Fell off the couch before my bones had solidified. Fell sideways. Broke my arm. If I'd fallen in any other way I'd be dead. Or returded.
I used to do carpentry with my dad. He was missing a few clamps. He used his circular saw.
More personal examples are excluded. If you want to hear, PM me. Just don't post them.

That's kind of my point... There's always a warning on the label that the product may contain peanuts... I'm not sure how that works in "your defense" when you ate the product knowing you were allergic to peanuts.

What does that do?
Yes, Tears for Fears created the original Mad World, but Gary Jules did a remixed version I believe. His remixed version was used in the Gears of War 2 Trailer. Youtube it, but I do admit, I may be wrong. (It says in my itunes play list Mad World- Gary Jules/ Tears for Fears cover so...)

Tell you what, you go ahead and stick to Tears for Fears, and not bitch about what I listen to do. I'm not forcing it upon your ears. But yes, I do agree Tears for Fears is a good band. Anyways, back to the topic!

My story is particularly lame, but I'll tell it anyways, seeing as it's my only near death experience and I have nothing else to do.
Me and my older brother were riding in the same bike (me riding and him on the pegs) down a the sidewalk of a steep road, parallel to the street I live in.
As we neared the bottom of the hill, closing in on the intersection, my brother yelled "Press the brakes!", to which I responded, "HOLY FUCKING SHIT THIS IS THE BRAKE!" (I had been squeezing the brakes for like 5 seconds, the cable had broken). My brother jumps of the kegs, thus boosting my speed even more, and I hit the curb in the middle of the road and am sent flying (for some reason, I land in a perfect roll), all the while, a lady walking her dog sees the whole ordeal :rofl:.
Luckily, there were no cars when this happened, and neither of us had a scratch. We just walked home laughing. :happysad:

I find it amazing that for some reasons near death experiences can either be the scariest fucking thing in your life if your hurt, or the funniest/funnest if it all just slides off without any serious harm done.
Heh! I wasn't so lucky with cars!
I was 14 and I was running a friend that had taken I don't remember what from me.
We were on the street and not paying a whole lot of attention as I was pissed.
My stupid friend decides to cross the street without watching, realizing, in the middle of it, that he is going to be run over a car. I got to him, took him by his shoulders and impulsed us both to the street edge, hitting my head REAL BAD, it bled and everything.
The car stopped (it would have run over us, couldn't stop on time) and the car that was behind this one, crahed him lol.
We had to go to the police station etc.

I'll admit that I probably chose a poor example there, but that's like saying I shouldn't go for a drive because there might suddenly be an engine fire that destroys the car and kills me.
I should also mention that's never actually caused a problem yet. Most of the reactions were from eating something that resembled something else (Reese's Pieces look like M+Ms), or eating something I did not realize contained peanut butter as it generally would not (i.e. my friend's sister made chocolate chip cookies and failed to mention the extra ingredient. Home made chocolate chip cookies do not contain labels).
I suppose I could just not eat anything chocolate ever, which would suck.
And no nuts (Diamond is cool about this. They distribute almonds in a bag that says they were never anywhere near any sort of peanut product).
And no sitting within several feet of someone who is eating a peanut butter sandwich. (Granted this doesn't do anything anymore, but it used to give me hives on teh lipz)
And no eating Almond Chicken on a cruise ship that just happened to somehow have been cross-contaminated with peanuts in some way, as they were definitely not part of the recipe (and I asked).
Anyway, this is a personal stupidity thread, is it not?
