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?

living in swazilanddriving north from nhlangano(where we lived) to mbabane part of the journey goes through a nature reserve. 12 foot fences on either side though. im sitting on the back seat looking between the 2 front ones when my father goes "look - springbok !!" so i turn quickly to look out the side window to see a herd of springbok leaping over these fences.
BANG ! at that precise moment one of the feckers lands on the roof of the car and caves it in, the rear view mirror shoots out through the rear windscreen.
roof and rearview mirror would have definately done nasty things to my head, had i not moved a second beforehand. survive? i think not.
we continued the rest of the 200KM on dirt roads with my father hanging out of his side window like one of those dogs you see in the movies.
