    I almost got hit by a tram (like a train, but on the roads and not as fast), it missed my face by a few cm

    I was electrocuted (sp) when I was 4, stuck some car keys in a plug socket and you know the rest. Luckily I had rubber slippers on and they saved my life, otherwise i'd have being a goner.

    Flew across the room a few feet which was pretty cool though.

    I was a commercial salmon fisherman out of Kodiak, Ak. we were pulling in our nets as uaual when a line snapped and shot me off the boat like an arrow out of a bow. When I hit, The water was ice cold, my muscles cramped up instantly to the point I could barely keep my head out of the water, What seemed like forever was just a few minutes. Thanks to the cool heads of my shipmates they had me out of the water in about two minutes, and got me to where i could warm up again.

    I didn't know it at the time but when I was skiing in Italy I accidently went off the course to dodge somebody else and through some trees and apparantly my instructor said that I nearly ended up throwing myself off the edge of the cliff and killing myself!!

    I landed a big jump at the end of it which I was proud of but then this moment was made very sour as my instructor was very angry!!

    A big piece of metal fell down from a building right in front of me...it was in construction :( I was shocked to see how lucky I was:)

    I choked once so bad I thought that was the end....I was lucky ...again

    Cars almost running into me...a few times...when I was walking and biking...and not because of me:(I guess I have a lucky star ;)

    When i was like 6 or something near 6 i was learning how to ride my bike and i hit my left handle on a bar flicking me on the road. A car swerved a bit just nipping my helmet.

    I remember looking up and seeing the wheels go pass my head.

    Thats all i can think of.

    i was playing football with some mates, and then we played catchy kiss, the school bell rang and we walked towards the fire doors. As i was walking i was showing off with the football and had 1 hand on the door, a girl ran up to the door and slammed it shut! i was still keeping the football up with my feet not knowing that my fingers mean while had just been cut off!

    my fingers are all funny now :( but i know can tell my left from right.

    A few years ago I lived in an extremely bad neighborhood where people got shot on a regular
    basis, this neighborhood was only bad in the summertime. Many times I had to deal with street
    gangs who were trying to pick fights with me, I was always able to walk away without escalating
    the situation.

    I once thought it smart to walk home from a friends house at 2 AM. I had walked there before, its just about 4 miles in distance and really didn't think much about doing it again.

    As I'm about 1 mile from my house, I'm walking against traffic. I see headlights and make every attempt to get out of the road (no sidewalks) but I'm on a small bridge that spans about 30 feet over a creek. In a flash, the SUV speeds by probably at around 50 miles per hour, and the mirror of the car nearly grazes my arm. I've never been so close to death in my entire life. Needless to say, I won't make that walk ever again.

    I was robbed by an 87 year old woman, she hit me with her cane and I gave her my wallet as I urinated myself.
