i got hit by a car about a year ago... as i was flying through the air, time seemed to slow. wasnt sure if id been asleep or i was just waking up or i was dead until i hit the tarmack. then i was super relieved coz i wasnt dead. sort of freaky experience. i didnt break anything thou i had a slight concussion... now i alsways double check before running across the road

had something similar when i was rock climbing. i go regularly at portland and when scrambling to get to the climb i fell about 4 metres on to jagged rock, thought i might have broken my leg in a state of panic but i ended up going for a climb later that day
thing is, if i had fallen about 20cm to the right it would have been about an 8 metre drop.

Oh yeah drove off a road in hills once (hit accelerator not brakes)
rolled three times but trees stopped us going down into river,
hitchiker in back didnt have belt on...ended up under my feet & in hospital.
I reckon it was the mushies and green dope.
Kabul was about eating hash in Nepal rolled by feelthy hands
and making it to Afghanistan before the wierdness became too much.
(no I'm no mujahadeen...they're into opium)
Shit, I can think of more!
but as yet to experience car-induced flight...

you know that feeling when your laying there and you cant tell if the pain hasnt came yet or if you made a lucky escape.

Doing 180 on a pitch black motorway and having to swerve to avoid some idiot driving the wrong way in the fast lane....Surely guaranteed death if I hadn't held it together.

I swear this is true:
rain on outback dirt
hit water at 100 clicks
360 just missing trees and vehicle on 2 wheels
back to straight ahead
so just kept going (with sweaty grin)
pulled into town
people ogling car covered in mud like icing.
Rather that than Romania tho.

Hey
this ain't about making judgements
sabout getting close to the end.
Anybody on here got close to drowning?
Twice, exhausted in big surf, nothing left
sinking to bottom, breath gone
the dreamy nonchalance kicking in...

Sorry but I'm gonna have to tell you to shut the fuck up now because you never got it the first time.
Don't be so dumb, not everywhere in the world has speed limits. One such place in Germany and their Autobahns. They also don't have lights on many of them.... it's still perfectly legal.
