<p>^I am right now scarred by that image. I hope your right eye is fine now.</p>
<p>I grabbed the prongs of a plugged in extension cord… on purpose… twice… one after the other…</p>
<p>I was really stupid XD. Fortunately I didn’t get injured, just shocked really hard</p>
<p>Just gonna reiterate what others asked earlier…</p>
<p>To those who experienced out-of-body/ near-death experiences, what were they like?</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Almost choked on a hot dog.</p></li>
<li><p>Had a can of lighter fluid blow up in my hand a couple years ago.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>I almost drowned in a hot tub when I was around 4/5. I remember parts of it vividly, and it is still very scary to think about. I remember thinking to myself “I’m going to die.” One of the worse parts of it is the fact that when two young girls around my age came over to pull me out, I got one gasp of air and then their mom (who I don’t think knew what was going on) yelled for them to come because they were leaving the pool area.</p>
<p>I was also in a plane one time that took off very suddenly because another plane was landing and coming straight toward it.</p>
<p>And I have choked on a fried Mozarella cheese stick.</p>
<p>Yea, im also interested in thethrill0109’s question. Did you see that mysterious blinding white light?!</p>
<p>Lol, so my original response was just a joke. As for my actual response, I’m not sure if this counts, but my actual near death experience was probably when I was around 6, and I manged to strangle myself with the strings of our blinds, since I thought it would look all pretty as a necklace haha. As a result, I knocked myself in to a coma, due to the lack of oxygen reaching my brain, for about 7 days. Apparently, I was completely unresponsive, and when I awoke a week later, I felt really groggy, and ate jello, although nothing really had any flavor. As for anything that happened in between I have a bunch of stories of things I believe that happened, but it might just be memories created when I think about it again. Everything seems like a dream-like stupor after that. After that, I had to re-learn basic motor skills again, “supposedly” I was to incur brain damage, but I “think” that none did occur. Hopefully.</p>
<p>I was hit by a car.</p>
<p>The car hit me around 15 miles an hour??? Maybe more, maybe less. Anyways, i was on my bike and then suddenly… darkness. After 1 or 2 seconds of pure shock and blackness, vision started coming back and so did pain. I had a broke arm and rib but luckily, i think the bike absorb most of the damage. The back wheel was just… no longer a wheel lol. What really sucked was that flew forward and hit the curb instead of the nice grass. If i landed on the grass, I woulda been completely unhurt.</p>
<p>The guy drove off. Didnt see the license plate. I called 911 but i kinda just cried into the phone.</p>
<p>@Brostradamus Holy **<strong><em>ing </em></strong></p>
<p>yeah I do live life pretty dangerously</p>
<p>and to jerrry, I don’t have a lens in that eye (~20/400 vision) but I have gotten used to seeing out of only the left one. Fortunately New Jersey still gave me my driver’s licence even though I failed the eye test :P</p>
<p>I’ve been in a couple ski accidents in downhill courses in which I would have likely died if not for catching myself well enough just to shatter a hand and break a rib/ break a leg.</p>
<p>I nearly drowned in a family friend’s pool when I was like 9-10 years old. It was the scariest thing that ever happened to me.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>You need to let a spider crawl up and down your arm, then; doing so will help you reevaluate the meaning of the word “scary.” :)</p>
<p>Spiders aren’t scary</p>
<p>^spiders are freaky, man.</p>
<p>

<p>My short and simple. I stood next to myself and saw the docs working on me. Then I looked over and saw my grandmother (who had been dead for ~9 years). I instinctively knew to follow her and we went down to the bottom floor of the hospital. There, I saw my grandpa and uncle who lived in Cali and I had no idea they were flying in. I looked at my grandmother and knew that I was going to live… I can’t explain it. Then, I started to wake up and I could hear the docs. I started murmuring to my parents about my uncle and grandpa and my parents couldn’t figure out what I was talking about. They came up about 10 minutes later. My parents didn’t know they were there.</p>
<p>I wasn’t a Catholic after that point. Go figure lol.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I have this nightmare all the time. When one of my parents are driving, I still don’t stick my arm out the window because I am not sure if the power-window controlled window could crush me if they put it up. Has anybody ever gotten their hand/arm crushed in the window like this similar to his neck?</p>
<p>I urinated on a crocodile in the Everglades… it woke up and was creeping towards me. I kind of froze, and it must have been 2-3 feet away from me before my parents snatched me into the car :eek: (I was in kindergarten)</p>
<p>Summer before freshman year I was in Greece and met up with a friend. We were getting off a ferry listening to my iPod and didn’t notice a car coming by. It hit me a little bit as it was stopping hehe</p>
<p>Omg that made me remember, one time I almost fell out of the car when I was little because my parents forgot to lock the door. I held onto the door and the car was moving but we managed to stop in time.</p>
