Near death

So has anyone had any near death experiences that are interesting to talk about. I have a few. This one time my friends and I were in the woods and we had gotten pretty far in. Then we had gotten a little lost and we saw the train tracks. So instead of trying to get through the part of the woods we were at which was very thick with thorns and bushes and just impossible to get through  we decide to follow the tracks out because we knew where they lead. As were walking someone chuckles and says " I bet we get hit". About 10 minutes later somoene looks back and sees a train right behind us and we all run and jump into sewage. I have no idea how we didn't  hear it. It didn't make a sound. We were lucky that day.

Another time I was walking somewhere and not paying attention and as I was crossing the street this car was speeding down it. She must have figured I saw here but I didn't and she didn't stop and I got slammed with the mirror of her car. One more step and I would've been smeared all over the pavement.

Once when I was sledding my uncle had made a jump and was "here you try it first". So he hands be a tiny saucer ment for a 4 year old. As I'm going down I pick up some speed. I hit the jump only to notice he had built it right on a drop off so I'm about 6 feet in the air going pretty fast and I lost control in the air and flip and land on my neck. I couldn't move or breath for a bit. I have had bad neck problems ever since.

When I was younger I had gotten a disease that close the airway. I don't remember what it was called but by the time I got to the hospital my airway was nearly closed. They said I had died for a few seconds and then came back.

The rest aren't really worth talking about. So anyone else have an interesting experiences?

Ha I rememeber one about some people in the woods or something and he and his friends in a van.

Well, I was at a state park and there was this canyon dealy thingy and i was up on top of it. We spotted some pretty cool rocks and we went out to climb them. When I climbed one that was hanging over the edge, I slipped on some slime/algae and started sliding down the rock. I barely caught myself about 3-4 feet from the edge. It was about a 60-70ft drop i'd say so I would've been a real hassle to clean up.

Ya kinda...Well I was riding my ATV through my woods following behind my friends ryan and patrick. Well I came around a corner and stupid cut it too close to the inside and my right tire caught the site of a tree causing me to twist the handle bars to the left while flying over them. Well after do a complete flip and twist I landed on my ass against a tree with my legs up on the air and guess what was coming right for me....yep the atv and it crashed right into m legs, luckilly somehow I managed to accidently hit the kill switch with my left hand causing th atv to slow down bfore it hit me but the big thing i the end was if that tree hadn't been there  I would have fallen off a cliff 40 feet down and had the atv land smack dab on top of me probably kill me. I did sprain my wrist but other than that I was just a lil shooken up in the end

Nope, Never.

Yeah about a year ago my family went climbing on a small part of the grand canyon (awsome place) and i was about 10m away top from the of this big ledge where everything was hooked up and i saw a rope that connects to you fall down the side of me .At first i thought it was a joke but then i realised it was mine my heart went mad (it already was going really fast) i didnt move until i had another rope thrown down to me i had to tie it in myself.After that it makes you realise how much your life means to you.My parents sued the company and we got around £18000 for it which is in an savings account until im 18.Well worth it though

You all heard about that CO2 tank that unscrewed from the valve and killed that woman right? Same thing happened to me when I was unscrewing a 20oz from my friends gun. The valve started detaching from the tank and I didn't notice. My friend saw it and pointed it out as I was about to finish unthreading it. It had a couple more turns on it before it would have came completely off. It was heading straight for my balls.

I was in a relatively bad car accident a couple months ago. Had me in a cain. I wrenched my knee on something i think. My knee still hurts sometimes.

Its called Anaphylaxis.  Its not a disease, its a result of an allergy.

Never had a near death experience.
