The part about grandparents being the real homies is literally my life story. Abusive af parents, hated my life and planned my escape since I was 6, left parents at 18 to live with grandma in another state hundreds of miles away. My grandma is raising me now the way she wished her daughter has raised me and is trying to help undo the damage that came from being abused for 13 years. (5-18)
a girl tried to hook up with me. It usually never happens like that. felt weird about it and turned it down. EXACTLY 9 months later, i see her post about her newborn
I gave up getting 3 stars at 200cc because I'd get first every race except there would always be one level I got fucked by rng and it made me so mad every time.
I was a soldier deployed to thailand for my military service. on the eve of the new year, we made plans to go to a club we all loved. at the last minute, a call came in, and this lady friend asked us to go to another club instead. we agreed. later that night, we started receiving panicked phone call by our COS - turned out the other club we were supposed to go to burned down thanks to fireworks being started off by the performing band, and many people died. Our guys politely thanked me and the girl for changing venues at the last minute; we all lived because of the last min decision. Funny part - the COS was panicking throughout the night because he couldnt get through to one fellow officer who liked the place and we knew for a fact he had gone to the club that had burnt down. when we finally got him... we found out that he was sleeping in the hotel - he had decided that he was tired and retired for the night... just an hour before the club burnt down. Sad part, one countryman did die, but he wasn't part of our detachment. turns out that guy was a recruit who had finished his basic, and travelled to thailand to have one last party before he got his posting orders.
When my mother was pregnant, she felt that something was wrong and demanded the hospital to give her a checkup after many times of being refused. After 5 hours of waiting they gave her a checkup and discover ed that my heart rate was decreasing and that she had to get a C-section immediately. I was born and put straight into and Incubator thing. I could have been dead if mom didn't go into Karen mode. The scariest thing is, is that later on mom found out that the exact nurse that was refusing her the checkup, was the reason behind 3 children being born dead. I can't imagine what mom would be going through if she went home instead and listened to that nurse. I would be dead, and she would have been shattered.
I was talking to this girl with a crazy ex. He called my phone saying hes still hitting it. I stopped talking to her. Well I guess I wasn't the only one she was talking to cuz a few days later the ex showed up to her apt with a baseball bat. He beat the new guy into a coma. I was like, damn that coulda been me.
Andre Buckner Just because it's common doesn't mean it's fake. You can meet multiple of the same types of people. Doesn't mean the 25 after the first one are fake.
I almost committed self deletion in my family's garage back when I was 19, but at the last minute a friend of mine showed up on the front porch shouting "what's up effer, who wants pizza?!" I panicked, ran in to the front door and kept him away from the garage, which kept me away from it too, long enough that I decided to get therapy. My last appointment was in Dec 2019 due to current events, but after more than 3 years of therapy, my diagnosis had changed from suicidal depression to clinical depression, with a hint of occasional disassociation. Currently nothing feels real enough for me to be depressed about.
My dad told me and my sisters about the one time he played Russian Roulette. He, his buddies, and his girlfriend at the time were drunk and thought it was a good idea. One of his buddies had a revolver, and they started playing. When it was my dad's turn he put the gun to his head. Just as he was about to pull the trigger his girlfriend launched herself at him and pushed the gun away. The gun went off and the bullet went into the roof above them. Everyone immediately sobered up and he's refused to play it since.
@@reijitasm I was too young to remember anything the only reminder for me was the huge 4ft tall teddy bear my familly bought for me. Kept that thing for years until it started graying from dirt and use. As far as I can say, I made full recovery and had no known problems, so thank you doctors and nurses.
@@jean-sebastienmatte2358 I am very glad that it didn't leave any lasting consequences on you, your story seems to be very interesting! Thank you for sharing.
As a kid, I would often wear one of my dad's old motorcycle helmets around the house, because I thought I looked cool. One time my mom got a phone call and walked around the corner into the kitchen. I decided that would be a perfect time to try to climb the wall until, while still wearing a sparkly silver motorcycle helmet. The wall unit had a fold out drawer that I was attempting to sit on, when the top half of the unit suddenly tipped forward. The glass cabinet door ending up breaking over top of my head and the whole thing came down resting on my head/helmet. I was able to slip out from the helmet as my mom came screaming into the room. I looked at her and casually remarked "Good thing I had my helmet on, mom." I was telling this story to a coworker when she suddenly burst into tears. A friend of hers had recently lost a child in a very similar accident involving a book case.
23:33, I also have issues with depression and my cat saved my life a few times. Sadly, I lost him on November 11, 2020 after a battle with liver failure, liver disease, and a fast spreading, inoperable, malignant, and terminal case of Stage 4 cancer in his intestines and abdomen. He was there for me for 16 years of my life.
I declined an offer to go to a party. At the end 1 random dude died trying to swim in the river and one was arrested because he was to pushy with girls. This day a full night of gaming maybe saved my life. Thanks you Skyrim
When I was twelve me and my friend went skiing in the alps. One of the days her parents had gone of to go to the top of the mountain to do some harder skiing but me and my friend went down the valley to the easier slopes. We were meant to get off the bus on the right side of the valley but I was dumb so we got off on the left side. On the right side there was a massive avalanche killing 23 people exactly where we were meant to be. Thank god I’m dumb and can’t tell left from right. And RIP the people who died 💔
One time as a kid, around 12 my mom was in a parent teacher conference or something for my sister, 9 at the time, and it was dark out, me and my sister were playing in the dark at the playground about a football field away, and I saw this man approaching us. The light was coming from he bind him so I couldn’t see his face but I could tell it was a man in his 50 somethings with white hair, speed walking straight towards me. I had been just sitting on this little bridge and I noticed this guy was definitely walking with intent right past my sister straight towards me. My parents had warned me about kidnapping to the extreme as a kid so I didn’t take the chance, I yelled at my sister to run and we both did toward the building. We looked back after we got about halfway there and we saw him doing pull ups on the monkey bars. We got inside and told my mom and my sisters teacher and we went to go look and he was gone. It was well known around my town that a few weeks prior another boy was almost kidnapped by a man with white hair as well. This isn’t cap.
I’m gonna keep this short. Because it’s a long story and it gives me PTSD. I turned a corner in my car and there was a car upside down in the middle of the road with two women in it. I told my wife to call 911 and ran out to pull the two out. We stayed with them until the ambulance and responding offer showed up. One week later, I was accused of a crime I didn’t commit. My guilt was decided before I was even interviewed. I’m called into the station, and end up in a full scale police interrogation. After half an hour, the interrogator recognizes me. The same officer that responded to the accident last week. These women treated me like I had saved their lives. I guess they relayed that same thing to the officer. I almost did ten years in prison for a crime I didn’t commit one month after my son was born. Deciding to go Christmas shopping early saved my entire life.
@@hkpaleknight8131 I think a baby deserves to live even with failure parents, life is hard for everyone. It depends on the baby whether they can turn life around, and grow up to be better than their parents. I think it's better to live with not so great parents than to die
@@hkpaleknight8131 Parent's can always improve. Remember that. He might have turned his dad responsibilities around that day. Don't discredit people, someone people might actually change themselves for the better. What you said is pretty heartless
@@DazzlingPotatoes I say that becuase well, let me put it like this, if this babys parents are bad they probably wont take care of the child and probably dont care about the child, and leave the child to school to where he probably will get bullied and then depressed, and wish for a better life or get revenge with a fatal *weapon* and also your over valuing a single soul
Here’s my story: I was having a sleepover with my friends and my younger brother, let’s call him Joe, was mad that I wouldn’t let him play hide and seek with us so he got my older brother’s AXE and started hitting my door with it, at first I thought it was from Joe hitting/punching the door, so glad I didn’t open it because he was hitting the door at eye level (door was locked + I was holding it with my bodyweight) Scratches in the door are still there
An actual bullet that whizzed passed where my head was a second ago after poking my head away from the bullet proof glass out to tell a kid to go away. Apparently it was a sharpshooter who killed 3 others in a different area of operations.
When my mom was in college, to get home, she took the subway with a friend of hers. Said friend always liked to ride in the car that was closest to the front, too. One day they were entering the station when they saw the train was about to leave, so the friend was like "Let's wait for the next one" and my mom said "No, if we run we can still catch it" so they did just that. Next thing they know is that the train behind them was caught by a tunnel cave-in. And the front cars got the worst out of it. Had they not run to catch the train... well, I probablly wouldn't be here writing this. The creepiest part, though, was that my mom apparently had been having this recurring nightmare of the subway suddenly stopping and everyone having to get down and start walking down the tunnels, which were always decorated with drawings of devils. After the accident, she never had that nightmare again.
I actually have a few of these. Firstly, when I was a toddler my parents had that baby radio thing that let you hear what was going on in the other room, and my parents had been thinking about getting rid of that since I was starting my 2nd grade year of school. Before they did that, I apparently had a very severe asthma attack and my parents heard my struggled breathing on the radio and rushed me to the hospital, where I had passed out on the way and woke up 2 days later. We didn't find out until that attack that I had asthma as well allergies that could cause swelling. If they got rid of that baby monitor I may have suffocated in my sleep and my parents wouldn't have been able to hear me. Another close bullet was literally that same year during a Christmas Eve party, when at one point I, my Aunt and Uncle, Grandpa and grandma, and great grandma were going to go down to the church to donate some stuff at night for the next day's Christmas Day at the church. Now normally when there's not enough seats in the car I would just ride in someone's lap without a seatbelt. Well, they were getting ready to leave while I was in the middle of a game of Twisted Metal (they hadn't told me they were leaving before any of this) and I was understandably not happy, so they left me with everyone else while they left to go to the church. Later that night we got a call that a drunk driver had clipped the rear end of their car while speeding through the an intersection, and the car flipped on the hood and went to skid all the way down the road for a good while (uncle was driving like 60 since the light had been green). Had I been in that car without a seat belt I have no doubts I would have dead. Thankfully the worst that happened was the car got totaled and my grandma hurt her neck so she requires massage therapy for it. It could have been a lot worse. The last time was when I was about 15 or so and my dad had been driving on a super busy highway. We were on one of those parts of a highway that was like a huge bridge that stood about 60 feet in the air above the ground of some kinda industrial yard. The highway is moving quite fast with a few huge semi trucks around, and one of them tried to pull into our lane when we had another semi immediately to our right, so my dad had to slam the gas and try to pull out in front of the semi on our right, but was forced to keep going because the car up ahead of us for some reason had been slowing down so we ended up on that edge area where the barriers are and there was yet ANOTHER god damn car that had been parked on the side of the road so my dad had to slam the brakes hard and thread the needle right between the stopped car and the barrier. It was simultaneously the most terrifying thing that has happened to me while also being the most badass thing I've ever seen my dad do, it's like he was straight out of an action movie. The universe really wanted us dead that day with how much shit it threw at us, and my dad dodged every single bullet for us with his insane driving ability.
As a foreign woman living and working in Indonesia, my local boyfriend asked me to marry him. He asked me to change my nationality and my religion to do so. Had I gone through with it, I would have lost the right to leave the country whenever I wanted, my right to property, the right to be equal as a woman, and the right to raise our potential kids in non-muslim values. I found out he was cheating on me and noped out of there. Best decision in my life. Can't believe I was stupid enough to go out with him in the first place.
@@agenericusername2488 not exactly, no. He was military so rules applying to him are special. I would have needed his authorization to get divorced, and authorization from the government to leave the country.
@@MisterPyOne yes, some people are very nice and warm. I still keep contact with them and I absolutely love them, but I´m really happy I left for another country where I have more freedom.
When I was a junior in highschool I had this buddy that would drive me to school nearly every day. Sometimes he would have one other friend. He picked me up one day and he asked if I wanted to smoke a joint before we went in. I was never really keen on smoking before school but I didn't care if he was going to himself. I took maybe one hit but that was it. When we arrived at the school a short time later his other friend asked to chill with us before school started. I just went into the school and left them alone. We had first period together and when they walked in they must've smoked a ton more because everyone was questioning the weed smell. The teacher came up to us since we all say next to one another and asked to talk to us. I was like "Me too?". She said "No just them two.". I knew immediately what was going on. They were texting me to hide their sweatshirts or something while they were in the principals office but the teacher already took it as evidence or some shit. They had the police search the car and he found multiple joints. They were suspended for 10 days. I could have gotten fucked with that too. All it took was them looking at the cameras and seeing me get out of that car as well. Completely lucked out.
A literal bullet, lol. I was walking around in the woods with my friend in the woods that started right next to his house. We were a good half mile away from his house when we suddenly spotted some (3, to be exact) hunters in orange vests and hunting gear. Next thing we know, they fired a shot at us. It passed between both of us. We both felt the air being pushed away by the bullet, and heard it whistle past us. They never fired another shot. I can only assume that they realized their mistake shortly after. We never yelled at them to let them know we were human, but in hindsight, we should have. Either way, shitty hunters if you ask me. You shouldn't just randomly shoot because you see movement.. It was either an accident or dude who shot was a psychopath and said to his buddies "watch this, I'm gonna scare the shit out of them". I'll never know, but I've learned that if it's hunting season and you wanna go in the woods, wear an orange/neon vest
About 15 years ago I refused a direct order by the CEO of the company I worked for to sign a shady financial transfer to another company. I was fired a couple of weeks later. My successor did give his signature. He and the chief accountant ended up in prison after $3 mil went missing due to that. I wonder if they are out already...
I had a similar experience when a tiger escaped his enclosure.... And nearly pounced in me and several others... . But it was lured back into his enclosure again... I bet it was just hungry... No one was harmed I think someone peed their pants tho...slightly traumatizing but hilarious at the same time...
damn. I was in an archery club too but fortunately they are very strict with the rules and people are never allowed to be shooting while other people are collecting arrows/moving around in gereral.
The biggest bullet i dodged is that my 1st period class got all tested positive for covid, but i was sick that day, so now i sit with a substitute teacher in my class
I was jogging on the road of my campus one morning. This was immediately after my daily two-hour Taekwondo training for varsity, so I was super tired and unfocused. Suddenly I felt the hair on the back of my neck raise. On pure instinct, I immediately jumped right and threw myself to the ground. A gigantic tree branch, larger than my entire body, smashed down on the road, right at the spot I had been. It was so close that the branch had actually clipped my shoe AND sock completely off my left foot. Not gonna lie, I totally felt like Spiderman. I must have subconsciously heard the branch cracking off the tree or something like that because I had no conscious idea that would happen. All I remember thinking of at the time was how good a hot shower would be.
No but this person really just went tumbling out the treehouse, a high ass place, and almost got stabbed by a bunch of nails, but just escaped it by a few feet at the most
When my mom was 13, my grandfather had a widowmaker heart attack in the middle of playing baseball. The rosters of both teams consisted of EMTs and cops. Immediate medical intervention and a speed-limit-breaking police escort to the hospital later, it just so happened that one of the foremost cardiac surgeons in the state of Texas was at said hospital that day. My grandfather lived fifty more years after that, surviving on the bleeding edge of medical science. They actually used him as a guinea pig for many treatments that are now much more commonplace; in that way, his survival helped ensure the survival of others. He dodged a bullet and spent the rest of that borrowed time helping others dodge them as well. I'll always be proud of him for that.
It's weird how animals can sort of feel their owner's sadness. When I hit a few low points, my dog always comforted me, and even though she was in the room, she refused to leave my side unless I couldn't be at home. She even slept in her bed beside mine (she normally sleeps around the room). I'm glad that she was here or I might have been gone today.
I guess in most cases, if we dodge a really big bullet, we will never know that we did. I have this thought remembering the biggest bullet I didn't dodge: my first baby was due with a planned c-section because she was in feet breech position. Upon being taken into the hospital, the obstetrician checked and saw she had turned to the correct presentation, so they sent me home because the reason for c-section was just not there anymore, and I was very happy because i was desperate for a natural delivery. Looks like a dodged bullet right? Nope. Nothing happened until some days after the term. The birthing process started, but there were major complications, I had to go under emergency c-section, the baby almost died (she was born with Apgar score 1/10) and needed resuscitation and 2 weeks of massive NICU treatment that kept me from seeing her at all for the first 3 days. For about a week we didn't know whether she would survive, and for more than one year there was fear she might bear permanent brain damage. Thank God everything turned out well. If she didn't turn head down, I would have had a sad but quiet planned c-section, she would be in my arms within minutes with no issues and I would have lived all my life with a bitter memory of delivery without knowing what we had escaped. Instead, now that I have experienced the second worst thing (her being stillborn would have been the only possible first), I am a different person than I was, maybe more grateful, humble and strong than I would have been otherwise.
When I was five, my house was the target of an arson fire. My parents were still inside and they survived, but died several weeks later in the hospital. My sister and I were there fifteen minutes before it happened when our grandma picked us up to give our parents some alone time (it was Father's day/my mom's birthday), if she was any later I probably wouldn't exist right now.
I was expecting people with crazy 'bunny boiler' exes and serial killer neighbors. I got freak accidents and lots of reckless and irresponsible people.
I remember I was at a water park, and I just entered the wave maker section. It’s started with open water, towards the left being the entrance to a river where the waves would push you and the right being the exit of the river. When you went through the entrance, you would go through calm water before you came to the end of a wall, next to it being the wave maker, which wasn’t covered. It was about 25 feet away from the end of the wall coming from the calm side, so there was space, but it was massive. As we went in, I noticed how some people would jump into the waves as they were made and get a super fast boost. Once my family and I went through it, I did it again and tried the wave thing. When I tried it however, I managed to get sucked under the wave and felt a strong current pushing me back. Out of panic, I grabbed the end of the wall and held on for dear life, and I held on until a lifeguard came in to pull me out.
Girl said she couldn't get pregnant, was basically holding me down telling me to finish in her. I summoned the power of Zeus and threw her off. She got pregnant from other guy like a month later. Lessons were learned.
@@PrinceArthur711 omg I agree with you so much! How tf is causing a baby to die for the sake of his dad learning a lesson even an idea? You're literally ending a life just for a lesson. So unfair and heartless I'm pretty sure knowing your child would have died if a stranger hadn't intevened is heart attack enough.
I was once doing a famous bicycle route in my country. Sometimes the bicycle lane was going next to the pedestrian street. The amount of 3 years olds I almost ran over because their parents were on the phone and the kid was just wandering on to the bicycle track was worrying.
Swimming in a baby pool when I was six, there was glass underneath it and the pressure let it push through and my arm went right over it, looking at the scar now I can tell just how close it was to cutting my veins
One time my friend was getting onto her bus to go to school, what she didn’t know was that a large truck was coming straight at the bus (I forget what happened, probably the brakes not working). Her mother noticed and pulled her out of the doorway just in time as the truck slammed into the bus. There were many injuries, one person at the back of the bus flew to the front and got a metal rod in their leg or something, had to go to the hospital. It was pretty long ago that I heard this story, but I remember the important details. Thank goodness my friends mother reacted quickly.
Commercial vehicles such as Semis, Dump Trucks, Cranes, and Moving Vans use air brakes. Air Brakes are generally more reliable then conventional brakes but they have to be carefully monitored and maintained. You're supposed to drain the air tanks before you set off to get rid of any water or oil that might be in them because they will freeze in the cold and cause the brakes to fail. You need to carefully monitor the air tanks levels while driving to make sure they don't get too low that the brakes won't have enough to work. And you need to verify that this monitoring system is working in the first place before taking off. And check the brakes themselves for any abberations. What I'm trying to say is there is a lot there that might have caused this.
10:47 If anyone’s curious, the link to the picture of the katana-impaled headboard still works. It’s interesting, to say the least 😳 (only the headboard was hurt).
Signed up for the Army, got a 96 on the asvab. The day before I ship, I get told I have marfans syndrome. The physical training would have killed me. Mitral valves all floppy and shit.
My sister dropped an open hydroflask filled with water and, though a bit spilled, i caught it about 10 inches above the ground. I saved her and me a lot of cleaning, but we were both in shock for a bit afterwards.
The thing about this kind of video is that they make me afraid of, you know, living. Like, all the crazy bizarre accidents that can happen in a mundane situation are sometimes too much for my anxious ass to handle.
Legit holding and petting one of my cats when I got to the one where OP was saved by their cat. She didn't save me (yet), but I hugged my cat close after hearing the story.
I was in 6th grade camp, and was always a nervous little wreck. I didn't want to go climb the rest of the way up a steep hill, because if I were to slip, I would have fallen and probably died... Despite the fact obviously they weren't going to let me fall. A counselor stayed back with me and we talked, just pacing around, when suddenly, he snatched me back, and a huge tree fell from the canopy and slammed down where I had been standing. I felt like I was about to vomit. He explained to me they were called "widow makers" because so many lumber workers died from them, leaving their wives widowed. The rest of the class had to comeback around another way, and for some reason, it helped me relax. I was so afraid of a near death experience, and I had had one.
This happened when I was little. Missed a train and had to wait for the next one. The train stopped a few stations down the line and told everyone to get off the trains were closing. Didn’t think anything of it at the time I just thought the trains got tired (yeah that kind of young). A few years later I had a full existential crisis when my dad told me the train we missed was blown up in a terrorist attack.
A friend's gf wanted to set me up with her sister. The gf herself was a lovely girl so maybe her sister was raised right too. She wasn't. The sister had some weird ideas about living on a commune and traveling across the country with no real source of income. After I decided against this, she immediately attached herself to a former Marine and got pregnant. As soon as she gave birth she took the kid, moved into a commune and off the grid. No one can find her but the Marine still has to pay child support. Bullet. Dodged.
not going to a carnival that my best friend invited me to. Someone ended up getting stabbed right next to him. If I would've went, I would've been right next to him.
I remember being a really young kid, maybe 3rd or 4th grade, when some high schooler decided me verbally defending myself from a bully from a lower grade was worth trying to assault me. I managed to outrun him from my school all the way home, having a moment where I nearly avoided him trying to crush me after i jumped over a junk couch someone in the neighborhood left out for trash collection to hide. If he landed on me in that very crucial moment, I bet I would have died from suffocation or just being crushed by someone 100+lbs heavier than me
we were playing dodge ball in my tae kwon do academy and there were two teachers throwing the ball, anyway everyone ran to the other side of the room and looked scared while i looked confused, then it clicked to me, it was like i could sense my teacher yanking his hand to throw the ball and how the ball was leaving his hand and i felt like i could see from a third person perspective opened my third eye or some ultra instinct shit because i immidiately leaned forward like how you salute in martial arts and the ball completely missed me by slightly flying over my bent back to my peers who just looked at me shocked as did my teachers, i had risen above all for a moment achieving the so glorified forsight ability of the ancient grand elder martial artists and stood up straight with a grin on my face while everyone stopped the game for some moments, my teachers were proud to say the least
That's fake bro. U most likely saw the hand in a motion about to throw the ball, and saw the ball in the corner of your eye. Nonetheless u have phenomenal reaction time.
@@IAmComicallyCartoonyYKnow that was my kid who made that. I work in velocity and angles for loads of tennis games. I basically prepare and analyse whether their machines are correctly showing the speed the ball travels. My biggest was a Wimbledon. I've basically analysed all the possible ways a human catches a ball to for baseball games so that I can get that km/hr to be correct. I can tell from the positioning he must of scene where the hands were facing. This allowed him to tell when to jump and doge. An phenomenal display either way of perfect skill
When I lived in Haiti, I was in school and my teacher said we don't have French class anymore because our teacher was absent (the French room is next to the outdoor cafeteria and the back gate on the other side of the soccer field. So we go back to class and we here a loud bang. Turns out a tear gas grenade was set of right next to the back gate in the same area where I had my class.
When my very very toxic friend moved to Wales. Then began glorifying self harm. With my suicidal tendencies and history her glorifyingvthis would have likely cost my life as it would ok what my brain told me
Once was gunna try things serious with this girl I had met at work, things ended up not working out. Now she has 4 kids and they all have major, serious medical problems The kids are from 3 different baby daddies.
every time i get feeling like doing something bad to myself my dog has a habit of coming up and looking at me reminding me that he would probably starve before anyone found me and making me chuck those thoughts out.
Me and my mom dodged one together kinda. My mom is a diabetic, and she has very bad lungs. She is a police officer and is retiring in 6 months. She was a police officer during 9/11 and she inhaled a lot of the smoke and it damaged her lungs. Anyway when she was giving birth to me, I was not ok. I was under weight and I was small. By my moms story they didn't think I was going to make it. I really don't know how I survived its still a mystery to this day. And now I'm very tall, and I'm still skinny tho, and I weigh average thankfully 😅
When I was a baby on my walker I managed to open the door net of my apartment (the regular door was open because of the heat), we live at the second floor of the building, I felt down the stairs without a scratch, my mom said that I didn't even cry, it was a miracle that I didn't broke anything or worse. That baby walker saved my life.
I had walking pneumonia. As a 2nd/3rd grader. Went to the doctor. Then I understood why I kept coughing ALL the time. I was literally fine while having it though, and I recovered after a while.
My dad owned a construction company back in the day. Super small family affair. My sisters husband of that year decided he was king shit when it came to construction because his uncle (read father figure) was a very skilled carpenter. Dad hired him and he dropped a nine foot ply wood rectangle off a two story building while I was working shingle cleanup and fell standing up mere inches from my face. Turns out every thing he did needed to be redone by dad too
almost a year ago i was talking to one of my parents’ friends and he asked me if i talked in my sleep. my answer was “i don’t know, i never ask about it.” and then he gave an explanation about this story of a guy who said he didn’t talk in his sleep and his friend told him to take a nap. i was so close to being told to shut up by an elderly person, that would have been humiliating.
Reminds me of my English teacher. Dudes dad was abusive and a drunk, mother was a druggy. One day his dad was drinking and arguing with the mom. Dad got pissed and got a shotgun. My teacher at the time was 5 watching tv. Guy came in and out the gun to his head and pulled the trigger, the gun jammed.

I was in the kitchen making food at 10/11pm and dropped my glass(pint glass) onto the floor (I wasn’t wearing shoes). To this day I don’t know how, but before the glass hit the floor I leaped up directly on top of my chair and didn’t get a single shard of glass stuck in any part of my body
I was in a skatepark a few years back, I was at the top of a ramp waiting to some other kid to finish. He sliped in the skate causing him to almost falling forward, and I barely dodge the flying skateboard. That would have surely destroyed my nose, forehead, you name it. Also, I would have fall into the ground, most likely giving me a severe concusion. Man did I dodged quite the bullet there!

Meet the Scout
I was a soldier deployed to thailand for my military service. on the eve of the new year, we made plans to go to a club we all loved. at the last minute, a call came in, and this lady friend asked us to go to another club instead. we agreed. later that night, we started receiving panicked phone call by our COS - turned out the other club we were supposed to go to burned down thanks to fireworks being started off by the performing band, and many people died.
Our guys politely thanked me and the girl for changing venues at the last minute; we all lived because of the last min decision. Funny part - the COS was panicking throughout the night because he couldnt get through to one fellow officer who liked the place and we knew for a fact he had gone to the club that had burnt down. when we finally got him... we found out that he was sleeping in the hotel - he had decided that he was tired and retired for the night... just an hour before the club burnt down.
Sad part, one countryman did die, but he wasn't part of our detachment. turns out that guy was a recruit who had finished his basic, and travelled to thailand to have one last party before he got his posting orders.

When my mother was pregnant, she felt that something was wrong and demanded the hospital to give her a checkup after many times of being refused.
After 5 hours of waiting they gave her a checkup and discover ed that my heart rate was decreasing and that she had to get a C-section immediately. I was born and put straight into and Incubator thing.
I could have been dead if mom didn't go into Karen mode.
The scariest thing is, is that later on mom found out that the exact nurse that was refusing her the checkup, was the reason behind 3 children being born dead.
I can't imagine what mom would be going through if she went home instead and listened to that nurse. I would be dead, and she would have been shattered.

I almost committed self deletion in my family's garage back when I was 19, but at the last minute a friend of mine showed up on the front porch shouting "what's up effer, who wants pizza?!" I panicked, ran in to the front door and kept him away from the garage, which kept me away from it too, long enough that I decided to get therapy. My last appointment was in Dec 2019 due to current events, but after more than 3 years of therapy, my diagnosis had changed from suicidal depression to clinical depression, with a hint of occasional disassociation.
Currently nothing feels real enough for me to be depressed about.
Best wishes, mate. I’m glad you held on.
If I may ask, does he know what he did for you?
Glad you’re doing better now :) but fr tho, how the fuck was the pizza?

My dad told me and my sisters about the one time he played Russian Roulette. He, his buddies, and his girlfriend at the time were drunk and thought it was a good idea. One of his buddies had a revolver, and they started playing. When it was my dad's turn he put the gun to his head. Just as he was about to pull the trigger his girlfriend launched herself at him and pushed the gun away. The gun went off and the bullet went into the roof above them. Everyone immediately sobered up and he's refused to play it since.

As a kid, I would often wear one of my dad's old motorcycle helmets around the house, because I thought I looked cool. One time my mom got a phone call and walked around the corner into the kitchen. I decided that would be a perfect time to try to climb the wall until, while still wearing a sparkly silver motorcycle helmet. The wall unit had a fold out drawer that I was attempting to sit on, when the top half of the unit suddenly tipped forward. The glass cabinet door ending up breaking over top of my head and the whole thing came down resting on my head/helmet. I was able to slip out from the helmet as my mom came screaming into the room. I looked at her and casually remarked "Good thing I had my helmet on, mom."
I was telling this story to a coworker when she suddenly burst into tears. A friend of hers had recently lost a child in a very similar accident involving a book case.

One time as a kid, around 12 my mom was in a parent teacher conference or something for my sister, 9 at the time, and it was dark out, me and my sister were playing in the dark at the playground about a football field away, and I saw this man approaching us. The light was coming from he bind him so I couldn’t see his face but I could tell it was a man in his 50 somethings with white hair, speed walking straight towards me. I had been just sitting on this little bridge and I noticed this guy was definitely walking with intent right past my sister straight towards me. My parents had warned me about kidnapping to the extreme as a kid so I didn’t take the chance, I yelled at my sister to run and we both did toward the building. We looked back after we got about halfway there and we saw him doing pull ups on the monkey bars. We got inside and told my mom and my sisters teacher and we went to go look and he was gone. It was well known around my town that a few weeks prior another boy was almost kidnapped by a man with white hair as well. This isn’t cap.
I’m gonna keep this short. Because it’s a long story and it gives me PTSD.
I turned a corner in my car and there was a car upside down in the middle of the road with two women in it. I told my wife to call 911 and ran out to pull the two out. We stayed with them until the ambulance and responding offer showed up.
One week later, I was accused of a crime I didn’t commit. My guilt was decided before I was even interviewed. I’m called into the station, and end up in a full scale police interrogation. After half an hour, the interrogator recognizes me. The same officer that responded to the accident last week. These women treated me like I had saved their lives. I guess they relayed that same thing to the officer.
I almost did ten years in prison for a crime I didn’t commit one month after my son was born. Deciding to go Christmas shopping early saved my entire life.

When my mom was in college, to get home, she took the subway with a friend of hers. Said friend always liked to ride in the car that was closest to the front, too.
One day they were entering the station when they saw the train was about to leave, so the friend was like "Let's wait for the next one" and my mom said "No, if we run we can still catch it" so they did just that.
Next thing they know is that the train behind them was caught by a tunnel cave-in. And the front cars got the worst out of it. Had they not run to catch the train... well, I probablly wouldn't be here writing this.
The creepiest part, though, was that my mom apparently had been having this recurring nightmare of the subway suddenly stopping and everyone having to get down and start walking down the tunnels, which were always decorated with drawings of devils. After the accident, she never had that nightmare again.
if she gets nightmares like that again, she has future powers
Or god just warned her
I actually have a few of these.
Firstly, when I was a toddler my parents had that baby radio thing that let you hear what was going on in the other room, and my parents had been thinking about getting rid of that since I was starting my 2nd grade year of school. Before they did that, I apparently had a very severe asthma attack and my parents heard my struggled breathing on the radio and rushed me to the hospital, where I had passed out on the way and woke up 2 days later. We didn't find out until that attack that I had asthma as well allergies that could cause swelling. If they got rid of that baby monitor I may have suffocated in my sleep and my parents wouldn't have been able to hear me.
Another close bullet was literally that same year during a Christmas Eve party, when at one point I, my Aunt and Uncle, Grandpa and grandma, and great grandma were going to go down to the church to donate some stuff at night for the next day's Christmas Day at the church. Now normally when there's not enough seats in the car I would just ride in someone's lap without a seatbelt. Well, they were getting ready to leave while I was in the middle of a game of Twisted Metal (they hadn't told me they were leaving before any of this) and I was understandably not happy, so they left me with everyone else while they left to go to the church. Later that night we got a call that a drunk driver had clipped the rear end of their car while speeding through the an intersection, and the car flipped on the hood and went to skid all the way down the road for a good while (uncle was driving like 60 since the light had been green). Had I been in that car without a seat belt I have no doubts I would have dead. Thankfully the worst that happened was the car got totaled and my grandma hurt her neck so she requires massage therapy for it. It could have been a lot worse.
The last time was when I was about 15 or so and my dad had been driving on a super busy highway. We were on one of those parts of a highway that was like a huge bridge that stood about 60 feet in the air above the ground of some kinda industrial yard. The highway is moving quite fast with a few huge semi trucks around, and one of them tried to pull into our lane when we had another semi immediately to our right, so my dad had to slam the gas and try to pull out in front of the semi on our right, but was forced to keep going because the car up ahead of us for some reason had been slowing down so we ended up on that edge area where the barriers are and there was yet ANOTHER god damn car that had been parked on the side of the road so my dad had to slam the brakes hard and thread the needle right between the stopped car and the barrier. It was simultaneously the most terrifying thing that has happened to me while also being the most badass thing I've ever seen my dad do, it's like he was straight out of an action movie. The universe really wanted us dead that day with how much shit it threw at us, and my dad dodged every single bullet for us with his insane driving ability.
That’s a good dad right there. Dodges death like no problem.

When I was a junior in highschool I had this buddy that would drive me to school nearly every day. Sometimes he would have one other friend. He picked me up one day and he asked if I wanted to smoke a joint before we went in. I was never really keen on smoking before school but I didn't care if he was going to himself. I took maybe one hit but that was it. When we arrived at the school a short time later his other friend asked to chill with us before school started. I just went into the school and left them alone. We had first period together and when they walked in they must've smoked a ton more because everyone was questioning the weed smell. The teacher came up to us since we all say next to one another and asked to talk to us. I was like "Me too?". She said "No just them two.". I knew immediately what was going on. They were texting me to hide their sweatshirts or something while they were in the principals office but the teacher already took it as evidence or some shit. They had the police search the car and he found multiple joints. They were suspended for 10 days. I could have gotten fucked with that too. All it took was them looking at the cameras and seeing me get out of that car as well. Completely lucked out.
Well that's not so bad... Except people that young shouldn't smoke.
@@Springfairy92 considering there still parents smoking in front of their kids, it is just a matter of time before their kids pick up the habit too.
Dude, this story is so well described, I'm getting shivers thinking how close nd how long lurking of a danger you were in. The camera bit.
A literal bullet, lol. I was walking around in the woods with my friend in the woods that started right next to his house. We were a good half mile away from his house when we suddenly spotted some (3, to be exact) hunters in orange vests and hunting gear. Next thing we know, they fired a shot at us. It passed between both of us. We both felt the air being pushed away by the bullet, and heard it whistle past us. They never fired another shot. I can only assume that they realized their mistake shortly after. We never yelled at them to let them know we were human, but in hindsight, we should have.
Either way, shitty hunters if you ask me. You shouldn't just randomly shoot because you see movement..
It was either an accident or dude who shot was a psychopath and said to his buddies "watch this, I'm gonna scare the shit out of them".
I'll never know, but I've learned that if it's hunting season and you wanna go in the woods, wear an orange/neon vest

The biggest bullet i dodged is that my 1st period class got all tested positive for covid, but i was sick that day, so now i sit with a substitute teacher in my class
I was jogging on the road of my campus one morning. This was immediately after my daily two-hour Taekwondo training for varsity, so I was super tired and unfocused. Suddenly I felt the hair on the back of my neck raise. On pure instinct, I immediately jumped right and threw myself to the ground. A gigantic tree branch, larger than my entire body, smashed down on the road, right at the spot I had been. It was so close that the branch had actually clipped my shoe AND sock completely off my left foot.
Not gonna lie, I totally felt like Spiderman. I must have subconsciously heard the branch cracking off the tree or something like that because I had no conscious idea that would happen. All I remember thinking of at the time was how good a hot shower would be.
About 1/5 into the Uber and Cats one, I was thinking "So you avoided some creepy guy AND seeing the Cats movie."
Two bullets 😂
I fell from my tree house and almost landed on some nails but somehow I rolled horizontally in the air and landed on some leaves

No but this person really just went tumbling out the treehouse, a high ass place, and almost got stabbed by a bunch of nails, but just escaped it by a few feet at the most
The reason they could move in the air is because they jumped while falling which activated the creative flying.
When my mom was 13, my grandfather had a widowmaker heart attack in the middle of playing baseball. The rosters of both teams consisted of EMTs and cops. Immediate medical intervention and a speed-limit-breaking police escort to the hospital later, it just so happened that one of the foremost cardiac surgeons in the state of Texas was at said hospital that day. My grandfather lived fifty more years after that, surviving on the bleeding edge of medical science. They actually used him as a guinea pig for many treatments that are now much more commonplace; in that way, his survival helped ensure the survival of others. He dodged a bullet and spent the rest of that borrowed time helping others dodge them as well. I'll always be proud of him for that.

@@zedantXiang well what's your explanation then
I guess in most cases, if we dodge a really big bullet, we will never know that we did. I have this thought remembering the biggest bullet I didn't dodge: my first baby was due with a planned c-section because she was in feet breech position. Upon being taken into the hospital, the obstetrician checked and saw she had turned to the correct presentation, so they sent me home because the reason for c-section was just not there anymore, and I was very happy because i was desperate for a natural delivery. Looks like a dodged bullet right? Nope. Nothing happened until some days after the term. The birthing process started, but there were major complications, I had to go under emergency c-section, the baby almost died (she was born with Apgar score 1/10) and needed resuscitation and 2 weeks of massive NICU treatment that kept me from seeing her at all for the first 3 days. For about a week we didn't know whether she would survive, and for more than one year there was fear she might bear permanent brain damage. Thank God everything turned out well.
If she didn't turn head down, I would have had a sad but quiet planned c-section, she would be in my arms within minutes with no issues and I would have lived all my life with a bitter memory of delivery without knowing what we had escaped.
Instead, now that I have experienced the second worst thing (her being stillborn would have been the only possible first), I am a different person than I was, maybe more grateful, humble and strong than I would have been otherwise.
When I was five, my house was the target of an arson fire. My parents were still inside and they survived, but died several weeks later in the hospital. My sister and I were there fifteen minutes before it happened when our grandma picked us up to give our parents some alone time (it was Father's day/my mom's birthday), if she was any later I probably wouldn't exist right now.

I remember I was at a water park, and I just entered the wave maker section. It’s started with open water, towards the left being the entrance to a river where the waves would push you and the right being the exit of the river. When you went through the entrance, you would go through calm water before you came to the end of a wall, next to it being the wave maker, which wasn’t covered. It was about 25 feet away from the end of the wall coming from the calm side, so there was space, but it was massive. As we went in, I noticed how some people would jump into the waves as they were made and get a super fast boost. Once my family and I went through it, I did it again and tried the wave thing. When I tried it however, I managed to get sucked under the wave and felt a strong current pushing me back. Out of panic, I grabbed the end of the wall and held on for dear life, and I held on until a lifeguard came in to pull me out.

Now what I'm wondering is why in the bus story would people say: "should have let the baby die"!? Like, how cold can you be!?
They were probably wanting the dad to learn his lesson more
@@Sans9 that is a ridiculous reason. Let your child die for the sake of learning, like FUCK NO! Whoever said that should never have kids
@@PrinceArthur711 there are cruel people out in the world im guessing some of them would want that dad to suffer for what he did
@@Sans9 agreed he should learn in a harsh way but saying the child should die for their PARENT is uncalled for
@@PrinceArthur711 omg I agree with you so much! How tf is causing a baby to die for the sake of his dad learning a lesson even an idea?
You're literally ending a life just for a lesson. So unfair and heartless
I'm pretty sure knowing your child would have died if a stranger hadn't intevened is heart attack enough.
I was once doing a famous bicycle route in my country. Sometimes the bicycle lane was going next to the pedestrian street. The amount of 3 years olds I almost ran over because their parents were on the phone and the kid was just wandering on to the bicycle track was worrying.
Swimming in a baby pool when I was six, there was glass underneath it and the pressure let it push through and my arm went right over it, looking at the scar now I can tell just how close it was to cutting my veins
One time my friend was getting onto her bus to go to school, what she didn’t know was that a large truck was coming straight at the bus (I forget what happened, probably the brakes not working). Her mother noticed and pulled her out of the doorway just in time as the truck slammed into the bus. There were many injuries, one person at the back of the bus flew to the front and got a metal rod in their leg or something, had to go to the hospital. It was pretty long ago that I heard this story, but I remember the important details. Thank goodness my friends mother reacted quickly.
Commercial vehicles such as Semis, Dump Trucks, Cranes, and Moving Vans use air brakes. Air Brakes are generally more reliable then conventional brakes but they have to be carefully monitored and maintained. You're supposed to drain the air tanks before you set off to get rid of any water or oil that might be in them because they will freeze in the cold and cause the brakes to fail. You need to carefully monitor the air tanks levels while driving to make sure they don't get too low that the brakes won't have enough to work. And you need to verify that this monitoring system is working in the first place before taking off. And check the brakes themselves for any abberations.
What I'm trying to say is there is a lot there that might have caused this.

Signed up for the Army, got a 96 on the asvab. The day before I ship, I get told I have marfans syndrome. The physical training would have killed me. Mitral valves all floppy and shit.
My sister dropped an open hydroflask filled with water and, though a bit spilled, i caught it about 10 inches above the ground. I saved her and me a lot of cleaning, but we were both in shock for a bit afterwards.
The thing about this kind of video is that they make me afraid of, you know, living. Like, all the crazy bizarre accidents that can happen in a mundane situation are sometimes too much for my anxious ass to handle.
Legit holding and petting one of my cats when I got to the one where OP was saved by their cat. She didn't save me (yet), but I hugged my cat close after hearing the story.

I was in 6th grade camp, and was always a nervous little wreck. I didn't want to go climb the rest of the way up a steep hill, because if I were to slip, I would have fallen and probably died... Despite the fact obviously they weren't going to let me fall. A counselor stayed back with me and we talked, just pacing around, when suddenly, he snatched me back, and a huge tree fell from the canopy and slammed down where I had been standing. I felt like I was about to vomit. He explained to me they were called "widow makers" because so many lumber workers died from them, leaving their wives widowed. The rest of the class had to comeback around another way, and for some reason, it helped me relax. I was so afraid of a near death experience, and I had had one.
This happened when I was little. Missed a train and had to wait for the next one. The train stopped a few stations down the line and told everyone to get off the trains were closing. Didn’t think anything of it at the time I just thought the trains got tired (yeah that kind of young).
A few years later I had a full existential crisis when my dad told me the train we missed was blown up in a terrorist attack.
A friend's gf wanted to set me up with her sister. The gf herself was a lovely girl so maybe her sister was raised right too. She wasn't. The sister had some weird ideas about living on a commune and traveling across the country with no real source of income. After I decided against this, she immediately attached herself to a former Marine and got pregnant. As soon as she gave birth she took the kid, moved into a commune and off the grid. No one can find her but the Marine still has to pay child support.
Bullet. Dodged.
not going to a carnival that my best friend invited me to. Someone ended up getting stabbed right next to him. If I would've went, I would've been right next to him.
The last one really shows that sometimes one of the biggest voices of chaos on the internet can also help to pop the rosy lenses out of your glasses.
I remember being a really young kid, maybe 3rd or 4th grade, when some high schooler decided me verbally defending myself from a bully from a lower grade was worth trying to assault me. I managed to outrun him from my school all the way home, having a moment where I nearly avoided him trying to crush me after i jumped over a junk couch someone in the neighborhood left out for trash collection to hide. If he landed on me in that very crucial moment, I bet I would have died from suffocation or just being crushed by someone 100+lbs heavier than me

Almost connected “two trucks” to my mother and dads room
OH GOD LMAO
That one with the person in the car who almost got hit by a bus. That was crazy, I'm glad they survived.
we were playing dodge ball in my tae kwon do academy and there were two teachers throwing the ball, anyway everyone ran to the other side of the room and looked scared while i looked confused, then it clicked to me, it was like i could sense my teacher yanking his hand to throw the ball and how the ball was leaving his hand and i felt like i could see from a third person perspective opened my third eye or some ultra instinct shit because i immidiately leaned forward like how you salute in martial arts and the ball completely missed me by slightly flying over my bent back to my peers who just looked at me shocked as did my teachers, i had risen above all for a moment achieving the so glorified forsight ability of the ancient grand elder martial artists and stood up straight with a grin on my face while everyone stopped the game for some moments, my teachers were proud to say the least
Woah that's so cool!!!
I think that was Clair sentinence or smth, great job!!!
That's fake bro. U most likely saw the hand in a motion about to throw the ball, and saw the ball in the corner of your eye. Nonetheless u have phenomenal reaction time.
@@IAmComicallyCartoonyYKnow that was my kid who made that. I work in velocity and angles for loads of tennis games. I basically prepare and analyse whether their machines are correctly showing the speed the ball travels. My biggest was a Wimbledon. I've basically analysed all the possible ways a human catches a ball to for baseball games so that I can get that km/hr to be correct. I can tell from the positioning he must of scene where the hands were facing. This allowed him to tell when to jump and doge. An phenomenal display either way of perfect skill
When I lived in Haiti, I was in school and my teacher said we don't have French class anymore because our teacher was absent (the French room is next to the outdoor cafeteria and the back gate on the other side of the soccer field. So we go back to class and we here a loud bang. Turns out a tear gas grenade was set of right next to the back gate in the same area where I had my class.

Me and my mom dodged one together kinda. My mom is a diabetic, and she has very bad lungs. She is a police officer and is retiring in 6 months. She was a police officer during 9/11 and she inhaled a lot of the smoke and it damaged her lungs. Anyway when she was giving birth to me, I was not ok. I was under weight and I was small. By my moms story they didn't think I was going to make it. I really don't know how I survived its still a mystery to this day. And now I'm very tall, and I'm still skinny tho, and I weigh average thankfully 😅
When I was a baby on my walker I managed to open the door net of my apartment (the regular door was open because of the heat), we live at the second floor of the building, I felt down the stairs without a scratch, my mom said that I didn't even cry, it was a miracle that I didn't broke anything or worse. That baby walker saved my life.
This helps my sympathy levels more than the therapy I had when I was younger. My mum thinks I am autistic but I am not diagnosed. Thank you.

My dad owned a construction company back in the day. Super small family affair. My sisters husband of that year decided he was king shit when it came to construction because his uncle (read father figure) was a very skilled carpenter. Dad hired him and he dropped a nine foot ply wood rectangle off a two story building while I was working shingle cleanup and fell standing up mere inches from my face. Turns out every thing he did needed to be redone by dad too
almost a year ago i was talking to one of my parents’ friends and he asked me if i talked in my sleep. my answer was “i don’t know, i never ask about it.” and then he gave an explanation about this story of a guy who said he didn’t talk in his sleep and his friend told him to take a nap. i was so close to being told to shut up by an elderly person, that would have been humiliating.
Reminds me of my English teacher. Dudes dad was abusive and a drunk, mother was a druggy. One day his dad was drinking and arguing with the mom. Dad got pissed and got a shotgun. My teacher at the time was 5 watching tv. Guy came in and out the gun to his head and pulled the trigger, the gun jammed. He is the most chill dude I have ever seen, would love to have him as a uncle!

I was in the kitchen making food at 10/11pm and dropped my glass(pint glass) onto the floor (I wasn’t wearing shoes). To this day I don’t know how, but before the glass hit the floor I leaped up directly on top of my chair and didn’t get a single shard of glass stuck in any part of my body
I was in a skatepark a few years back, I was at the top of a ramp waiting to some other kid to finish. He sliped in the skate causing him to almost falling forward, and I barely dodge the flying skateboard. That would have surely destroyed my nose, forehead, you name it. Also, I would have fall into the ground, most likely giving me a severe concusion. Man did I dodged quite the bullet there!
