I'll go first, when I was 14 was riding my skateboard to my market to pick up some ms points, when I was riding across the crosswalk, some stupid lady that wasn't paying attention or something, was driving her car and all I hear is some horns and then bam! The car hit me, I blacked out and when I woke up I was lying on the sidewalk with the fire department and ems around me, I told them I was fine, in some sort of muttering so I don't think they heard because my vision was all blurry and I wasn't to sure on what had just happened, long story short, they still took me to the hospital, amazingly I hadn't broken anything, and I just walked with a limp for a few days. That's the closest I've come to death, now you go.
[spoiler]all I wanted were some damn Microsoft points.[/spoiler]

3 RepliesI got a motor scooter for my birthday when I was young (12ish). My mom let me ride it to school, but insisted she drive behind us incase anything happened. I managed to make it within sight of the school when I crossed the street. No, I didn't touch a car. I simply hit the curb of the cross walk path off center and was impaled on the handle bars. The handles turned ninety degree and stabbed me in the stomach causing me to fall and black out. I woke up with my mom carrying me out of the truck and into the school nurses room. I had gone into shock at this point and was barely consious. I got to ride in an ambulance and was in the hoapital for the rest of the day. I was sent home to return that night with horrible pains in my abdomen. Apparently my appendix had swollen from the impact, but not enough to be noticable early in the day. Luckily I didn't need surgery, just meds for the swelling and pain. Moral of the story: always make sure someone has your back [spoiler]clearly my brother didn't... The little turd was ridding in front of me and never noticed that I didn't show at school...[/spoiler]
