Near Death ExperiencesLast 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?

back in 1984I was living in Cheshire in a place called Peckforton Castle. A bunch of us had just been to the supermarket and we were bombing back along the country lanes as you do when the driver, a guy called Molly, lost control going around a bend. The car swerved one way, then the other, all in that aldrenaline-pumped slo-mo that you get. Then it flipped and I remember thinking 'woooo' as I saw from the window first the sky then the road over and over. The car landed upright. Molly and I were unhurt, until I put my hand on some broken glass on the seat, lots of blood. The other two (passenger side, front and rear) both had head injuries on the right side of their heads, which was odd. We also found a ruptured can of butane in the wreckage of the car, so we kind of felt lucky.
