Have you ever had any close encounters with death?
 

If so, what happened?

Have you?

Nah. At least I don't recall anything of the sort. :/

Stood out on the middle of the road, was walking - my mate called me, and I turned around and their was a Double Decker bus literally coming right towards me.

I can't express enough how close it was, and the wanker driver had no intention of stopping - the deranged bastard.

But yeah, I narrowly escaped death there.

When I was a baby I was very ill as I was extremely premature and it looked as if I was going to die for a while but the doctors worked very hard to keep me alive and I've been fine :)

I was climbing across a Rocky wall once, when i was young, and i slipped and split my head open - was pretty horrendous

Something similar happened to me when i was in Italy. But it was a nun that pulled me back. The bus was going so fast it would have killed me. :o

The train 13 minutes after mine had some suicide train driver on.. To be honest I'm not sure if I would have already got off the train or if he crashed before my stop. It was like 8 years ago. I just tell people I was 13 minutes away to sound interesting. Is it working?

I was born with the umbilical cord wrapped around my neck and apparently I was blue :suspect: but that's all I can think of... had a heart defect until I was about 3 or 4 as well.

Yes ,when I gave birth !

I had meningitis and epiglottis as a baby and was critical for a long time but all good now. Glad I was too young to remember also.

I've had many hangovers where I've felt this way.

:laugh:

when i was about 10 me and my found this pop truck and it had like a little shelf thing on the back that was for stepping up into the back of the truck

so we waited until the driver got inside and jumped on and sat on the shelf thing and he started driving and it was fun we drove for like 2 minutes then he turned onto this road that leads to the motorway so i panicked and jumped off as it was moving and bounced (yes literally bounced) like 5 times down the road but i escaped with just a few cuts and bruises

my friend ended up fracturing his skull

My latest close call with death was about two years ago, I was almost knocked by a car.

not really near death but i was asked to go to a car outside my house when I lived in america

i ran inside and cried, i was well scared lolol
