Near Death Experiences
Last time I crashed my bike, as I flew through the air towards the car in front of me not much went through my head apart from "You idiot". No tunnels, no lights to stay away from, no smiling family members beckoning to me.
Surely you've had a better near-death experience?

trapeze
at an activity centre week i did in secondary school, we did some high ropes stuff, death slide, jacobs ladder etc. then we did a trapeze type thing. it involved climbing a ladder to a high platform while tethered with a climbing rope, then jumping off the platform to grab a trapeze bar a few feet away. it was pretty scary but especially for me. when it came to my turn, because im tall, they moved it further away (the bastards) i flung myself out and grabbed the bar, hooray, i did it! then the momentum caught up with me and i let go, my legs whipped upwards and as i descended i turned upside down, the rope gathered some slack and formed a loop, this snapped out, a few cm above my head, any closer and i would have certainly hung myself, i have seen the videotape and its scary shit
