~Crashed But Not Burned~

as i moved closer, my grip got tighter,i felt my heartbeat rising,my palms got clammy,i felt somewhat excited and yet scared,should i stop and turn back,should i just follow my gut,i'm caught in the moment, i move ahead,my grip gets tighter,heartbeat races even faster,i hold my breath,and breathe a sigh of relief...yeah that is how i felt a few days after i passed my accident site...yeah i somewhat managed to crash my car...here is how it goes...

rushing back + tired + not enough sleep + tyres weren't inflated properly + raining + puddle of water = skidded, lost control, crashed

...that's the short version...been explaining too many times already...and please don't ask how fast i was going...between all that from loosing control to coming to a crashing halt...looking back i'm actually amazed at how much stuff can flash through a persons mind when faced with a near death experience (yes i actually thought it was my time to meet the BIG GUY)...i think now i know what people mean by "my whole life flash before my eyes"...seriously...i thought of everyone possible...or everybody's face flash through my mind...i can't tell which...all i know when it all ended...i went "OHHHH FUCKKKK!!!!!"...then tried to put my car into reverse and continue driving...so like every other day i've been passing my accident site...replaying the sound and visions that i remembered oh so clearly...i've actually gotten to the stage where i can make sound effects when i'm passing by...it goes something like "spushhhh...eeeeeeeee....swoosh swoosh swoosh...bang...@#^%$&(that's me cursing)...bang again...thud..." so yeah i'm getting over my fear of crashing...so far the fastest i've been able to push myself is 100km/h...somehow i can't go above that yet...waiting for it to rain though...want to see how i'll fair then..so anyone else got any near death experiences to share???

yeah when i was 16 i was crossing the road on my bike and i didnt see a vitara to my right. so i kaku-ed there. luckily the woman in the vitara managed to swerve and jam-braked and stopped just before she hit the curb and fly into the kindy. Is this considered more like my near death experience or the vitara woman?

also in melbourne a car from the opposite side of the road lost control and crashed onto the car behind the car the car i was in, which was like a few metres away. Is that considered a near death experience?

thats all i got
