[QUOTE="Zombie_Babies, post: 6274264, member: 6750039"] The worst car crash I was in was scary but I never thought I might die. I was parked on the side of the road in a park looking at some turkeys with my gf (she'd never seen them before). It's a pretty dead road but I looked in my rear view out of habit and noticed a car coming right at me at a high rate of speed. I had my hazards on by he didn't pay attention. As soon as I saw him he hit me. I was concerned but I didn't think I may die. Another time I was at this party and I had reason to believe that three rather large gentleman didn't appreciate the fact that I was 'friends' with the hostess. Much partying had gone on up to that point and I was in no shape to deal with anyone - let alone three big doods who couldn't care less about me - long before they even arrived. I remember sitting in a chair with that girl sitting basically in my lap and the three of them conversing quietly amongst themselves and looking our way. There was a pair of scissors on the table and I wondered if I could get to them before they got to me. Luckily I never had to find out. There was a lot of different stuff at play that night and even though I was pretty scared I wasn't afraid I was gonna get killed. It took years for me to be able to remember any of that evening without having an anxiety attack. The only time I can remember actually thinking I may die was a really silly thing and that, I think, has a lesson in it. All the close calls I had working at a factory - nearly lost an eye, about a millimeter away from severing every major vein and artery in my arm, etc - were nothing compared to this: I was home alone and eating some leftovers or something. I remember thinking the bite I was about to take may have been too big (steak? can't recall) but I went for it cuz I was complacent. I was home, people were usually home, it's just food, etc. Well, I tried to swallow and it got stuck. I couldn't breathe, couldn't swallow it and couldn't dislodge it. I panicked and really thought I may die like some kind of moron. Luckily I was able to get it out but damn it felt close. I'm a li'l more careful with my eating when alone now. [/QUOTE]
