we're not gonna make it. !0 sec later we get hit by another wave and thats it. The boat just capsizes. We all climbed onto the bottom; the water was about 45 degrees. One guy cant swim and keeps floating away everytime a wave hits. We have to keep going out and pulling him back. This lasted about 45 min till a passing fishing boat sees us and pulls us aboard. We all had hypertherma and got put on a Coast Gaurd boat. To this day I dont like boats. Tailyn 12-05-2005, 03:17 PM Wow I can only think of once really and it wasn't all that close of a call after reading these. I was driving my celica around an S curve a lot too fast, like every other day, but I caught the gravel in one spot and fishtailed a lot, awfully close to a steep ditch with my windows and moonroof wide open and no seatbelt. There was a car on the other curve coming toward me and they stopped at the far end of the curve they were on because they thought I was going over (they told me this when they came up to see if I blew a tire). I had to admit I was an idiot and just f'd up. A friend of mine died on that curve just a couple months ago. When I was 3 or 4 there were a bunch of us riding snowmobiles down the river. My mom and I were on a snowmobile together and she didn't see a small opening in the ice and we went under. They got us out pretty fast I guess. All I can remember is being pissed that my Mickey Mouse shirt got wet and I was cold. lol T-Bar 12-05-2005, 03:44 PM Can you post a recent picture of you wearing that wet mickey mouse shirt please Tailyn? boowaxwell 12-05-2005, 03:48 PM Well I have had a handgun pointed at me three times. Once during a robeery of a restaurant, I was operating the cashier. Once a drunk tried to shoot me at a party, I took his gun away and stomped on him. The third time was at an employee cafeteria and a woman tried to kill her boyfriend who was cheating on her. She fired 6 rounds over my head (I was hugging the floor for dear life) at her boyfriend. Only one hit him in the rear end. The police came and hauled her to jail and the shooting victim to the emergency room. He was back at work within two days (limping). billy732 12-05-2005, 04:07 PM So really you were the one telling her to get the money? And you were the one telling her to put it in the bag? And you were the one that paid cash for that nice new sports car last year right? Holy shit! I never really though of it like that. I think I robbed a bar.:eek: Doug_N 12-05-2005, 04:42 PM Can you post a recent picture of you wearing that wet mickey mouse shirt please Tailyn? And if you dont have a picture can you take one now? :boink :yeah wheelzdgh 12-05-2005, 05:04 PM Holy shit! I never really though of it like that. I think I robbed a bar.:eek: lmfao!!! bonezone 12-05-2005, 06:25 PM And if you dont have a picture can you take one now? :boink :yeah Wet and cold, too? As for me, 17 yo bitch dialing her cell phone doesn't realize that she's across the median. I swerve to avoid a head-on and she T-bones me. Knocks my axle completely from under my truck and flips me over. No seat belt and I crawl out without a scratch. My truck, utility trailer, and my riding mower I am taking to Sears for repair are all totaled. deathknell3000 12-05-2005, 07:32 PM As for me, 17 yo bitch dialing her cell phone doesn't realize that she's across the median.

That won't be hard considering it's below zero here right now. Korean&Proud 12-05-2005, 10:21 PM lmao, so than its convenient for yah tailyn! haha, and about those prison buddies. if they'd like to come out and get me thats fine. oh wait! they cant! hahahaha. oh shit, billybob gets out the tenth? I still live in TX with Bio, remember?! the addres is xxxx xxxxxx xxxxxxxxx K&P bonezone 12-05-2005, 10:52 PM Did she get what was coming to her? Left of center and careless and reckless citations from the state trooper. There were four in her car, all of which were unhurt as well. They ended up in a cornfield with their windshield almost totally in their front seat since my mower bounced off their glass (on it's way into near orbit lol). I guess we were all pretty lucky. FlintstoneV 12-05-2005, 11:07 PM I guess since I asked the question, I'll go ahead and tell my tales... These pale in comparison to most of your stories. 1) Was out deep sea fishing in a 33 Bertram. A storm came out of nowhere, lightning hit the boat, spun us around multiple times, and took off the tuna tower...with us on the flybridge. It was gone as quick as it came. 2) At a bonfire in high school, some a-holes decided to break into my car. I remember I was really pissed off and left hastily to go get my 9mm. (yes, I know, wanna be gangsta, but I wanted to prove a point) On the way to get it, I hit a curve way too fast, broke traction and began spinning. After 2 or 3 spins, somehow the car straightened out right at a place where the road and shoulder were level. I was able to continue in the same direction. I considered this a sign and just retired for the night. nextel81 12-06-2005, 03:16 PM I was heading home from work one day. I didn't take the drag radials off my car from the night before. I hit a puddle on the interstate going about 70. My car spun around and went backwards for about 150 yards. Then I spun in the median 3-4 times. Broke both rims on the right side as I hit the shoulder that went into the oncoming 4 lane interstate. |
