    Well lets see I might have a few that qualify. I'm not sure what kind of numbers and types of people are on here. Some I can think of....and admit online!!haha

    1. 19yrs old. Was crushed between a garbage truck and parked dump truck while working on the back of a co-mingle (recycling) truck while in college. NO BROKEN BONES but one hell of a bruise.
    2. 17yrs old. Punted a football 85yards in the air and 100+ total while at H.S. football practice (40 mph wind at the back; also I was a Div 1aa college player at 18).
    3. 22yrs old. Hit a baseball and estimated 500+ feet at a Men's league game with MLB fence distances and where ball went into forest well over fence was estimated 100+ feet over fence. The farthest of many HR's in my old ball playing career. (was with a metal bat).
    4. 33 years old.LANDED over 25 feet drop in tight woods run on a snowboard and rode away like I do it all the time.( not really if I can help it).
    5. 7 years old. Decided it was a good idea to see if pouring gas out of the lawnmower can and lighting a match REALLY got the same result as I saw on the DUKES OF HAZZARD! WOW DID IT! had a friend jump my fence faster than I thought possible and I ran and put it out with a garden hose with no one else noticing at the time. Being 10 feet from my house I got a few Q's but when a 7yr old say no to that who would think any different! lol .....last time i ever messed with matches! still hate the sulfur smell!

    yeah, thats about as far i got through reading that one too. any story that starts off like that cant have a good ending. and i was laughing too hard to see clearly so i couldnt really read the rest of it.

    going by the numbers, TW has about 30,000 members right now. that means that there could be another 30 or so members that have had a similar experience. is anyone going to man up and admit to it though?

    I rolled(totalled) my 07 taco about a 1/4 mile from my house, it landed on its wheels in a rain ditch(empty but muddy) so i gathered my thoughts for a second, put it 4x4 and drove it home.
    apparently some one saw me do this called the cops and they showed up at my house with a handfull of mail and an envelope full of live ammo that flew out of my window.
    needless to say they were pissed. gave me a field sobriety test(which i passed) and ticketed me for leaving the scene of an accident.

    I shook President George W Bush's hand. Happened a few years back while I was at work. He had to change his Photo Opp for the media to our store, when it got out that he was going to Walgreen's, to promote the Medicare Prescription Drug program for Medicare. No clue it was about to happen, a fellow employee came back to our work area and said the President was in the building. The coolest thing was the Secret Service snipers on every building surrounding our building, and the sound of helicopters hovering over the store. Hank Hill was right, very cheesy handshake.

    Finished College, no opportunities over there and I had to go work with the military to repay my free education. Not worth it so I found a work contract in Russia and left. Lived in Russia for a while, did not like the cold so I managed my way to the US. :D

    I was in a high speed chase and was shot at by red necks. I also ran and got away from the cops three times back in HS.

    Yea. But one time they had a helicoptor and a swarm of police. I was hiding under this tree that had droopy branches. After the helicoptor light passed (it was doing circles) I ran! Biggest adrenaline rush ever. I had to jump 3 fences, run across a sewer, and then a wall. I bet I could have been in the Olympics.

    hahaha.. now there is a story to tell the grand kids. All of my runs were always in a car :D I can run fast but only for about 3min then I'll run out of steam. They sent a helicoptor out to kick me off of a beach once.

    I never ran in a car.

    However one time i was about 7. And me and my mom were standing on the corner at my grandmas house. One of my moms friends come flying by on a motorcycle and stalls right in front of us. He didnt know we were at the house. He just happened to drive by. We see him frantically trying to kick start it. Then in the distance we see like 3 cop cars coming. lol. My mom was cheering him on saying "Go!" and he finally got it started and evaded them. I was just a little 7 year old thinking I have a thug for a mother.
