Ever had a near to death experience?, Does your life flash before your eyes... Options

[alivenwell]

Cycling on the road today, raining and all, stopped by a cross road and the woman opposite me didn't seem to notice me crossing the road. She ran her 4X4 Landrover right into me, made me go flying 10 meters before skidding another 5 meters on the wet ground. As I heard the 4X4 engine and glimpsing the incoming fog light to my right, I seemd to recall my life flashing past me, it felt too wierd, got up after like 5 minutes to find my bike pretty much manngled by her 4X4 and my arms unable to move. The rain pattering on my face, my eyes dimmed and the wet ground felt like blood pouring from my head. Lucky I got taken to the hospital, and lucky my helmet saved me. Have you had any experiences when you thought that you would die?

i got a scary one.

i went boating at this big-ass lake with my dad, my sister, and my godfather about 2 years ago.

and my dad and my godfather started swimming away, and my sister stayed on the boat, so i decided to go in the water too.

i was close to the boat, when, all-of-a-sudden, i felt something pull me under and my first reaction was like "WTF!" so i started struggling and i managed to grab on to the edge of the boat--but it was so big i couldn't climb on. and my sister saw me struggling and started screaming at my dad and godfather and they started swimming towards me (but they were like 300m away).

and i was like "this is just like in those movies--like jaws or whatever" cuz i had NO IDEA what was pulling me in.

and i could barely hold on cuz it jerked me all the way underwater and the struggling didn't work. and just when i thought i couldn't take it anymore--and i felt like maybe this was it for me--i felt release.

and i suddenly wasn't being pulled under anymore.

and when i got up on the boat, a piece of a fishing net was stuck onto my pants.

apparently a big-ass fishing net almost drowned me cuz it had caught me by the foot.

i guess i just wasn't meant to die that day.

but i guess i know what it feels like to be a fish.

sucks for them.
