I did..Well,I was on a church retreat(or something similar to that) and we were hiking.I slipped off the edge, and almost fell into this really steep cliff-like thing and on the bottom is like a lot of poison ivy and poison oak.Well,luckily I held on to-hmm?I think it was a branch or the hard surface part of the cliff-like thing.Well, anywyas..people spotted me and thankfully helped me up.The reason i didn't die was God was with me on the retreat.And well...if you don't know who God (jesusChrist) is you best might do some research :)

Once in Hong Kong, when I was about...8? I was going up the stairs that went down to the public washroom in this little plaza thing below a hotel, and this guy pops out of nowhere and grabs me and tries to drag me to this car. Then he hears my mom calling me, lets me go, and leaves.

Which doesn't really mean I would die, but...yeah. It was scary. I guess that's the closest I've been to a big danger...

a few times:

once when i was about 9, me and my dad were having a bike race in our apartment complex... i was going super fast when all of a sudden this caar pulled out of nowhere and almot hit me. i fell off my bike but got scratches everywhere. i was l l <-- that close to being tire mush >.<

also another time, around november of last year, me and my friends were standing in line outside of the movie theatre buyng tickets, when all of a sudden some scary black dude wearing all dark clothes honked his horn REALLY LOUD. i turned around and he did the "come here" motion with his finger. i pointed to myself and said "me?" and he nodded. then i got scared and grabbed my friend and ran inside the theatre. then he drove off, thankfully. not excactly near death experience, but if he would have gotten me i would have been SO dead.

those were both scary moments.

Yes. I won't go into one of them. The other time I was swimming in a nearby river and the current picked up, I was swept under a large dock (it was actually floating on the water- not above). If the current were the tiniest bit slower, I would not have made it out of the other side. It wasn't your traditional long, thin dock. It was relatively short and rather wide.

Almost drowned. Almost got ran over by retarded taxi driver. He made a wide ass Uturn on a street your not allowed too. Car freakin tapped my leg before it came to a full stop. I took my bat and whacked one of his headlights before i walked away. Some idiot tried to mug me when i was coming home from school. Lol it looked like it was some kind of gang intiation. His peoples was in the same cart but on the other end watching. Came up to me and demanded money and my ipod. At first i couldnt hear him. So he asked again. I said kiss my ass. He pulled out a knife on me :O But it doesnt look like he knows how to use one. His hands was shaking like crazy. Heh dumb bastards tried to mug me at the wrong time. I bought time by pretending to get my money. Train came to a stop. Punched in his gut before I ran out. Of course they didnt follow. 145th ST is cop city.

The reason why everyone should have a boyfriend/girlfriend wink.gif

Ha ha, lets see.

Well one time, I was swimming out on the beach having a fun tima and all, when suddenly this surfer guy smacked me in the head. I was knocked unconscience and I was going under the water. Thankfully my friend was swimming with me at that time. She saw what had happened to me and dragged me to shore. After that, she kick the surfer guy in the jewels before we left the beach.
But yeah, it was a very scary moment.

yeah when i was 9 i was in guatemala i was riding the horses on my dads ranch and the horse went crazy and ran out into the dirt road and there was a truck coming and it ran me into the truck and some part of the truck [ i dont know which ] impaled [ if yu dont kno what that means it means something went THROUGH my leg ] my leg and i was still on the horse being driven down by the truck attatched to my leg. when i finally released i fell and the horse trampled on me a bit before dragging me about 10 feet down the dirty rocky road, kosz in guatemala theyre are no paved roads . only in the big citys.
i have a huge deep ugly scar on my leg where i think it part of the bumper went through.


on aug 23, 2001 i was walking with my boyfriend george to the park and a car came by and started shootin` out and 2 of the bullets hit george, an i dont kno how i wasnt hit but he passed away right there in the street.

also in guatemala when i was 9 we went to this pool place that stimulates waves from like this machine in the water, and i am a very short child i was like 4'6 when i was 9 so the water was really deep and we were in the deepest end and the waves were getting bigger and i went under and i suck at holding my breath i can only last like 45 strained seconds so i was hella struggling in the water kickiing to get back up then my mom saw me started screaming and a guard went in after me and everyone started at me o_0

in the phillipines me and my cousins were at this river. and there was a waterfall and we were sitting on the rocks around it, and i got off and slipped on the moss of the rock and the current which was so f**king strong pulled me and i was tryna grab onto anythin and everything and i fell over the waterfall and the rocks cut my thighs legs arm back face and a buggy got in my palm and the part the hand where the thumb is turned light ashy blue. my cousin jumped in after me and about half a mile down the river he got me.

Yes, on several occasions. About a year ago I almost drowned. Last month I almost died of electrocution from frayed wires of an amplifier. I can't remember the rest.

Well, I was in a really bad car accident about a year ago. Sadly, I wasn't wearing my seat belt, and I had almost gone through the windshield, if it weren't for the air bag deploying. I was pretty beat up from the hit; bruises all over, stiff neck, and an arm that felt as if though it had been broken, that it was so badly bruised.

I also was hit by a car, while walking into school, three years ago. I was badly injured. Chipped four of my front teeth, permenant damage to my knee, and scrapes all over my body after I fell off his car. The funny part, as if it was funny, was that he had just blew through a stop sign, at the circular drive where you drop the kids off to go into school, so he wasn't going that fast, yet he did all this damage to me.

Also, when I was younger then 5 (not sure what age), my mom and I were going to go swimming, so she took me with her to answer the phone, but I walked quietly away from her, to go into the pool, without my floats on, and I ended up falling into the pool and almost drowned. She had to give me CPR.. She never really told me this story until maybe a year or so ago. lol.. And also, I almost choked to death when I swallowed a penny.

The closest I've ever come to death? Let's see... I was at my state's Grand Canyons looking over a lookout fence. The view was fantastic. Suddenly a small chunk of rock that I was on top of breaks. It wasn't big, but it was enough to make me slip. I slid right under the bars and came close to falling off. Heh, thank God that I grabbed onto the bars...

No, I never did, but i did meet this amazing girl from kosovo. she grew up there when it was still a war zone. she told me that when she was a little girl she was walking home across a field. she didn't know it, but 2 enemy groups where hiding in that field, and starting shooting at eachother, and she was caught in the crossfire. she made it out ok, but she said that a few years later she was caught in a horrible house fire that her cousin saved her from.

hearing ppl's stories from war countries really make you appreciate what you have.

a few times actually
my sister left me in the backyard when I was 4 and I fell into the pool and nearly drowned but she pulled me out and did CPR
when I was 10 I fell of a jet ski (in the ocean) into the tide, and I remember being held underwater from a huge wave and I couldnt breathe or swim up or anything, then it slowly turned black, luckily my sister swam down and got me and the did CPR once we were on shore
(hm, I guess water is bad luck for me though I love swimming...thank god for my older sis)
o and if not being born counts then that too, I was weird and laid on my breathing cord and couldn't breathe, yea so born purple and then they had to do CPR...

I was tubing at this lake one day and the boat was dragging me slowly. ok well a tube and boat looks kinda like this 0>------|||||>. So the tube fell forward and i was stuck in between the rope and then tueb with my head submerged and water was gushing into my face. Luckily i somehow pulled myself out. My spotter wasn't watching me and I could have died =[.
Also my friend and I were walking to my house from the park and this man in a purple truck starts following us. Like he drove down the street and turned around following us up the street but this man that I know came out of his house and stopped the evil purple truck man.

Before I was born. My umbilical cord was wrapped around my neck twice. My heart rate dropped to near zero. They had to give my mom a cesaerean section a month before my due date.

Yes a couple of years ago in a double hold down wave when I was on vacation and the life guard at our resort didn't even see it because he was too busy talking to someone. It was horrible I could feel my body being pushed into the sand over and over and then right when I had a chance to get some air another wave came up behind me and knocked me down.. if it wasn't for that little bit of air that I had taken I would of died.. mellow.gif

mm, when I was really little our family was in india. they don't have the best transportation system there and we were on this rickety carriage thing. my mom's sari got caught on the wheel and I was in her lap and we fell off it. my mom was protecting me of course but I have this really long scar which is now fading a bit on my thigh.

hmm... no i dont think there was a topic about this. this is actually my first time hearing it...

hmm.. yeah i almost die.... but good thing the doctors hurried up and kept helping me even though there was 99% chance that i could live or not... when i was first born.. something bad happened to me...and the doctors thought i only had 2 days to live...but my dad he went to his church and tell everyone to pray about me.. so they prayed and prayed..and after like 2 days, i didnt die... the doctors found out that i was okay and well.... my mom didnt know because they didnt want my mom to know.. cause you know they'll get upset...and i cant believe my mom still doesnt know about it, she thinks that's a joke... o yeah not just me, but my mom too..she was gona die too..but i guess God saved our lives...without HIM, i wouldnt be here living.

I think I was around 6 or 7 and I was at the pool at the YMCA. And I went to far and ended up in the deep end. I started drowning and I kept yelling and the stupid lifeguard didnt even notice me -_-. Finally this girl saw me and brought me back to the shallow end of the pool.

me and a camp went hiking, about 100+? feet up in the mountains, the trails were narrow, and we were carrying heavy bags and sleeping bags. i slipped and fell, but thankfully, my friend grabbed me before i did.
then the other time when i was swimming in the ocean for the first time. i'm normally a good swimmer, but the waves were like no match for me. i was dragged underwater, and i couldn't get up...until that same friend ^ up there saved me. i was with the same camp. :|

I was at a pool and my stupid sister pulled me when I told her to stop pulling me into the deep end. I was only like.. 4'6 at that time! And she pulled me into the 5 feet deep end pinch.gif I slipped and fell underwater. Keep in mind that I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SWIM. Yea it was like jumping up and kicking and stuff and ifnally got out. Eugh I was so dizzy and I felt like throwing up. I'm still mad at her for that.

Ive been In a carwreck but luckily the other car hit in the back passenger side and not the front. I don't know if this really counts but in REM, which is the dreaming stage of sleep, your muscle movements are restrained. Sometimes when I try to wake up from a bad dream or try to wake up period I can't move a muscle and my body feels like its vibrating, almost like I'm going to die or something. Luckily I haven't died yet, but it happens frequently.

I did..Well,I was on a church retreat(or something similar to that) and we were hiking.I slipped off the edge, and almost fell into this really steep cliff-like thing and on the bottom is like a lot of poison ivy and poison oak.Well,luckily I held on to-hmm?I think it was a branch or the hard surface part of the cliff-like thing.Well, anywyas..people spotted me and thankfully helped me up.The reason i didn't die was God was with me on the retreat.And well...if you don't know who God (jesusChrist) is you best might do some research :)

what is with christians and the whole jesus christ thing? I mean, I know, he was themessanger of god and...his son? hmm, I think so, lol, I'm not an expert...it's not liek I ahve anytihng against religions, I except them all, evyeroen has their own beliefs, but I still find christianity very strange in teh way they bassically say jesus christ IS god. but...he's not, he's hte son of god...every thing is aobut jesus christ like "omg, I love jesus christ." "chrsitmas is aobut jesus christ" "I live for jesus christ" "jesus christ is my savouir" so on....what about god?!? jeez! show some respect here!

.P.S. dont' take this too personally...realyl don't, I have lots of friends who are christians but since I don't kno any of you ppl on createblog I thought it wouldn't do to much harm...sorry if I offended anyone sad.gif ...err, acutlaly I do know one person, but I'm sure sh'ell forgive me for my lack of faith wink.gif lol

EDIT

err, in reply to the actual topic tongue.gif no, I have never been in a near death situation...I don' tihnk...I've fallen over on my bike a couple times, run into an electric fence etc. but nothing really dangerous. although one time I fell off my bike I could have been killed if I wasn't wearing my helmet...which I ALWAYS do...unfortunatly some of my freinds think they are ABOVE helmets..like really, I'm all for good looks an stuff, but wouldn't you rather wear a helmet than be dead?!?!? they jsut dont' get it..sooooooo stupid...really, I'm ebarrised to be a teenager seriusly, some are jsut so stupid it drives me nuts _dry.gif anyway,...right, ya, I've never been in a life death situation thank god al mighty biggrin.gif

in stockton i made the mistake of being sassy and started cussing out these 4 white girls on bikes who thought they were cool and supposedly claimed nortenas and they thought they could push me and my girls around so i fought back and they didn't expect it and one of the females was strappin` so we ran our asses to a house , i jumped over a freakin` car lol. well over the corner of the hood and we got away.

Once in Hong Kong, when I was about...8? I was going up the stairs that went down to the public washroom in this little plaza thing below a hotel, and this guy pops out of nowhere and grabs me and tries to drag me to this car. Then he hears my mom calling me, lets me go, and leaves.

Which doesn't really mean I would die, but...yeah. It was scary. I guess that's the closest I've been to a big danger...

I almost died three times. Now that I think of it, it might have been four. Let's see.
1) I had the umbilacle(sp?) cord around my throat
2) I was in a really bad car accident. I should have gotten out with more than a fractured leg.
3) I was in a pool, on a cruise. I was like...8 and couldn't swim. I was in the shallow end and then the ship moved or whatever and I lost my grip. I was sent to the deepest end (which was like 12 ft but maybe it was cause I was small lol) and I literally thought, "This is how I'm going to die" Then this guy stuck his thumb in the water(guess he was testing it or something) and pulled me out. He so saved my life.
4 (possibly)) I was walking up Stone Mountain with my grade and it had rained like the day before or something. Anyway, I slipped and if my principal wasn't there and grabbed on to me, I'm pretty sure I would've gone over the edge. Glad they have fences up there now. ^-^

God must really have a plan for me because I'm still alive. Live life to the fullest!

*edit*

Now that I think of it. I've almost got run over by a motocyle in England(the difference in the streets are confusing! lol), almost got run over in Singapore...um...different streets lol. And almost got run over by a taxi in the states cause I thought I was in Australia still LOL

I almost drowned in our own swimming pool, because my hair got caught in the ladder thing and held me underwater. Dad said that it looked like I was just holding my breath or something, so no one was worried until I basically ripped my hair out and got loose.
Again, I almost drowned at Shipwreck Water Park. Again, my hair got caught, only this time it got caught in the filter near the bottom. Again, no one knew anything was wrong until I got loose.

Moral of the story: Either cut your hair or tie it up when you go swimming. I do the latter.
Also could have very easily died in a really bad car wreck I was in when I was little.

Yeah, i was born with CYSTIC FIBROSIS so it didn't seem that i wud live that long... and if i did i wusn't be able to run or walk much... but i took that comment and shoved it somewhere where i can't say on a clean website like this.

Let's just say that I shudn't even be talking right now becos my lungs r so weak (because of the Cystic Fibrosis). I was oxygen once to help my lungs, i had oxygen for about a week. It's really bad... I really shudn't be here right now.
