This is a question Narrow Escapes

IHateSprouts tells us they once avoided getting caught up in an IRA bomb attack by missing a train. Tell us how you've dodged the Grim Reaper, or simply avoided a bit of trouble.

Agreed.
And not just for those particular bombings. The only convincing post I've seen is the one about being caught in the Rammstein aircrash.
If you heard or saw the bomb go off, or got shrapnel in the leg rather than the forehead, that's a narrow escape. If you were using public transport in the same district, not so much.

That was partially my point;
but there's a bit more to it, inasmuch as there seems to have been as many narrow escapes from 7/7 as there were fragments of the True Cross floating around pre-Reformation Europe.

Hmmm - I think I may have to interpolate that into the OP...
