You too, huh?

On Topic
Mine had to have been my first excursion of Mountain Biking. It was between two ski communities in Colorado, roughly 15 miles up/down hill biking trek. Well, my brother being the type of person he is, decided he'd go fast. Not wanting to hang slow with my parents, I sped up with him. In the forest, he was whipping around turns faster than I could, so I ended up slowly lagging behind. By the end of the forest path, he was well out of my sight. The path decided that four rapid 90° turns was a good idea. My fingers flexed in the right brake-order for the first turn, and then the wrong order for the second. Mind you, I'm going downhill at this time, so... about 25 MPH (40 km/h). Well, the front of the bike stops, and I don't. I bounced along the rocks and gravel for a good two seconds until skidding to a stop.

Lucky for me, with a giant slash along my right arm and several parallel slashes along my back, the highway was nearby. By nearby, I mean maybe a minute walk. I walked along the path until I reached the highway, and tried to flag down passing motorists. Since they're skiiers, they carry basic first aid kits, right? Well, I'm clutching my right arm in as tight a grip as I can manage, considering it's bleeding quite profusely at this point. So I'm waving frantically with one arm oozing red. A car slows as it sees me, then they return my wave and speed off. (Proof enough Americans are stupid?) The next vehicle, an SUV, pulled over and they got me cleaned up.

Sadly, they didn't have bandages, so I just used their kit until the bleeding mostly stopped, and then had to ride the rest of 10-15 miles (16-24 km) to the closest store to buy some.

It wasn't a pleasant experience, especially not considering I was 15 at the time, and pretty much was the sole factor for most of the scars on my body. Lucky enough, no sprains or breakages from it.

Realizing the older teenage boys weren't going to stop attacking my friend unless I did something. Pure adrenaline from that moment until it was over was the only thing that got me through it, I think...got me past their threats to hurt me too, so I could take action and hurt them.

When I was in the back seat of my dads truck when he was going 60 mph (drunk) and hit some rocks, popping 2 tires and had us spin out on the beach.

playing resi 4 and hearing the regenerators breathing
So true. That was really the only scary part of the game besides oven man and the monks chanting, but it was good enough to cover for the rest of the game.

I just had one, but it was a false alarm. I was finishing off the last of a gallon of tea, and I looked at the container as I was drinking it out of the same, and the expiration date looked like it said April 03. "Oh shit!" I thought as I spat out what was already in mouth. I looked at the date and it said April 30. Stupid upside-down stuff.

Also, getting pulled for my only speeding ticket ever. I'm not even that bad of a driver, they just caught me at a weird sudden downhill stretch of road. The District Attorney got it down to improper equipment for me, so it all worked out in the end.

When I realised I learned for an English test. One minute before I had to make a Math test.

Second thought after 'oh s@#$' was 'Well that sucks...'

When my PS3 got the YLOD.

When I tripped over a balance beam and saw that I was going to land on my arm. (I broke it.)

Unless your in a tank.

Anyway my oh-s**t moment was when i was cycling home and realised a bus was coming towards me and so i was on the wrong side of the road. NP ill just go on the right side where there was another bus coming behind me. I tried to swerve onto the path at the last minute f**ked up immensly and wound up with a broken tailbone(aka my arse feel free to laugh)

Woke up from a nightmare during a spring break service project in the inner city then hearing a woman outside screaming "no, NO!" followed by gunshots.

"You flinched!"

I guess my OH SHIZZ NIZZLE moment was when my PC spontaneously combusted. Smoke came out and a small flame. Aww.
