I'm Where I'm At
In highschool I had a jaw breaker in my mouth (the marble sized ones, not the huge ones) in probability and statistics class. I usually don't bite and break them right away, I suck on em for a bit. Well, after few minutes I swallow my saliva and *gulp* it goes into my wind pipe. I can still breath but my airway is definitely obstructed. I try to stay calm and breathe deep and slow. I don't wanna swallow hard because I'm afraid it'll go deeper. Class is almost over, so I try to wait it out and go to the nurse. Didn't wanna tell the teacher because eating in class meant ocd (on campus detention). Bell rings, as I'm walking outta class I involuntarily swallow and it goes deeper. Then suddenly my airway's completely blocked and breathing stops. I panic and for few seconds it felt like minutes.

Then my friend notices me turning red, as he's about to question me, POOF, the jaw breaking goes shooting out pegging my buddy right on his head and I gasp for air. I guess your body reacts and forces it out. I didn't even do that, my body went on auto pilot. Scariest seconds of my life. I could've easily choked to death. That whole week my mind was just numb and in shock. Since then I never play around with balls in my mouth. Unless they're from Ben and Jerry's

Sorry for the long read. Feel free to share
 
no, ive never had the opportunity to choke on balls....

this one time i almost got smashed by a huge chunk of ice that came flying off a passing semi truck, it almost went through our windshield right onto me.
 
I've had a few....I grew up in the hood...
 
2 years ago I was riding my bike down a really steep hill at 40mph. For some odd reason I decide to try and turn. The street is only two lanes with a lot of potholes. So I was turning and I hit a hole a feww inches deep. That sends me and the bike flying an extra 20 feet. I end up with a lot deep cuts everywhere. Feet, arms, legs, head, back. All of the cuts have little pebbles in them. When I crawled up the hill to my house my mom got most of the rocks out but the ones she couldn't get out stayed there and gave the cuts infections. That one decition ruin the last two months of summer.

Yep, fell through a stairwell landing during a fire, landed on my back, directly on my air bottle. Got stuck there while the rest of that stairwell fell on me....by the way it was also still on fire. Think I may have cried and pee'd a little or alot. Anyway, 3 herniations and a tear in my L3/L4 vertabrae. I absolutely am grateful for ALL of the small things. I choose my battles wisely and waste no time on the small stuff. I am pretty sure I have some drunk moments I have no idea about. Hence, the fact I no longer drink. I heard I was an @22hole!
 
I've had a few. Scariest moment for me was almost being hit by a police car. I was riding my bike down the street in NY. I was approaching the corner I heard police sirens. I went to put my foot down to stop( bike had no brakes) I looked to see were they were coming from and out left field comes a cop car. I knew I was too close and would get hit. Out of instinct still rolling I managed jumped off and over the bike. I toke a step forward put my hands n boom. I push myself off the car. The shock of it scared me the most. I walked away with three broken ribs.

A bike without brakes is like a car without brakes. Maybe not, but you could have been seriously messed up that day. Hope you learned to get some brakes!
 
Flew out of my kart going 60mph+. Fractured my ankle, rib and my collar bone.

Doing 165mph on the interstate in rush hour.

Pulled behind car on skateboard 35-40mph

Tried to kickflip a ten stair, broke my ankle and busted my teeth

Got jumped by my ex gf group of friends, ended up breaking a kids jaw and I went to Jail for it.

Kidnapped when I was 8 years old.

Many many more, I have over 15 er visits, 9 of which occurred in 1 year.


In the past 1 1/2 years I have settled down tremendously and have a new lease on life, some might say I found god, god being F1, fish and my job.

Never choked on a ball yet.
