What's wrong with that?

If I was in a car crash and the other driver died and I survived, I too would have survived a fatal accident.

Benb, I think you are thinking about it a bit too much, I mean you could say the same for many headlines given so far, so just chill, take a deep breath and relax.
It's just the wording of it, I mean it doesn't mention anyone else, just the man having this accident and then somehow surviving, that's all, I mean heaven only knows what you think of all the others posted so far!

So Benb, what do you say here??
'A thief has unsuccesfully tried to steal a hand bag , so what?, what's funny about that?'.

Norfolk's Eastern Daily Press is a pretty good paper for a regional though often covers somewhat less than earth shattering events. 'Milk stolen from doorstep' was one a while back, as well as 'shed catches fire'. Most things in the world have a Norfolk connection according to the EDP. When George W Bush fixed the US election (2004?) and 'won' by a few thousand votes, the EDP had a massive overhead photo of Newton Flotman near Norwich which it claimed had the same number of people as votes Bush won by.

So was I up to a point but wasn't entirely sure.
Good, that's settled then.
...and what's more, I think it was the other way around: "The bowler's Holding; the batsman's Willey". Michael Holding was a West Indies fast bowler, Peter Willey was an England batsman. And moreover, the whole story is claimed to be apocryphal - no-one on TMS ever owned up!
