Near Death ExperiencesLast time I crashed my bike, as I flew through the air towards the car in front of me not much went through my head apart from "You idiot". No tunnels, no lights to stay away from, no smiling family members beckoning to me.
Surely you've had a better near-death experience?

Theres been a few........but the one I remember most was when I severed the tendons and artery in my wrist. I skipped up getting out of the bath, put my arm out to stop myself falling and landed on a glass. Bathrooms are stupid places for glass objects, i know, but hindsight is a wonderful thing. Anyway, I heard a 'click' sound, looked down at my wrist and saw bone and a little pipe sticking out about as thick as your little finger, which then proceded to pump out, with every heartbeat,all of my blood. Think Spiderman and his web. Its not a continuous spray, just a rhythmic spurting. Called for help and sat back down in the bath, which was just a soup of me and applied pressure with my knees. Started to feel cold and faint but also remarkably calm compared to the people that came to help me.
when I came to, I was swearing alot at the nurses for some unknown reason. Interesting times lay ahead.
Apologies for no bright lights at end of tunnel.
