Near Death Experiences

[shropshire dan 467]

I fell on a open lunching meat tin when I was 8 fishing with my dad. Cut the main nerves and arturies in my hand and wrist 6 ops later to save me from blood loss and 63 stitches sorted. Open long term damage is loss of feeling in 2 fingers and tendanites in both hands.

I went surfing in Durban South Africa ,,, got washed off my board cos I didn't know what the feck I was doing,,, tried swimming ashore,,, but was going backwards,,, and getting smashed by big waves,,, anyway I started going down,, back up,,then down again,, I was fecked,,, and like TC story,, I was surprisingly resigned to it,,, but just as I went down for the last time,,, I hand grabed my hand and pulled me in to a boat,,, it was the lifeguards ,,, they just took me to shore and left me,,,, you could see what they thought of this Pom idiot...I had been thinking they were all just posers on the beach with bronzed lean bodies,, and surrounded by women,,, but I was glad for what they did

And here's another happened to me this year,, I copied this from a thread I did

 

 

Had a near death experience last night,, the second for me,, as I nearly drowned 23 year ago...

 

Walking down the street last night,,, I car came from behind me and hit the parked car I was walking past,,, the parked car mounted the pavement and almost pinned me to the wall,,, the speeding car, wich hit the parked car, got flung in the air,, and rolled ending up on its roof,,,

 

Imeadatly people from all the bars,,, I'm in ibiza, came running out to help get the passengers out,, the chef from one of the bars came over to me,,, and said your one lucky fecker,,, got to be honest I was a bit shook up....

 

For a Minuit or two, I stood watching all the people trying to help the passengers,, the plod were there in seconds as there's loads of police here,,, for a second I thought I should help,,, then I thought feck em,,, c**ts nearly made my kids fatherless,,, a bit evil I know,,,

 

The lucky thing for me was the car that was parked,,, was the first one,,, there was big gap behind it,, and had the speeding car not hit the parked car,,, or I was second later,, it could have been a different story,,, the thing was I never herd a thing,, until the almighty bang at the side of me,, no skidding sound ,,no brake noise nothing ..

 

I walked back down the street ,,and carried on drinking ,,,lol.

Got myself in a few dodgy situations while working in West Africa through drink when you think your untouchable ...then you wake up in the morning think wtf were you up to last night .

In 2006 I was in Angola and around 50 locals were having meeting and threatening to strike over there friend being sacked the meeting strated getting a bit heated after a few hours and we could see what was happening from our office that was above the yard ...there were a few blacks in our office and this big horrible german c@nt .said the best thing you can do is give all these black bxstxrds gun and let them shoot them selves ....not his best ever move ....a few of the locals found out about this and all hell broke loose ...they were like fukin Zulus eyes popping out of there heads demanding his blood ...me and a big Nigerian lad managed to smuggle him out the building and got him to fuk out of there but they posted look out s at the airport ...the horrible Nazi bxstxrd had to go into hiding for a few weeks before getting out of the country.

Because we had helped him we were the next target so I armed myself with 2 hammers and was prepared to take out anyone that came near me then one of the girls in the office said there away to get guns now that's when you go from being filled with andrenilin and prepared to fight to absolutely shiting it ...ive never been so scared in my life I mean real fear of dying all you think about is wife and the weeman ...we manged to get the fuk out of there and a week later was working with them all again ...but heard the german was working in the Gongo a few months later and was attacked .

A year past August I was offshore on a semi in the North SEA and had just finished a job on the lift frame about 50 feet up finished came down and gave my rideing belt to another lad so he could get taken up on the winch to do his job 2 mins later the whole thing fialed and my mate was hit by 10 ton of equipment falling it knocked hikm to the ground from 50feet he broke his pelvis ribs arm leg dislocated his shoulder and punctured a lung ...not good to see ....if I had been up there when it happened I would not be here today as the position I was up there it would of came down on top of me ...same thing all you think about is you family .....that's why I left the north sea ...also getting on they choppers now adays is not a good feeling

 

 

We had an office/workshop in Nigeria and they had a dispute very similar. Unfortunately the 'hard ass' who sacked the union members went home on his time off and his replacement was assassinated at the front gates, shot at close range.

 

I worked in Algeria for many years amongst other places and when I look back on how dangerous it was it makes me shudder. I'm with you on not doing stuff like that anymore including working in the North Sea.

When was a lad I fell head first into a well once. It was in my aunts garden and f I remember rightly (I was very young) it was covered and nobody knew it was there. Luckily my brother pulled me out by my legs. too young to remember anything much but darkness and thick bubbles. Then standing shivering in a blanket
