Another gut feeling video, hope you enjoy it! Do you have any stories?
@@engie_neer About a year ago I was driving along a country road between my house and the downtown area where all the shops are, when this overly expensive and highly customized car roars up behind me and starts riding my tail. Speed limit is 45, and I'd been going 50, but with this guy on my rear I was going around 55. Still wasn't fast enough for him, as he decided to go around me and gun it.
Normally, I'd just let an asshole like him drive past me, no skin off my back, but that time I suddenly felt panicked, and slammed on the gas. I was neck and neck with him going 65 less than 10 seconds later, and barely 20 seconds after they attempted to pass me they slammed on their brakes because they were turning right. If I had let them get ahead of me I'd have rear ended them, because my brakes are not that great.

Sort of I guess
Basically my friend invited me to her dad’s house for a sleepover and I was very HYPED
Her dad said he had bought new sheets and stuff, but when I got there there was nothing new or anything. No sweets, no sleepover like things, but I thought it was ok because my friend was very excited and her other friend ( a boy, I was a girl (I’m non binary now)) was there so it is definitely fine right? Well it was dark in the house and smelly and dingy, and he wasn’t all that creepy but very friendly. I just burst into tears because I didn’t feel safe at all and when my mother picked me up she said she thought it was weird too. I don’t know if he was dangerous but it definitely felt like it.
Once me and my family went to a safari in south africa , so after a safari we went to enjoy a little swim my mom decided to go try the spa and my dad was reading a book about the wildlife my brother 12 at that time was playing by the empty pool , so right then i just look at the fence that keeps the animals outside and something in my head just screams gabon viper , so i just decide to check on my brother at that point i noticed something green moving near the pool i just rushed towards my brother and pushed him away then isaw a bright green snake about 30 to 40 cm from where my brother was , i instantly called the rangers who assured us it was a harmless snake but i was not entirely sure because they were extremely cautious with it ( in the end it was not a gabon viper , it might have been a black mamba or a innocent tree snake.
Ya my sister

Take a drink and have poison check by dude who gave me it. Pour a little in his glass and wait.

Hearing a male robot voice say "I'm a petite woman", made me chuckle
I expected him to say "I'm a potato woman". Don't know why lol
There's another channel that does this same sort of thing, but the voice is 10x deeper and less robotic, and the stories have animations. One of them he was voicing a pitiful 13 year old girl saying "who are you?😟" and it was hilarious

Thing is, I cannot tell the difference between a gut feeling or paranoia..
I relate.
night_creeps Sane.
Same. I try to tell the difference between anxiety and intuition, but it only makes it more confusing. Even with simple things. Making decisions is painful and idk why :/
For me, if I was thinking about it prior - like continuously thinking about if for 5-10 minutes then I consider it paranoia. If it’s extremely sudden, unbelievably strong and has nothing to do w the context of what’s happening but still makes sense (being home alone and getting the terrifying feeling that you’re not) it’s a gut feeling. Paranoia can make you sick but it might take a few minutes of obsessively thinking about it to get to that point. Gut feelings take over your deepest instincts in a split second and it’s so strong it’ll trigger your fight or flight/critical thinking. It’ll bring up shit you didn’t even know you knew like what gas smells like even if you’ve never smelled it. It’s almost like spidey-sense it’s sudden and gets to the point. If you’re in a house w a robber, the only thing you can think is “GET OUT AND GET OUT NOW”
For me, it's always been anxiety tells me something is dangerous, my gut tells me I'm in danger.
My grandpa dreamed 2 guys killed his family . The next day , working the field 2 guys asked for food and shelter . Grandpa turned them away . They killed some people at a nearby farm . That's all I remember my mom telling us . I don't feel anyone else in the fam , has any e.s.p. , or anything like that . True story . Farm near Kenora , Sask ., circa 1935 -1940 .

judging by these stories, it is my belief i was correct in telling my sister to always carry a knife.
If possible, get a gun. A knife is bad if the assailant is physically more powerful as it can be taken and used against you.
A gun, especially with training, can be drawn and used before most assailants can do anything.
It's illegal in my country to carry guns or knifes; but it is also a country where there is a murder/rape-murder of a female every 13 hours. My backpack is basically an armery. My keychain is a cat shaped brass knuckle, the ears of the cat are basically two knifes.
My backpack as a pendant that looks like a lipstick but it's pepper spray and I also have a comb that it's a knife inside. Luckily i haven't used any of it, but it has been pretty fucking close

I always wondered what would happen if you see someone full speed running towards you but instead of running the opposite direction, you run full speed at the person??
if your intimidation stat is high or if you have a weapon / an object intimidating enough to that person, they'll run away, otherwise you're screwed in more ways then one
@@Niiue I'm pretty sure it's legal to carry swords in Texas, if you do a 180 and stare the guy down while holding a short sword odds are they'll bolt
General Rommel why did I laugh reading this comment. I’m just imagining some dude running at you Naruto style and then you turning around with a sword staring them down as they slowly start backing away.

A gut feeling saved me from getting killed by a rockslide.
My friends and I were planning on climbing a mountain but when we git at the foot of the mountain i told my friends that we probably shouldn't do it. Now my friends learned to trust my gut feelings because I'm usually right,we ended up staying at the foot of the mountain before my one friend's boyfriend came to pick us up.
We went to go get lunch and as we were eating I got a notification on my phone by the company what schedules the mountain climbing that all schedules will be delayed due to a massive rockslide,on the path me and my friends would've taken.
:o
Okay, besides the bad event,
that's so cool! (Besides the bad event, that's of course terrible)
Damn... Good idea to stay at the base!
When I was a kid I really didn’t like my aunt’s boyfriend and was actually upset when I found out they were getting married. Years later he’s physically, emotionally and verbally abusive, an alcoholic who has caused her to relapse on more than one occasion, and every time she’s going to leave him he gets her pregnant (they have 5 kids now). Listen to the kids in your life when they don’t like someone.
Yo did she leave him
I have two stories for you guys.
1- I was driving out of town with my mom so we could get a few groceries, it was in the middle of winter so the roads where slippery.
We where almost at an intersection and I got the feeling when the light was yellow so my mom rushed through it. And I’m lucky we did because not even 5 minutes later a car accident happened at the same intersection. Three cars where involved and everyone was fine but it still scares me.
2- It was late at night, I’d say 2:00 am and I was on my iPad and my cat wanted into my room so I opened my door and she came in. I layed back down and everything was fine and then I got the gut feeling. So I sat up and looked at my cat choking on a hoodie string that I pulled out. I got out of bed and pulled it out and she had swallowed half of the string. I know these stories aren’t really huge and scary but they were to me...
@justarandomperson we're'stve
I have 17 cats and the one of the string actually hits hard
@@assrash2312 17 cats my dude?
@@evieinfinite Yes . . .

@@assrash2312 damn that's really nice of you to do I love cats but unfortunately don't have one (parents won't allow)
Honestly, I'm suspicious of everyone
We with everyone i dont know in the elevator espesially when im alone i hold on tightly ready to stirke to what ever is in my hand just incase.
That's why you should always observe as much as you can about anyone you see. It's possible you notice something odd and important
That's good, I trust people and it got me f up so now I'm reading this type of experiences to learn to be more observant and suspect everyone.

@@galaxywolf8444 why
My friend and I were at an after school club and we were eating some snacks that were given to us. She picked up some fruit snacks and just as she was about to eat one I got a really bad feeling. I asked her if she had ever had them before and she said no. I asked her to read the ingredients on the back of the package and it turns out that if she would've eaten them she would've had an allergic reaction.
Wow that’s great
No sarcasm
When I was like 10 I used to walk to a park that was close to my house, one day I didn't feel safe so I walked back home. That same day a kid got kidnapped at that park.
When I was like 8 my family was driving down to Florida on I-95, we're driving in the middle lane when my mom quickly switched to the left lane. No blinker, really jerky merge. Shes usually a great driver. We were next to a big semi that was in the right lane. The car that was behind us starts speeding up and when its next to the semi, the semi loses control and swerves into the middle lane and nails the car. We were close enough to hear the crunching metal. It was terrifying. Never found out if that driver was okay but I doubt it.
Andrew T wow.. shout out to your mother and her instincts man!!
Stay away from semis.. always. Especially when those meatheads decide they're going to stay in the left lane. The worst thing I've seen are speeding triple trailers.. absolutely reckless drivers who should know better.
Bruh that sounds like some need for speed shit when your outrunning the cops in a race and make people crash
I'm glad you're okay, at least.
Not mine, but a friend of my mother. She saw a guy who had a broken leg struggling with an armload of stuff. She went to help him but then she had this feeling something was not right. She was looking for some way to get out of it without being rude, then her boyfriend (later her husband) showed up. When that happened the guy got kind of nervous, but they ended up helping the guy and they went there separate ways.
She forgot about it until a few weeks later. The police had just arrested a serial killer, Ted Bundy. And she realized it was the guy with the broken leg.
You brain picks up a lot more sensory information than you are consciously aware of. That "gut feeling" doesn't really have much to do with your guts, it's your subconscious mind yelling at you "danger danger danger."
What is actually happening is you are having an automatic reaction, getting your body ready to fight or flee, even before you know you are in danger.
Trust your gut, even if it means being rude. You can get over being rude, but it your gut is right, it could just save your life.
It is well established in law, in an emergency you can legally break most laws. Besides, rudeness is hardly ever illegal in any case.
Oh fuck
Holy... I'm so glad she and her boyfriend were okay. Bundy was no joke.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
I gotta uneasy feeling now
What about you?...
Yeah too
I read that and... Felt really uneasy...uhhhh
Yes ;-;
And I soon have school, yay
Nah too many of those saving me already.
You know... My obsession for these kind of videos might probably end up with me posting this on reddit and me being happy for myself
All of these are bizarre, and I've heard my fair share of guys getting mad when rejected, but the story at 8:33 blew me away. WTF?
It happened to me once but it was my girlfriend. Done crazy dude Jules get I got stabbed through the gut to save her I heat the crap out of him. I lost a good amount of blood I blacked out when I woke up I was hooked up to a blood bag. I had a hazy memorie because I had a conclusion. The gut I beat up was in a coma for a day as I woke up he did. Ironicly we were beside each other I got up to bear him to death but was stoped because I was reminded of my stiches good memorie.
Not trying to justify it, because it’s definitely wrong, but I can understand why some guys would get mad or violent after being rejected so many times. Look at the dating scene, you hardly ever have women actually go up to guys and say they want to hang out or date or whatever when they’re into someone, they usually sit back and wait for the guys to come to them so they can choose or reject them. It’s a lot less effort and a lot less damaging to their self-esteem. Guys are often pressured or feel obligated to make the first move and you’re definitely going to have the awkward guys and the ones that are straight up douchebags about it, but regardless of how they are, it taking a lot of psyching yourself up and confidence building for a guy to initiate that interaction, and when he is inevitably rejected by multiple women, his self-esteem could easily just go to shit. Mix that with a lack of anyone caring and possible mental instability for someone like belt boy there, and yeah, I can see why he’d get violent. It’s not the woman’s fault he got violent, and the rejection isn’t really his fault either, it’s the way he chose to deal with rejection that’s the problem. I believe if we just cared a little more about the _mentally stable_ guys that get rejected instead of people playing it for laughs all the time, we might see less maniacs like that guy.
Drunk people do stupid shit.
Rugal Bernstein don’t try to justify it he tried to strangle her
Piggies YUM YUM BACON so... did you just ignore the entire comment then? I literally said I wasn’t justifying it and he was wrong for his actions. I can acknowledge the reason for the problem without condoning it, you know. If we didn’t, bad things would never get fixed.
One me and my family were shopping and walking around and in one of the isles I saw this cute little kid looking at toys I noticed that he wasn't with his parents but I dimissed the thought and a few minutes later a I saw the same kid walking around by himself again and he looked a little worried. I told my parents but they said it was probably nothing. Right as we were about to leave I notice him AGAIN crying, I told my parents and they said if you really think he lost then you may go talk to him. I walked up to him and asked him if he was okay and he tried to walk away from me so my dad went and talked to him. Turns out he was lost and we took him to the front desk and we were about to leave again and I watched him run to his family with the happiest face.
Aw, the one sweet and death-less gut instinct story in a million horrible ones. That tiny percentage of anecdotes that will give you faith in humanity again after reading literally any of the other stories on the video/comment section. It's a good thing that for every million people who attempt rape, murder, robbery, abduction etc, there will always be at least one person like you who would go out of their way to help a lost little boy and at least one little boy who doesn't get lost.
I remember a very scary case for me.
One day, I was just at the gas station with my mother (I was about 10-11) and a dude walks up to my mom and starts talking to her. She thought nothing of it, but I locked the doors to the car and right as I did, the dude knocked over my mother and tried to open the car door, presumably to steal it. I wonder what would've happened if I didn't lock the door.
holy shit what happened after that
If it required keys you’d have been fine
I have a simpler story but it was my mother I live in mi right now and my mother was at a store I don’t which one and my yungest sister was with her she had a awful gut moment and she saw two guys and lucky she knows that sex afenders and the whole shabang that they travel in pairs and she watched them as she gets near the car the has her keys in her hand to stand them if they got close and calls at them to go away and they do and when she got home she tells my family about it this was about a year or two ago
Im gay
elitethehunter dang that grammar and spelling though
I was in a storm one day it look liked a normal rainstorm so I'm walking about one block from my house and was thinking it would be a bad experience if a tree came down on me. This thought creeped me out so I went slower. I was right in front of a tree so close that when lightning struck I could feel the heat of the fire when it fell. Im so glad I slowed down
I had sort of a similar experience, one time my friend and I were walking back from the gas station, and all of a sudden this car comes speeding by, it was white and had black tinted windows and it just gave me a bad vibe. I turned to my friend and say "Wow, that was a sketchy looking car" and as soon as I say that it turns around and comes speeding back toward us and as soon as we saw that we started walking faster, but we had one more road to cross before we got to her house, so the car started to swearve to cut off and that's when we broke into a dead sprint
@Alaina Ashburn What do you think was the driver's intention? Kidnapping?
Indy Jones I'm not quite sure, but it still scared my friend and I 😂
I can imagine the scene of your brain trying to subconsciously warn you like that, it's fascinating.
And since I'm a goofball my perception of the scene is funny to me.
To this day they are searching for the final member of their go karting race club.
My family has two cats, one male and one female.
My dad had woken up early, and was getting ready when our male cat started meowing really loudly. Like, ear-damagingly loud. So he asks the cat, "What's wrong?" And the male began going downstairs. My dad began to follow him until they reached the bottom level. When they were there, the male cat stopped meowing and stood beside the front door. It was wide open, and had been that way ALL NIGHT. Someone had forgotten to close it. Our female cat was right outside the front door. We brought her inside, and she hid for the rest of the day. If it hadn't been for the male cat, I might've never seen her again. Since then, anytime I leave the house, I make sure I close and lock the door.
I think she stood there to guard the house perhaps
With the beginning sentence I thought this story would go a different way😂
My cats live in my garage and they spend most of there life outside, they are all smart enough to fight of other cats and even big dogs, they've never ran away and sometimes they even visit my neighbours

Not that big of a deal but, like 10 minutes ago I had a weird feeling to go check on my dog and saw him eating something in the mudroom. Not unusual, we keep his food out 24/7 in there, but it just didn't feel right, so I pried his mouth open and made him gag to spit whatever it was out. Turns out he was chewing on and trying to swallow a huge ball of dried liquid latex I had somehow missed during my clean up from my painting room, so thanks gut for saving my dogs life a 2nd time.
(First time he ate a crap ton of dark chocolate, and he's a small dog so it was about twice the lethal dose, my dad said he'd be fine and I was overreacting, I drove him to the emergency vet anyways and turns out he would've died if I hadn't taken him)
why doggos no can eat chocolate
can they eat grapes or you no microwave grapes
So this is the power of ultra instinct? Lmaoooo I died at that part
one time when i was in 5th or 6th grade (11 or 12) i was walking home with my friend and she went to her house and i continued my walk. i saw a man was maybe following me, but he was far away enough that i wasn't worried. i tried going around the block and back, he went the same way. i now knew he was definetly following me. i crossed the huge intersection and waited for my tram. the tram arrived and just as the doors were about to close, i hopped on and he didn't manage to do the same in time.
a couple days later a 11 year old girl was taken by a man in front of the school next to mine.
Not my story, but my brother, our friend, and I were playing hide and seek around the corners of our friend's grandma's house. Our friend was it and my brother was on the sidewalk in front of the grandma's house and I was hiding behind the grandma's car watching through the windows. Our friend comes running around the corner and tells us how when he was looking for us, he had a feeling so he turned around and saw a man in a business suit (think like a man as a rich company owner) who had black shoes and a watch walking behind him. He also noticed that on the other side of the road there was a somewhat used car driving slowly with the driver watching him and the man. He suddenly had the instinct to run and when he did, the man behind him did aswell. He was halfway around the corner of the block, and not to be mean, was a little overweight, but he was running for his life and when my brother and I saw him turn the corner, we first calmed him because he was on the brink of having a panic attack, then had him tell us what happened, then we managed to get him to go back around the corner with us beside him, (and my brother and I were both older than him, and even though I was older, we were both 5,5, so we kept our friend between us) we rounded the corner but there was no car and no person. It's a story i still tell but not many people believe that our friend was telling the truth because obviously when we have to calm our friend from a panic attack, it's not true (and our friend was a TERRIBLE actor)
Dam bless him he got lucky. I wouldn't lie about something like that as a child so i would believe him because it sounds like a kidnapping situation. They must of dipped right away when they saw him turn the corner. These situations are scary I'm glad he was able to get away.
@@pixiefairy0455 thank you and he was overweight (again, not trying to be mean) and only 7 or 8 at the time, but he couldve looked 9 or 10 but the fact that he made it around the block and managed to escape is amazing. He was also crying and he doesn't cry often, he usually would put on a brave face and deal with it. We spent about 5 minutes trying to get him to go back with us which is probably how they got away.
I can never tell if it's my 'gut feeling' or just anxiety
Sometimes it's best to listen to the anxiety
X2
when it is your gut feeling you will feel it in your gut. hence the name.
i dont know if its intuition or the bacteria in your gut trying to tell you your in danger or run or dont do this or do that because they want to live.
ive only had it once before. but its hard to describe. a pit in your stomach is not descriptive enough . its unlike anything you feel normally and when you feel it you just know and try to listen to it
I have one:
So when i was about 13 i went to a camp, in this camp i had 4/5 other people in my group and we had 2 camp councilors. One day our 2 councilors needed a break so during the time we were supposed to go swimming they left us with the councilors of another group at the camp, i felt a bit uneasy because our councilors werent there though i knew why, i just felt like something was gonna happen. Anyway me and 2 other girls were jumping from the diving board and it got to the topic of seizures. One girl said she had them but very very rarely. We thought nothing of it since she said she only had maybe 2 in ever. A few minutes later i notice how quiet she was being, i asked if she was ok and she nodded. I felt something was up. Like i said i was 13 and this girl was 15/16 at the time so i didn't think i could do anything but i grabbed her and swam to the side of the pool and told her to stay there while i went and told a councilor to keep an eye on her and told them about how she was behaving. About a few minutes later a few girls walked over to see if she was ok and her eyes were in the back of her head and she was convulsing, she was having a seizure. The councilors called the paramedics and she was taken away on an ambulance. She ended up being ok but afterwards while i was having a panic attack a councilor came over and calmed me down and told me the girl was fine, she said if i hadn't swam her to the edge of the pool or told anyone she would've most likely drowned and died. I didn't realize the stakes at the moment but after a year or two i realized how bad it could have been. Im extremely thankful i listened to my gut
I was out hiking with my friend at night, maybe like 9:30, and we were walking up this small mountain right near our houses and she goes “I wonder if there are many mountain lions out here, haha.” I immediately got a really bad feeling and said that we should go back. She said I was being dramatic, but eventually agreed to go back home. I looked at the neighborhood email the next morning and someone said that they had found their dog killed by a mountain lion... right near where we were hiking. Probably nothing would have happened but scary nonetheless.
@The Pickle Pals most cats will only attack once you show them your back, thats why people actually use masks with eyes painted on the back of the head, so they dont get attacked by tigers
Who the fuck goes hiking at night?

My brother was walking home when he noticed someone in a cap behind him, following his walking path. Keep in mind, this was a large set of stores and a large parking lot during the day. My brother's gut and his military training told him this guy was going to mess with him. He put his hands hanging off the waist of his pants as he walked and the guy was still following. He then reached under his jacket and let a latch click loudly on his conceal carry. The dude ran off immediately.
Even if my brother didn't have his weapon, the guy wouldn't have fared well trying to attack the brick wall that is my brother.
Once, I was running errands and was crossing the street with multiple bags in my arms (which made it difficult to move). A group of people were gathering, waiting for the light to turn into a green pedestrian. As I was waiting, I noticed a petite girl wearing the generic gothic clothing. Pretty normal, so I didn’t pay much attention to her. But every time I looked away, my stomach twisted into knots and red flags flew in my head. Luckily, nothing happened, but when I got home and saw the news, there was the arrest of the same girl, who’d been charged of arson and a murder.
It still gives me chills to think that I’d been standing next to an arsonist and a murderer.
What was her name?
I saw a bunch of replies on some comments warning people to be careful when carrying a knife, because it can be used against them. To make sure that doesn't happen, do some hand exercises (if you don't want to or can't afford professional training). For ex. find a foam ball (or one of those donut shaped things) and squeeze it. Hold for like 15 sec., then relax for 10 sec. Repeat as many times as you want. If you do this regularly, you should be able to get a nice grip on things and build enough strength too. Hope I helped someone ❤

Most people’s gut instinct:”your in danger”
Them:”nah, I’m safe”
*proceeds to die*
-
Gut feeling:”your completely safe.”
Me:”I’m still gonna watch my back.” *Nothing happens.*
I think it really depends on the situation. If you're just skimming through a novel in a noisy bookstore, you'll probably ignore your gut feeling that something's wrong, but if you're alone at a bus stop on an empty street at night and the bus is late you'll probably start feeling jumpy even if your instincts tell you you're safe.

When my mom was In High school she lived in Hawaii, one night she’s swimming out late really far out in the water and it dark out so the water is pitch black and she can’t see a thing beneath her. A second later she said she got a feeling of something that was telling her to “start swimming as fast as you can and don’t stop”. She started swimming back to land as fast as she could with the feeling telling her not to look back and to keep swimming as fast as she could, she got back to land soon enough and never figured out what was in the water with her that night.
Just reading this puts me very nervous, being in the ocean like that is my worst nighmare
it was probably that lil punk ass stingray that killed Steve Irwin🤪
not so fun fact sharks usually feed when its night so i think it was a shark in the water w her...
Not me but my father.
One night we were going to a restaurant late at night. Empity streets. My dad suddenly steps on the breaks and, a second later, two other cars zoomed by. If he didn't break there, we would have died.

My cousin and I don’t see each other that often, but last year we got to hang out for a week over christmas. a couple days after christmas, she was going to leave the next day. being the teenagers we are, we decided to celebrate before she leaves. we stay up until like 4 am. do face masks, eat snacks, etc. we decided to sneak out my back door. in the middle of December in northern virginia. we put on coats and boots and walked around my neighborhood to the park. i had an uneasy feeling but ignored it. we hung out for a bit on the swings and slides, listening to music, when the feeling suddenly got way worse. i turned off my music, and told my cousin we should head back. we started walking back. we were maybe a block away from my house when we heard someone screaming from where we were just at the park. it was definitely a women. an ear piercing scream. i texted a bunch of my friends, and my cousin and i started running. we got close to my house and the screaming suddenly stopped. we run back in through my back door. i don’t know if it was a bird or someone was being murdered but i’m glad we left when we did
There was a mall (still is) right next to my highschool. I had supplementary classes an hour after school ended and because my house was really far away, I used to go to the mall to get lunch during that time. The mall is small and not at all crowded. This one time, while on the way out of the mall, a guy bumped into but weirdly enough, he tried to hold my hand when he bumped. I thought he was some kind of pervert and turned around, completely ready to tell him off when his face just made my mind go blank. He was looking at me emotionlessly and with unblinking eyes. Something seemed extremely off and I just gave him an annoyed glare and started going to class. I turned around once and saw that he was following me. My instinct told me to go back to school instead of the tuition hall which was much further away. So i did. After going in, I turned around and saw him standing outside the gate, staring at me, unblinking. I told my teacher about it and the guard at the gate was informed but by then, he was gone.
Idk what was his deal or if he did anything but I wasn't about to wait around and find out.
To this day, thinking about it freaks me out.
Literally anytime I say "Cops are going to show up." They show up within 5-10 mins. Honestly was kinda shitty luck. On one hand, I never got caught doing anything. But at the same time if you leave before the cops come EVERYTIME people start to think your the one calling! This is in regards to house parties, fights ect.
Tyler Clark ,holy crap as I was reading this my tv shoe started talking about cops
If something seems off, get into a public visible place, get attention of a potential witness (through a phone or someone passing by), and then call the police once you're out of immediate danger. Seriously, it's better to have a possibly awkward encounter with the police than to become a victim, anyone should understand that.
I have a gut feeling experience. Me and my friends were heading home after school on the buses, it was me and three other girls around my age. There was a guy sitting behind us who had blood above his eyebrow and looked like he had been in a fight. He starts calling me and my friends names likes faggots and cabbage patch kids. We instantly felt off about this guy so when me and my friends stop came my other two friends who would usually stay on the bus got off with us and we booked it into the train station. The guy followed us and he definitely looked like he was gonna pull something out on us. He went after one of my friends who had split up from the group. Me and the other two who were there went CRAZY looking for her. She was smart and once she got up the steps she put her phone on silent so the guy wouldn't hear if her phone went off. She went up to a woman in complete panic mode and told her to call the police. Eventually me and the other two girls I was with find her and we also alert the train station employee to call the police. We were all hysterical and crying, but we were happy she didn't get hurt. They never found that guy, but every time we go into that train station now there are always police officers on duty.
This is like the creepiest version of “my spider senses are tingling”
If you’re ever uncomfortable with some shady person always be sure to look them dead in the eyes. Petty robbery or assault might not be prevented but bigger threats will always try for easy targets. You looking straight at their face, facing them head on or carrying anything you can fight back with could save your life. (ex. umbrellas are excellent for this, hold them by the stick with the curved handle in front of you.)
Sometimes NOT looking them in the eye helps, like with the story about the man on the porch. The two criminals were all about whether he saw anything...and he was unconfrontational, looking away, said he didn't see anything. In that kind of case, acting aloof and not acting like you're ID'ing their faces is better. (But still sneak a good look at them if you can.)
Also, looking straight ahead and being focused on where you're headed is important. Looking around at people is a sign of fear, and it can be read.
When I was around 12 I was on a field trip and we were all allowed to walk around by ourselves. Three people stopped (in their early 20s) and asked if I would take a picture with them. I said yes because I didn't think anything of it. Then they started asking me if I would walk with them and I said no because I was on a field trip and couldn't leave with a stranger. They began getting angry and started saying that I'd be fine and that they would buy me food. I said no and booked it for my chaperone. It still freaks me out to know that they could've hurt me if I had said yes.
I snuck into a cinema with my friends to watch a movie and then 5 minutes into the movie my “gut feeling” kicked in and I left. When I left my friends got caught by security guard(s) and got in trouble.
Edit: I know it’s not that extreme or even extreme but my gut feeling still saved me from getting in trouble by security guards or maybe even the police
Turning down a job for Brewdog, a Scottish brewery that now also operates from here in Ohio. After I got the offer, my stomach started churning like a Mennonite behind schedule, so I stuck with my current employer. Turns out they're a super shady company that has been accused several times of stealing ideas and has lost a ton of respect in the craft beer world as of late.
And their products are just OK.
I live in Ohio as well, Columbus.

When my youngest was a baby we were heading home along a path that borders the river and I've walked that way home many, many times. It was dusk but not dark when, from the other direction a guy around 20 years old biked passed us. This is a popular cycle route but this guy made me feel really uncomfortable. I turned around to see him stop his bike and just sort of do wheelies. I continued on walking as quickly as possible with a pushchair when he biked back past me. Now I could see the metal railing exit at the end of the river path. Next to these were some bushes and the path led to the bridge I needed to cross. He was lurking just behind the bushes so at this point I stopped and looked around for other people but the only other person was on the opposite riverbank. I then decided I needed to phone my hubby and get him to come and meet me so when there plenty of cars going over the bridge I walked out on the pedestrian path to the middle of the bridge and called my husband. I saw the guy peeking around the bush and when he saw me on the phone and standing out in the open he made off really quickly on his bike. I was shaking even though nothing had actually happened but from the first second I saw this guy I felt scared. There's an area I have to walk that is shielded from the road and out of view to anyone and I dread to think what may have happened if I hadn't trusted my gut! I've never seen him since.
I just got a Reddit ad before the video. Coincidence????
*I THINK NOT*
so my mom told me this story when i was 14:
when i was 2, my mom and I visited a hotel in morocco. it was normal and everything but at two A.M i just started crying loudly. my mom puts me to sleep again but then suddenly gets this weird gut feeling telling her to leave the hotel. she took me and went to a grocery store across the street. about 5 min later, she hears an incredibly loud boom. turns out a terrorist group blew up the restaurant right under our hotel and the whole building broke down. 27 died that day. so close and it could have been 29.
I had this bad feeling slowly creep up on me that something wasn’t right last march, i ignored it until November because it was just a small feeling of something not being right. I developed severe anxiety over the course of those months and in November i finally got a massive, overwhelming feeling of something not being right. I asked my mum to take me to the gp because i thought something wasn’t right, she refused and after days of practically begging her to take me, we went, the physical exam turned out fine but the bloods showed signs of infection and she said, just to be safe, go to the ER. We went and after an xray, they found i had a massive 9cm lump in my chest and deduced i had lymphoma, it was hitting my lungs and heart and i would have been dead in a month from not being able to breathe
This one time I have a guy trying to borrow my bike so they can get a PS2 Game Disc back home. I told him no because I was a snob who wouldn't let anyone use my thing but when they approach my friend I have this weird feelings because he keep pushing him to lend his bike to him. I tell him don't but he says it's alright. The guy never come back.
Imagine turning around and seeing some dood naruto running at you and your mum awnsers then you see him change his disguise to some friendly man.

when i was a freshman in high school there was a party hosted by a school club that my friend and i were going to go to, but i got grounded a few days before the party and couldnt go. my friend went without me. she was texting me during the party and all of a sudden started sending me a bunch of texts at a time w really generic shit like "hahaha" "yeah" "no i totally get that" "like" "thats super rad dude" and all of a sudden i get this dreadful feeling. i went into my parents bedroom immediately and told my mom that i didnt know what was going on but something was wrong and we need to pick her up from that party immediately. since i had planned on going i had the info for where it was. we headed over there and got her out and it turns out there was a guy there who wasnt in the club (he was a members boyfriend's brother) and he started touching her without her consent. she had texted that shit bc he started looking over her shoulder and reading her texts, so she texted enough to clear my words from the screen. she was hiding in the bathroom when i got there on the verge of tears. ive always kinda blamed myself for not being there with her to prevent that but im glad i was able to get her out of there before things got worse.
Was once I was swimming in my by myself while my 1 year sister was on the pool deck scooping water from a toy cup into a little plastic container she had next to her, i was just diving under water to fetch those little toys you throw that sink to the bottom. And at one point I went under to find one of the little toys and my gut told me to go up and check on my little sister even though I could've stayed under water for a solid 30 more seconds, I went up to see my little sister no longer on the deck and I looked down and saw her flailing under the water.i hadn't heard a splash or anything. (the pool water wasn't completely clear so if she had sunk to the bottom I most likely wouldn't of seen her) thankfully she had just fallen in and she had only been in the water for 3 seconds maybe but I grabbed her and pulled out of the water before any serious harm was done.
this is why I don't go outside

One day i woke up, and it didn't feel right, i thought it was nothing, so i hoped onto my phone and tapped on discord, went onto a specific server where like 10+ people had their profile pictures as a ribbon
I noticed i have a announcement ping.
Turns out a close friend of mine on discord took his own life
I'll miss you Choco.

And he direct messaged me on discord about killing himself.

This happed this not long ago to me, so one day I went shopping with my brothers and mother in our local grocery store, since I was and still am a bit young I liked looking around at my surroundings and the different types of food there was which was making me slow down behind everyone causing my siblings and mother to walk ahead of me Keep in mind my mother was now two aisle's away from me, I turned around and noticed this Indian man was following me around (there wasn't much people in the aisle we were in) he noticed that I saw him so he faked he was looking for groceries himself, my gut instinct just told me to hurry and go to my mum. I quickly hurried my pace and when I got to my mum i stood behind her, the man ended up following me to that aisle and when he saw I was with my mum he quickly hurried away. Told my mum about what happened, checked the stall he had ran through but he was gone. Thank god I noticed he was following me or else who knows what would've happened.

I once had a dream that my brother died, no kids need told me how, that day when I was coming back from school we were on an intersection and I got the same feeling from when my lungs almost collapsed the feeling was just "fuck" so I pulled my brother on the side of the white lines near me and you just hear an suv speed pars me 70 miles an hour right where my brother was
My high school spanish teacher once told us a story like this
He was going to doing a college course in Spain, while his wife and daughter stayed at home in America. One day, he gets this feeling "i need to go home now" even though the class was still going. So he flies all the way home and surprises his wife. She was like "im glad to see you, but why are you here?" and he was asking himself the same question, doubting his gut feeling. Nothing seems wrong at home. But he doesn't fly back to Spain.
Then, that night, him and his wife were getting ready for bed, and their little daughter had decided to sleep in their bed with them that night. Then, the daughter notices that she forgot to bring her doll/stuffed animal, and she wont go to sleep without it. So she goes around the house looking for it. But whenever she would walk by her room (the door was closed), she would just stop in from of the door without opening it, and then change her mind and look somewhere else. Eventually my spanish teacher sees light under the daughter's door frame, so he figured his daughter had went in there and forgot to turn the lights off, but when he opens the door, he sees a man in the room, probably looking for things to steal. When the guy sees my spanish teacher, he leaves out the window, and they call the police. The police came and investigated and stuff, and they told my teacher that since the latch on the window was very old and hard to move/maneuver (or something like that) it was likely that the guy had been to the house multiple times already to quietly unlock/open the window latch so he could break in easily/ quietly.
My teacher said that the guy probably saw his wife and daughter alone and thought that there was no male there, so they would be easy targets, thus he was surprised when he saw my teacher there. He was scared what would have happened if his daughter or his wife had been the one to find him instead, and he was so glad that he dropped everything and flew home.
So I got the story I was told awhile back completely wrong turns out it wasn’t the jack that gave out while my uncle was taking a beer brake 😅 my mom said while he got up to get a beer an old tree the (station wagon not truck )was parked under gave way and smashed the car. He had called a local San Antonio news station to share what happened but since it was in the 90s I’m having trouble finding anything 😯
wtf why doesn't put something like a stand underneath it and not rely on the jack to hold it up
GAV925 so I saw your comment and called my mom to ask 😓 I got the whole thing wrong it was an old tree that fell and smashed the vehicle & it wasn’t a truck but a station wagon 😅 he had called a local San Antonio news station to tell what happened but it was in the 90s so I’m still trying to find it

When I was younger, about 5, I noticed something bright in the microwave. My brother had put a bag of buns, tied with a twist tie into the microwave. The metal in the twist tie caught on fire. I opened the microwave, after contemplating whether I should get somebody, and blew it out. My mother was downstairs, and my brother was somewhere, not supervising the buns. I told mom about it, and accidently got my brother in trouble.
My brother was probably 16, or something.
Anyway, i`m glad I didn`t have the memory of a goldfish, and forgot to tell my mom about it if I didn`t blow it out. Leaving it could`ve started a fire.
Omg it's the first time I have a story! So my brother and I were at a store when we were little (I'm the middle one), and we were playing with the switches that were there. Suddenly a man comes way to close and starts playing with the switches with us and kind of sign us to come with him, and I just ran back to my mom grabing my brother's arms.
I just love these gut feeling stories!

When i lived in phoenix arizona i took my stepkids to the mall to meet their friends. One of their friends was waiting for us on a bench next to the entrance and called us, saying she had a bad feeling abo it some guy. We met up and laughed it off, but i started to get a bad feeling about it. When we reached the food court, she pointed him out. He was wearing a baseball cap hiding most of his face and had 2 backpacks with him. I started to feel even worse and told them we needed to leave. As we were leaving, some cops apprehended him and he went with no struggle. Turns out he had a pistol and some bomb-like devices in those backpacks. Always trust ur gut feeling
These videos/reddit posts have probably saved someone’s life. Keep posting them
I came home from high school and I was washing my hands when I had this weird feeling in my head (like it was getting hot) and my brain was telling me lightning was gonna strike any second. I quickly switched off the water and covered my ears and surely enough there was a thunderbolt right outside the window (covering my ears didn't do much and I still jumped from being scared lol). Had I not switched off the water, I may not be here today O_o
There was this garden behind a restaurant I was at, and a very cute puppy sitting in it. I petted him for a bit then followed him as he walked towards a tree. As we neared the tree, I got this weird stay away kind of feeling, something didn't seem right. I start to back away and a split second later, a giant German Shepard comes sprinting at me from behind the tree. I ran away as fast as I could. He was attached to the tree by a chain , and the chain held him back just as he snapped his jaws millimeters away from where my leg would have been if I hadn't started to back away when I got the feeling.
the music is so... right for this video. its amazing how a simple choice of music can change the overall outcome which was me not going to sleep
This happened just about a month ago
I usually walk home with a friend from school. My house is little over a mile
One day my friend was sick so I had to walk home by myself I usually listen to music.
I was about half way there and I got a huge stout ache it felt like I just got kicked in the stomach it was telling me “take out your headphones and turn around” And i did so
There were 2 people a women and a man
They were pretty sketchy
They both say “Hi” and I continue to walk without headphones My pace quickens and so does theres
I was soon in my neighborhood With them still following my Stomach started hurting even more
I bolt
It was painful but That was probably the fastest I’ve ever ran with them following me
I see one of my neighbors and yell
“Hey Mom!!”
She immediately knew. she saved my life
A few days later two girls from my school were r*ped by them
I love listening to these gut feeling stories they’re so interesting :D
I’m in school currently and there is a teacher that just seems off generally. Like he will put his hand on my shoulder and say “so, how are you” and then stares and smiles at me for ages. Then moves away. Creepy

Mad respect to all these people for having accurate intuition-my “gut feeling” is always wrong about everything, both good and bad. I even took a job that my gut instinct was right about the first time-had a bad feeling, ghosted by the boss, thought “ehh why not try again” 6 years later and... well, it was the most toxic job I’d ever had, but I made a great friend out of it, so...? Idk man.

The other night at work I was outside waiting for my ride. It was around 11pm. A young man in his 20s wondered up wearing only shorts, not even shoes. He was drenched in sweat and he was falling around, clearly on something. He asked me for my drink I had and poured it all over the street and then asked for help. I told him I would go get my manager but he ran off when she came out. I stupidly decided it was a good idea to stay outside but just stand by the doors incase he showed back up. I was on my phone and looking up often to make sure he wasn’t around. Suddenly I got a really bad feeling and when I glanced up, out of nowhere he comes running toward me, misses me and runs straight into the door. I freaked and ran around the side of the building opposite him. I don’t know why I didn’t just try to get past him and back inside but my brain was just like nope, get as far away as possible. Someone had locked the side doors early so I couldn’t get in. It was very dark on this side of the building and there was nobody around. I thought for sure I was doomed. Two guys ended up driving by and asked if I was okay. I guess they saw what happened. They said the shirtless man was looking for me. I explained everything and they stayed and watched so I could go back to the front and get inside. At this point he was collapsed inside the front of the building and my manager ended up calling the cops. Haven’t seen him sense.
The last story rlly hits close to home and worries me. My 7 y/o nephew likes to wander off by himself without asking anyone and will talk to anyone like literally anyone and when I tell him not to he whips his head around and gives me an angry expression. To give you an idea about what this kid is like he is very impressionable and tends to follow me if I'm walking with my mom he will try to walk in front of me if I'm walking in front of them he'll try to speed up to me if I stop hell stop with me in stead of going back to his grandma and will cry if he cant find his charger for his phone and switch and you went let him use yous. He also has no problem asking personal questions (although he's 7 he should know what boundaries are. For example he once asked a woman in church why her voice was so deep, He begged a Deacon in church for money to get food from the vending machine, asked a random kid he was on the elevator if he could play with their switch will tell them how to play their game and "tips" on how to play it. He will litterally talk to the sketchiest person you can imagine like a sex offender, drug dealer, bestiality looking person. So the fact that he will talk to anyone rlly scares me and he doesn't understand how dangerous this is despite how many times I tell him not to he sees me as being a helicopter aunt in this case despite me just trying to look out for him.
Glad to discover this channel.

This was when I was still in 5th grade when me and friends was waiting for our parents to pick us up or walk home together we're just joking around infront of the school gate and one of my friend was playing around on the middle of the street there was no Vehicle at all but idk it's not my guts or feeling it's my hearing and the ground I was hearing a motorcycle going fast it was still far away but i know the person was in a hurry and really gassing the motorcycle and out of nowhere when my friends was laughing the motorcycle was literally infront of my friend but I scream "RUN!!!" Good thing he react and move to the other side of the road and the person who riding stopped to check out if everything was okay (kinda surprised tho) and we told him that everything was okay I'm glad that I scream run rather than just froze
These stories actually reminded me of something I had almost completely forgotten about. Sorry if it seems a little broken; I’m trying to fill in the blanks as best I can since this story is almost 10 years old.
I was about 12-13 years old when we were visiting my step-dad’s ex sister-in-law and her three kids, my cousins in a sense. One of her daughters had some serious mental issues and was a classic narcissist, so, naturally, my parents told me to go play with her.
After a few hours of doing whatever I’m her room, she tells me she wants to go down to the lake to meet up with her boyfriend, but that our parents didn’t need to know.
We get down to the lake and everything is fine until he pulls up in his car. He looked a lot older than she was, probably in his early to mid twenties while she was 15-16. I Immediately get this creeped out feeling and won’t get anywhere near him or his car. They weren’t arguing or anything like that, he just gave me a bad feeling. I ended just leaving without saying anything to her and going back up to her mom’s house. When my parents ask where my cousin went, I tell them she’s down by the lake with her boyfriend, and everyone is instantly outraged or panicked. My step dad hopped into his truck and tore out of there.
Turns out, when he got there, this dude got pissed off and pulled a huge knife and took a swing at my dad. I don’t know what else happened after that, but cops were called shortly after.
I still don’t know why my cousin brought me along to meet her pedo boyfriend or why he had the knife on him if he was just meeting her, but I’m 90% sure things would’ve been worse if I had just stayed at the lake. As far as my cousin goes, I distanced myself from her; she was still in and out of juvy for the rest of her younger years, ended up addicted to cocaine or meth, and ran off with a trucker. No one has seen or heard from her in years.
