Ghoulish Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Do you know someone or have you for that matter "Cheated Death" or escaped serious injury via a lucky coincidence? example: Seth Mcfarlane, the creator of Family Guy, was set to board one of the U.S. Aircrafts that crashed into the Twin towers, it was only through the mistake of his agent in terms of the time of the flight that he missed it.

GenzoTheHarpist Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 It is man's nature to look for patterns where none exist. There are an infinite number of ways you could escape a given situation; that one of those ways happened is nothing miraculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resident Fascist Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 I almost choked once, I thought i was gonna die, and someone I disliked smacked me in the back with a book.

-Blue Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 My mate Ash was doing 'Free running' and tried to do an arial front flip into grabbing a wall, he smacked his head into the wall. Funny as hell, still painful for him though, almost killed him. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JG. Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 I was once pushing a loaded trailer up a hill, when I slipped and fell, and obviously the trailer rolled down too. I managed to roll out of the way, almost, and escaped with some broken fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-DG- Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 I don't believe in that "Destiny" bullshit. I believe that, when God wants you, He'll take you. No offense to you or your topic, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grunt Issun Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Nothing is pre-determined, thus you can't cheat death, inorder to cheat death, death would have to be set in stone, and you change it, since nothing is set in stone, everything that could be considered cheating death is mere coincidance, like the above user said, when God wants me, he'll take me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghoulish Posted January 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 @ the 2 comments above me: Thankyou for your views. However I wasn't stating this although it may have been writtien like it: - "When did you cheat death?" I intended for: - "Experiences that give you the perception of cheating death" In other words, although you can't cheat death when was a not-so-fun time when it could be perceived that you did, I don't think I made it clear originally.
