Mine was when I had a seizure in my sleep last year due to low blood sugar.
Also while at Nissan in the unit shop I drove through a diesel spill without realising on a painted concrete floor on a tow tractor. I tried braking, then steering, pulling the wheel so hard I snapped the steering bolt and crashed into stillages of cylinder heads stacked about 6 metres high.
- I was resuscitated and given CPR two weeks ago after I stopped breathing for 5 minutes
- Fell out of a 30 metre pine tree when about 12 years old and every painful branch broke my fall
- Fell off the cliffs at Whitburn when I was around 8 and landed almost unhurt on sand. Have a small scar on my back off a small stone/shell
- Ran into the road as a 7 year old and tripped over my untied laces before I'd got to the oncoming car. As the car braked I fell forward and hit my head off the wheel arch instead of going under the wheels
- Was found unconscious in school toilets at 5 year old after being poisoned with labernum seeds and was rushed to hospital, stomach pumped and in hospital for 2 weeks.
My sister did similar as a kid on the metal railings near McDonald's on Durham Rd. Not as bad as yours by the sound of it but went straight through her cheek and her head looked like a toffee apple on a stickWalking home one night pissed I kicked a football over a metal spiked fence. Went to retrieve it and slipped putting the spike through my throat and another through my chin. Managed to get off and to a phone box across the road. Phoned an ambulance and my dad. Told my dad I think I’m done in. Spent the night in surgery and had a blood transfusion. Remember seeing blood just pumping out of me and thinking there’s no way this can last. Weird experience.
I had an 'experience' in the old hanger at Nissan and told my supervisor that I wouldn't go in there again. Instead of laughing or getting angry he said ok and told me his sister was a matron at Havlock hospital and they regularly had the place exorcisedEvery time I closed my eyes I could see them. They were just people going about their business but they weren’t nurses or anything. They were just regular people.....children too. I’d be watching them and thinking “why don’t they get out of my room when I’m trying to sleep?” It was relentless and then after a couple of days I didn’t see them anymore. The strongest medication I was on was paracetamol. It wasn’t scary.
Can you feel them in your head still? I can.
My son is type 1 diabetic and before he was diagnosed last year he was losing a load of weight. I used to bring him a full box of Krispy Creme donuts back and try to force him to eat them all. Doctors couldn't understand how he wasn't in a coma.Similar for me.
I collapsed and was unconscious and unresponsive, due to severe hypoglycemia.
I'd felt ropey for the previous few days, and put it down to having a bug.
I remember getting out of bed, but it felt like I was dreaming, and the next thing I knew, was when I was in an ambulance being rushed to hospital.
After four days of MRI and CT scans, countless blood tests and brain scans, I was allowed back home.
I was told, if I hadn't been found in time, I wouldn't be alive today.
I have adrenal damage and still have to go back to hospital for quarterly scans and blood tests and am on medication now, but it's a tiny price to pay, in order to keep an eye on my wellbeing.
Aye, that would have been big trouble in little Micra.Severe dehydration / alcohol poisoning.
Kept trying to push through it, but everything I ate or drank over an 8hour period just came back up.
Went for a walk at the shopping centre (this is in vegas by the way), and my face went numb, and I slid down a wall onto the floor and started convulsing.
Pretty scary tbh.
That, and being distracted at 70mph on the A19 in the 90's, and didn't realise there was stationary traffic that I was about to plow into. Last second I veered into the other lane without checking (no time), and by pure luck, I avoided the accident. Considering the car I was in (a knackered, ancient Micra), I would have been in big trouble.
I was playing that last weekend in the life centre in Newcastle, think it’s the life centre anyhowsLogon or register to see this image
Strangely enough, i'm not diabetic.

As I hit them they rocked violently backwards and forwards and eventually came to a stop. It's the only time I can ever remember freezing through fear

Struck by lightning twice. Once in the shower during a hurricane in the Colombian Andes, second in the commander's seat of a Spartan CVR(T) in West Germany.
Couple of months ago I had a bite of beautiful roast beef. Suddenly I was having a lovely warm, soft dream. Until my wife smacked my back and dislodged it. I was looking extremely closely at my meal, almost face in it.
She still hasn't forgiven me for hurting her thumb with my back. But to be fair she still hasn't forgiven me for turning up in Hussar uniform with sabre and upstaging her on her wedding day 38 years ago.
I don't want to work with me, either.Please never work with me
Saved our lives you mean
I went over on night shift to store some old stillages and had the only key for the gates to the perimeter fence and to the hanger. I went inside and someone shouted my name plain as day from the inside. I went outside to check and there was no one in sight.What was your experience in the Nissan hanger?
Ive liked your post but obviously I don't like it, you know what i mean.Got beaten up from a random attack on Xmas Eve 2003. It's had a devestating effect on my life and the main reason for my depression and anxiety. I won't post details of the attack but the nurse told me when I eventually came round that it's the worst injuries she's ever seen from someone beaten up and surviving. The lad who done it got 6 months and served 3
same here, you do tend to brush off the close calls. the nearest i've come to anything major (up to now-touch wood) was riding through france on the way to portugal. rode through the night from here via dover and fell asleep north of bordeaux, ended up going off the road and through some trees. luckily managed to stay upright and unhurt.Can't think of owt ,there's probably been a few in my 42 years riding motorbikes but you tend to just forget about them .
Well, technically you aren't wrong mate
What age mate?Heart attack, air ambulance to QE2 in Birmingham, straight into the cat labs and had 2 stents fitted.
