July 4th last year probably, went to some smalltime fair and then there was a tornado warning for that area. Me and my family were stuck in like an open field with nothing to hide under and it started hailing like crazy, and any second we expected a funnel cloud. That was probably the scariest day of my life.

Either where I couldn't walk for a little while after a crash- I thought I was paralyzed... or that time I was sideways 20ft. up in the air coming off an up box that was propped up on a lift shack. That suuucked seeing everyone looking up at you.

when i was 15 my dad and i were going to visit my grandma and for about 30 miles you have to drive on this two lane road where the speed limit is 55 i believe. we were stuck behind this big 18 wheeler, it migh have even been on of those trucks that carries like half of a house but i dont remember. there wer'nt many passing zones and we were going about 40. my dad tried to pass when he didnt have enough room and we got about halfway past this thing and around the bend comes a pickup truck. we were stuck in the middle, couldnt slow down and get back and no way to accelterate and get over before the pickup truck came. my dad moved in as close as he could to the truck, the truck move over as far as it could and the pickup truck went onto the shoulder and passed us so there were two cars and a big truck passing on a two lane country road. i closed my eyes and just though i was going to die though. it would have been one of those accidents where everyone gets killed.

i was sleeping in my car on the way back from niagara falls and my car slipped on black ice causing it to roll over 3 times on the side of the road. i remember waking up and feeling the most intense pain ever, and it was sooo loud. we were flipped over when it stopped so i crawled out by kicking a window out and walked out of my car. then i just collapsed because my legs were totally fucked. i couldnt walk for a week after that.

I almost fell off a 40-50 foot cliff onto jagged rocks.
I almost drowned.

i dont remeber this but when i was in australia i stuck my head out of the subway window and got it stuck. my dad freaked beause he saw these big pillars that passed within a few inches of the train once in a while so he started pulling but couldnt get my head back in. he finally got my head in and right after that a big pillar passed by.

I took a couple handfuls of really potent mushrooms. had a bad bad trip. the grim reaper chased me through the woods. the setting sun was burning the earth. I have never been so scared in my life.
Another was surfing in Southern Australia and I smacked a hard hard object with my hand while I was paddling out past the break. Looked beneath me into the water and a huge huge shark swam right under me. easily 10-12 foot. I was a good 150 meters from shore. It was the longest paddle in of my life. I thought I was surely dead.

The 2nd time i broke my back, when i cleared the lip on a pitch, and the willy coyote thing happened, when he runs off the cliff, it was a huge pitch, i cleared it to flats on an icy day in Quebec, in the air i thought i was dead, i accepted the fact that i might die, and there was no way to keep me from hitting the ground, total distance travelled over 200 ft, with about 60 ft approx of vertical drop,

at lord of the park this year i was the first out of my 3 firneds to hit the 60 somethin footer. it turns out the jump was closed but there was nothing marking it or anything so im headin at it at full speed and when im right at the lip i realise theres a huge mount of snow on the lip. i automatically think oh shit, this aint gonna be good. i get bucked back and am flyin over the entire gap with my feet leading me just thinkin im so fucked. i land on the knuckle with my spine and had the most intense pain cause i felt my shins and back just exploded. i layed there for a couple mins and put my ski on and rolled down the rest of the landing freaked the fuck out. yeah, that was bad, im lucky i didnt get fucked.

once i went for a 45 footer, and i didnt have nearly enough speed, so im in the air, look down and see the knuckle, and im like "shit" , i ended up slamming my noses of my skis into the knuckle, cracking my goggles when i landed on my stomach and slammed my head into the ground. I slid down the landing on my stomach, and my brother comes up and is like "What the hell happened?"

Honestly, I have had a lot of fucked up shit happen to me...but most of the time its been so quick i didn't really have time to be sacred at all. I would actually say the most scared I've ever been is the first time I went on a rollercoaster when I was 9 or something. Great American Scream Machine at Great Adventure....its 188ft tall, and the entire way up to the first drop, i was shitting my pants like no other.

I posted this in another thread but this was it for me:
I got robbed at gun point in front of my apartment about 5 years ago. They shot out my neighbors windows and some in my apartment building, it was some wacky gangster shit. I thought they shot my buddy but he ran a block away while they had a gun to my head. They only got 11 dollars and my credit card which i canceled once they left.

scariest moment of my life that i cant remember was when i was at a party and killed 26 beers just because i said i would, and this is coming from a 150lb kid, my friends had a video of me, i was fucked up as shit, i kept telling my friend to hit me, and i guess he was decking me right in the face, and i couldn't feel it, and all of a sudden i passed out mid-sentence, my eyes rolled to the back of my head, and just collapsed right in the middle of the room.. yea i didn't drink so much after that it may not seem scary, but now that i look back on it i was pretty lucky

Reasonably sized people that drink a lot can usually down about 20 without killing themselves...26 is getting up there, but def. isn't certain death.

I was backpacking in New Zealand and fell off a HUGE cliff but caught on to a hardy New Zealand shrub and pulled myself back up. I udoubtedly would have died if it werent for that shrub. Im talking a couple hundred feet to sharp rocks.

probably when i was like 7 in a public pool. some kid threw a ball and i caught it i was going to give it back to him and he just dunked me underwater(he was probably 10-12) and i was literally under for almost 2 minutes. i started blacking out and he let me up. i didnt even see him again after i was too busy like crying because i almost died. when you are underwater for 2 minutes you have some time to think of death...

Skiing: trying to pop and tap a rock in the glades near the end of the season. The snow melted down more then i thought but there was a few inches of powder so it still looked good. I was flying through hit my tip on the front of it and did half a frontflip onto a tree stump and a log. the second i hit and looked down all i seriously figured i was gunna die
Skateboarding: bombing a hill and getting speed wobble so bad my board came right out from under me, tumbled probably 20 feet, concussion broken right wrist and left sholder snapped the wire on my braces and tore up my face good.
