Share your 'best' near death experience story

I just died in your arms tonight.

It must have been something you said.

Was It Pancreatitis? I lost a similar amount in few weeks with that

PS what a cheery thread this is

Nobody died, so win win.

Shall we have a worst cycling injury thread

My nearest death experience.

I'd been to see Iron Maiden in Nottingham. I'd had a bit to drink, and was feeling quite peckish. Couldn't find a kebab ship anywhere, but eventually stumbled across a chippy off the edge of the market square.

I stagger inside and eventually the alcoholic fog clears enough that I sense something is amiss. I look up to discover that I, the large skinhead gentleman wearing a Fred Perry, had wandered in to a West Indian foodie place, and a dozen or so burly looking rastas were giving me some very unpleasant looks.

I managed to escape alive, somehow, but after that my appetite had vanished.

Not really cycling related in any way, but that's probably the closest I've ever come to being stabbed and chucked in a skip.

Anybody who has read all the posts thus far can probably consider themselves a survivor...

They are all on the Trent, being the worse for wear it is a good job you didn't find the river.

I left a New Year's Eve party quite angry a few years back. I slammed the front door, one of those old Victorian type ones, turned and thumped my hand against it as hard as I could. It turned out that plate glass isn't that hard, and not only had I slashed up my arm putting it through I had impaled the underside as well

Withdrawing my arm slowly, and some what in shock, I watched jets of blood literally leap from my arm in fountain-like fashion and splattered on the ground. I figured that meant "artery".

As I lay on the street outside I heard several phrases you never really want to hear... "They can't send an ambulance, they're all busy!!", or "Don't close your eyes! Don't go to sleep!" For example.

As it happened someone eventually managed to flag down an ambulance that happened to be going down a nearby street, and I didn't die.

I don't know why you'd want to hear that story, but you did ask

That doesn't count as a near death experience though does it, don't you have to be a survivor to post on this thread?

I am posting from beyond the grave ........

I nearly dies once, but Mrs FF called an ambulance that took me too a hospital for an emergency operation which meant I could live a bit longer than the next few days..
Does that count?
