Your Nearest Death experience.
|
I came off my motorbike on a patch of oil and a lorry missed running over my head by about 2 cm. The poor lorry driver was white as a sheet when he emerged from his cab to see what was on the road.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid. Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis. 
I was a passenger on a plane about 2 weeks before the same plane was involved in the 911 crash. Still makes me think "what if..."
The meek shall inherit the Earth, the rest of us will fly to the stars.
Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it! 
(Non-combat) Put me down for a nearly-ruptured appendix.
(Combat) Controller swapped safe and target coordinates. Fast movers don't care, it's just "blurry green carpet" to them.  RE: Your Nearest Death experience.

Rip current.
...and 4: slid off the road on a patch of sand and down an embankment to a stream. I jumped off my motorcycle when I went over the edge. As I slid down the embankment (face down), I was wondering if I was now going to be run over by my own motorcycle. Fortunately the left foot peg and handlebar dug into the soil. It was still running after I got up, and some people who I had recently passed stopped to help me up the slope. I rode it home all bent up- the left side of the handle bars was bent to nearly facing me, but the clutch still worked. Tough to kill a Harley.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
I was in a motel in Cartagena once, "a while back". I was sitting on the bed and leaned over to get some smokes off a table. When I straightened up I heard a "pop" and a hole appeared in the floor in front of me. The cops told me that the guy in the room below me had tried to commit suicide and "missed".

Oh yeah there was time I had sex on a balcony and my boyfriend almost dropped me
