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.

I am on borrowed time.
1 was meant to be on Southall train that crashed but rearranged my schedule that day for no apparant reason.
2 was meant to be on the Ladboke Grove train but missed the train that morning due to getting my leg over.
3 saw the beginnings of the 100 car pile up on the M40 j8 in my rear view mirror which I would have been in the centre of had I taken the right hand slip road as normal.
4 was in a plane that left JFK and within a minute had stalled due to turbulance, dropped but recovered. just. (3 months later, it happened again and it crashed into a suburb killing all on board) Was due to not enough gap between flights.
5 was stepping on an escalator as a kid. mum grabbed and stopped me. A step had collapsed and left a hole all the way through to the machinery where I was about to step.
So karma must be saving something extra special for me to go out with.
