10 – ishbam Pringle When Pringle was 5, he and his family were
in Arizona visiting a crater. It was HUGE and there was no railing to prevent anyone
from falling in. They took a tour and when it had finished, they were heading back to
the gift shop when Pringle decided to start running. His mom started running after him,
trying to catch him when he slipped and almost fell over a hundred feet to his DEATH. Luckily
his mom caught him just in time. The tour guide watched the whole thing, almost having
a heart attack. If it weren’t for his mom’s quick thinking, he wouldn't be here today.
9 - Patchwork0013 Ladybot One time when Ladybot was young, she came
very close to death. She thought it would be a great idea to jump off the roof of her
house and on to a trampoline. For a few short seconds she thought she was actually flying
but then she very quickly fell over her neighbour’s fence and landed in their backyard with a
broken leg. Ouch.
8 – JessicaJimerson Emojie When Emojie was about nine years old, his
mother decided that because it was a rainy day it would be a fantastic time for reading
spooky stories. She took Emojie to the local library to grab a few good books. He was so
excited when they got there he jumped out the car, but suddenly he realized the ground
around him was getting brighter. He looked up only to see a zig-zag beam of lightning
shooting down towards him. Without thinking he leapt back into the car, and as if in slow
motion, he saw the lightening touch the ground where he was standing one second before. A
very lucky escape.
7 – Tom_Odayama Slapped Ham Slapped Ham’s family thought he must have
had a guardian angel watching over him, but in truth, that guardian angel was his dad.
When he was about 6 years old, Slapped Ham was at the park. He was chasing the birds
because he believed all birds belong in the sky. So when he saw geese for the first time,
he immediately demanded they fly as well. They didn't fly of course, and just as an
angry goose lunged at his tail, his dad scooped him up and saved him. It was a close call.
6 – thegoatmanYT Dolan and DD’s Bro Once, when Dolan’s parents were out of town,
he and his mysterious brother were wrestling on their parent’s roof, which seemed like
a great idea at the time. In a moment of fury, Dolan’s brother threw Dolan straight over
the edge and on to a plastic table below. If it weren’t for the table being there,
he would have landed face first into concrete. What a Christmas holiday that was.
5 – misaki_may Pandora In fifth grade, Pandora was taking a math
test on the school computer while chewing gum. About halfway through the test, she suddenly
started choking. For what felt like ages, no one in her class helped her, they just
stared in disbelief. Meanwhile, she was so scared and trying desperately to get the gum
out. She drooled all over the keyboard and was able to save herself just before she ran
out of oxygen. It was a close call, and she even managed to pass the test.
4 – AJLoveGamer Nixxiom One time Nixxiom was sitting down watching
TV when his dog walked over and sat in front of the TV, staring at him. It got creepy real
quickly so he told him to stop, but the dog just kept staring so he tried to scare him
off. But that just made him mad, and then suddenly he bit down so hard on Nixxiom’s
big toe he could feel his fangs touching the bone. Nixxiom screamed and the dog stopped.
He had to have stitches in his foot for a whole month and Nixxiom’s father spanked
the dog for being so aggressive.
3 – Metaldragonslayer Hellbent One time Hellbent was at a theme park and
decided he would ride the biggest rollercoaster he could find. Halfway through the ride, the
most terrifying thing happened: his safety belt broke off. He held on for his dear life,
and the ride attendant just thought he was screaming like everyone else. The ride finally
ended and he survived. Needless to say he needed a new pair of pants after that.
2 – Imminycrafter SweetCommando and MKyleM When they were teenagers, SweetCommando and
MKyleM were out turkey hunting in the countryside. They had made a new trail recently and decided
to walk along it. As they were walking SweetCommando whispered “Don't move, just listen for the
turkey”. That's when MKyleM heard the soft padding of feet. He turned around to see a
huge ass wolf about to jump on him and that's when SweetCommando shot at a turkey in a nearby
tree scaring the shit out of the wolf. At that moment SweetCommando turned around and
saw it, and they both yelled “FUCK NO!” Then both ran in the opposite direction
and never returned.
