[QUOTE="Rut2much, post: 263572, member: 413"] Chasing an ole fling in her car (me on snowmobile) on the highway, last thing I remember before it all went sought was the speedometer reading 97 and I was flying past a dodge pickup. Hit an approach that had a sharp slab of concrete on top and it did not go well, it's like God grabbed me by the shoulders in an instant..! Driver of the pickup said he was looking out his window at the bottom of my track and as he watched me roll for 100 yards. I get up to watch my snowmobile still going and thought it was all going to be ok, that was until the ghost riding machine hit a huge culvert sending it flipping multiple times with the hood being torn in multiple pieces. Spinning shitties in a pickup and was getting way too brave right by a 7-10 foot rivine, welllll the last one got me and nice pickup got totalled out late that night going straight down into it with all airbags going off. Ramped a very inclined RR crossing at God knows what speed (verrrrry fast) in a 99 grand prix, buddy and I still dont know how we made it through that huge ditch on the opposite side plump filled with snow other than pure physics of flying. Playing under an old windmill as a kid and a very large beam of wood broke way up there and came down right on my head, knocked me right out! Fell from a 30-40' tree right on my back in the back yard, belly crawled to the front door and could not speak and tell them what the hell was wrong with me. Think that was around the same year I went through the ice in a slough and the ice was thin enough I could break it and swim back close to hypothermia. Closest i can remember though, we were on a family vacation out at detroit lakes and i feel like I was 4 yo. I was out braving it on the dock as my stepdad was splashing water at me from shore (wood dock). Well, she must have gotten awful slippery because I went in and just remember being flat on the bottom of the lake for what seemed forever until he scooped me off. He paid it back later in life as he dislodged a hot dog from my throat with the heimlich at a public cookout, talk about a helpless feeling.. Wish I could tell the story of the very nice 5x5 getting up and attacking me while getting his antler stuck in my nodak outdoors sweatshirt half as funny as my buddy can. Went to put him out of his misery with a 22 mag and that shot gave him an absolute burst of adrenaline as he looked at me like "wtf did you just do to me, you're dead mother effer!!" Thank God it was right through the heart as he fell over once he had me tangled right thru a tear in that sweatshirt and I couldn't jump high enough to get out.. That one on YouTube woulda made me a millionaire! They didn't call me Mr accident prone for no reason. [/QUOTE]
