lately i've been thinking a lot about death. and the 'what's the worst way to die' thread exposed me to a few stories that some of you have about being close to death.
petek , for example, thought he was going to drown and/or freeze.

so im wondering what situations you've been in that involved being close to death, what you thought about them, what you did, what you thought during them, and what ended up happening.

i'm so curious about death, i mean, WHAT HAPPENS?

Three years ago my family was driving to Whitefish. We went through a winedy (sp?)canyon 2 lane road, there were lots of semi-trucks traveling on it. A small car behind us decided to pass us. Well the man was fuckin dumb, b/c you couldn't see around the curve. When the car was rite next to us a semi comes haulin ass round the corner. the car trys to fuckin turn into us, my dad swerves outta the way, coming so damn close to the edge of the road. (there was no gaurd rail) ther was no crash or anything. but fuck it was sooo damn scary. We were lucky it wasn't icy.

i was reminded of this experiance from the driving range thread, my sister was bitching at me to get out of her room, and i wouldnt, and she was in this loft, like 10ft up, and she jumped down and nailed me in the head with a 9iron, knocked me out, i was bleeding. i came to and she was over me, i knocked her down, dragged her down the stairs, threw her ass out the door, locked it, adn passed out right htere, BLOOD EVERYWHERE

Frankly i like the yolks, i, i, i do. I have no problem, its just theres always been alot of tension between Lois and me, and its not so much as i want to kill her. It's just i want her to not be alive anymore. Uh, i sometimes wonder if all women are this difficult.

hiking up tuckerman's ravine, i went up the route thats right in the middle to the right of all the rocks, then it curves off at one point, and i took that route. It was so steep and the snow was so heavy and avalanching in little bursts. I was looking behind me and there were cliffs, and i was thinking that if i fell it would be certain death. I came close a few times cause i couldnt get the right foothold and lost my balance backwards. I figured there was a good chance that i could die, and thats not the best feeling. Getting down on skis was no problem and thats the day i realized im better on skis than on my feet.

I was on a climbing trip in the Tetons and we were doing this snow route one day, on our way down from the route I lost my footing on a steeper section of an exposed snowfield and started sliding really fast down this snowfield, torward a big cliff band...the snow was so slushy that it was nearly impossible to self arrest with my ax, and I saw my life flash before my eyes- I thought for sure I was goign to slide off this huge cliff and die...I finally gave it one more huge effort and buried the head of my ax in the snow, barely self arresting myself. I was so scared, it took forever for me to get down the rest of the route back to our camp just becuase I was sketched as fuck.

the only thing i can think of is this time I was doing this hike, we were on these really small, steep stairs and the angle was pretty much straight down. So my brother though it'd be funny to scare me shitless and push me as we were climbing. So of course, I tripped and fell pretty hard, got knocked out and had some nasty gashes in the back of my head. Luckily, this guy somewhere near the bottom stopped my fall before I fell off the nice cliff. I don't remember much about it though.

When I was a year old, my mom set me on the counter in the kitchen and left for just a minute, and when she came back, I had the toaster in the sink (it was plugged in), with the water running on high. It was up in flames, and I was sticking a knife in the slots. There was also another time (night of February 27 & morning of Feb. 28) when I got INCREDIBLY wasted, had a two and a half hour really bad asthma attack, and then stopped breathing and didn't have a heartbeat for two minutes. Weird thing is, I don't remember a thing.

Courchevel, France two seasons ago. Me and my buddy Keith hiked up and left from 'Grande Couloir' to the top of the next couloir. It looked awesome - about 40 degree pitch, spring windblown snow all thw way down. Except the entrance had been scraped down to bare rocks by some snowboarders who had side-slipped then pussied out and hiked back up. Rather than ski over the rocks and wreck my new V-Pros I decided to hike down then strap in. So I hiked down past the rocks and there was a kind of flatter part to lay my skis down on. As I put my skis down, I lost my balance and fell over. So that caused me to slide down the whole couloir, easily 600ft (distance) down the 40 degree slope. The couloir was maybe only 80ft wide at the start, and it bent to the right on the way down, so I was extremely lucky not to hit the walls. For most of the slide I managed to stay on my ass, steering/braking by digging my heels into the snow, but I was tumbling all sorts of ways at times too - cartlwheeling, sidways, ony my back, head-first, you name it. On my way down, I was positive I'd come out of it with broken legs at the least. Strangely though I wasn't scared during it. I was totally focused on trying to keep as safe as I could. Still, a ver lucky escape. I had my cell phone on me, so I phoned Keith to tell him to gather all my gear and throw it down the slope to me. After that fall, I skied very cautiosly for the rest of the day - it really shook me up. Since then, I always wear a helmet if I'm doing stuff like that or in the park.

Driving back from Jay Peak, VT, we took a turn onto a bridge, hit some ice, hit the guardrail, slid across the road into the left lane and into some guy's front yard. That was the mild one.

Then, this season, before Christmas, like the 20th or something, we're driving back from Mt. Snow, VT, and there's about 4 inches of slushy snow on the road, and more is falling quickly. We're on a perfectly straight stretch of highway, going like 40 MPH, pretty slow, and all of the sudden, my dad was like, all calmly: 'hold on...' and we start fishtailing back and forth, out of control, I'm swearing my head off, and we do a 180, slide off the road and down an embankment, and the car goes up onto two wheels, and it's thisclose to tipping, and it settles back down onto all four wheels. But we stopped about a five feet away from a telephone pole, and I spilled my really hot hot chocolate. Yeah, it was scary as hell.

Weird Jodi, I have a paddling story for you too... GullRiver in Minden, ON:

In a boat too small for a muscular specimen such as myself, I got flipped in a dirty recirculating hole.... paddle yanked, panicked couldn't roll, spent the most part upside down for about a minute and a half, drinking the river and thinking, 'hey, I guess today is the day I fucking die, drowning on the Gull...' that was the scariest shit, my buddy was able to flip me back up, and i made it to the eddy, shaken and stirred, never to paddle a kayak in whitewater again, however, I now have a sweet ass canoe that really turns Jodi on.... she likes us open boaters..... especially at the end of the day, when I undo my one-piece Helly Hansen drysuit, and my man-cologne drifts off my body like the sweet smell of dew in the morning... drives her crazy....

Er, but anyways.... drowning is fucked, I became pretty relaxed and thought that was it..... terribly frigtening really.....

east coast price your story reminded me of one my dad told me. He was coming back from skiing and hit ice on a bridge and slid out, but dsidnt hit anything. So they stopped and got out to check everything and another car did the same thing, but hit the side of the bridge, and one of the guys in the car flew out of the window into the woods under the bridge.

one time i was riding in vermont and i slide a rail and sumhow landed on my ribs , well i broke 4 , and i thought that was the worst part, till i couldnt breath, my ribs punctured one of my lungs and i passed out, tha next thing i can remember is waking up in tha hospital on life support,with a collapsed lung and with a tube in my chest that was recieving oxygen because tha hole was a half inch in diameter, i had to get surgery to close tha hole, it was sooo shitty, but it gave me a reason to make that rail my bitch, but if i hadnt gotten to tha hospital as quick as i did, i would have been real close to dying

this fall in france me and 30 of my classmates were going to tignes on a coach bus from paris and about a mile away from the base village we start to climb a large icy road.the bus stops, and starts sliding all over the place and then starts sliding down this steep road with cliffs on either side.quickly the bus driver of all people jump out of the bus screaming for his life, eats shit on the road, and the my coach and then my french teacher, i didn't want to risk my life so i jumped out of the bus while it was goin like 30 mph down this icy sloped road.soon asfter i jumped out i look down at the bus, still sliding down the hill, while lots of young teens and kids scream for there live.the bus then hit a 2 ft. high barrier on the side of the road and stoped on dry pavement under an avalanche barrier that acted like a bridge.this is as close as i have come to death, but believe me it is worse than it sounds.

Car accident. trying to outrun the cops in a Mustang GT down some damn mountain. Didnt make one of the curves, hit the gaurdrail head-on, then flipped over it and rolled 4 timesdown the hill. Guy driving was fine, I was in the hospital for a month and a half. It sucked.

a couple years back i was with my older bro and went to an old rock quarry to get some rocks for his driveway,so we get there and there was this humongous rock face like 75 feet up so i went around by the bush and up the side where it wasnt so steep so i get to the top and look down and throw a few little boulders down,i decided my fun was over and i walked back about 10 feet to go back down and like the whole fucken rock face just collapsed and fell 75 feet,if i would of been on the edge just 2 more seconds i would of been totalled

if there was a hill,alls you could of did was bike down there really fast and the bear would of rolled all the way down cuz their front legs are smaller so they end up rolling,but there was no hill so this is pointless

yeah, that was a pretty bad experience. I was talkn to my gf about it, who is kinda melodramatic about shit, and said that 'the minute you accept death, in one way or another, part of you dies. hope.' And talk about something completely cliched, we had a big argument before i left for kayaking that morning.

in france on this huge tourbus wen were on a mountain on this windy road. a if you went off the road you would be dead. it was scary cause i kept on thinking about what would happen if we fell. and my freind kept pointing out that the trees would slow our fall but we would still die.

I was in a golf match against this one kid that was just a horrible golfer. I was standing about even with him on the opposite side of the fairway. I wasnt really paying attention to him and then all of a sudden I hear a woosh and feel something graze my hair. The stupid kid almost killed me with a golf ball. For the rest of the round I hid in the woods every time he hit the ball.

when i was like 6 my family got in the car one night, it was a really cold, winter night. the radio told people not to go out on the road cuz it was windy and icy, but my mom took us out anyway. anyow, we were driving on an overpass, and we hit a patch of ice, did like a 720 and slammed the front of the car into a lightpole. we thought it was over there, but we stayed still anyway cuz we were still scared from the wipeout. and like 5 or 6 seconds later we hear this crazy loud noise, and all of a sudden this like 40 foot concrete pole falls right onto our car, and like pretty much splits it in half. the crazy thing is that we had nobody sitting in the middle, or they would have died for sure. and i was sitting on the right side of the car where the pole fell like a foot from where i was sitting. it was so scary.

when I went to ecuado, there was like this huge cliff and the driver lost control of the car so we went to the cliff and to this rock wall like going in s to each direction.
Another time in ecuador a guy was drunk with a .12 gauge he told us that he won't let us go in with the car and he went. And then I've heard a shot. I was sure he was about to shot us I was really scared. There is surely others that I don't remember now
