Surviving the impossible

By TBH Agencia Exclusiva ColsanitasPublished about a year ago 6 min read

There's going to be a time in our lives When Death knocks at our doors and the only thing we can do is accept Our Fate I mean if we're meant to die then we might as well accept it right but some people defy the odds and they somehow slip away from death's grasp the miraculous survival to horrific scenarios prove that they are either really lucky or they will be involved in real life Final Destination scenarios at some point so here are several lucky individuals who survived the impossible first off we have the luckiest unluckiest guy alive France celak a cro Asian music teacher was born in 1929 he survived not one but six accidents that all could have taken his life his first near-death experience happened in January of 1962 when the train he was riding fell off the tracks and landed in a freezing River 17 of the Train's passengers died but CAC survived with a mere broken arm and a few scratches one year later in 1963 CAC was at death's door again he was riding in a plane and was thrown out due to a door that suddenly blew open 19 people died from that accident but CAC survived a fall from the plane because he very cartoonishly landed on a hay stack the third time was in 1966 when CAC was on a bus that once again fell into a river four people died from that incident but like before cak survived unharmed then in 1970 his car caught on fire when he was casually driving miraculously he was able to escape the car before the fuel T exploded and was once again unharmed in 1973 only 3 years later his car caught on fire again and besides burning his hair off he once again walked away unscathed another bus accident happened in 1995 this time CAC was hit by a bus but didn't receive any major injuries finally in 1996 celac was trying to dodge a oncoming truck on a Mountain Road and it drove off a cliff his car fell 300 ft and exploded but somehow CAC was saved when he landed on top of a tree number two the Lightning Man Roy Sullivan was a forest ranger in Virginia and over the course of his 36 years of working as a ranger he was struck by lightning seven times and miraculously survived all the jolts his first lightning strike experience was in 1942 when the lightning hit his leg and chipped off his toenail the next one struck him in 1969 and it stripped him of his eyebrows and made him pass out in 1970 a strike hurt his shoulder and in 1972 a lightning strike set his hair on fire one year later in 1973 his hair was set on fire once again in 1976 he was struck by lightning but escaped with an injured ankle and finally on June 25th 1977 solivan was struck and received injuries to his chest and stomach resulting in an ugly hospital visit because of all the times he was struck by lighting and lived solivan made it into the Guinness Book of World Records so maybe Zeus was drunk and playing a game of how close can I strike a hen bagen Holm who was a Swedish radiologist in 1999 she was on a ski trip and was hitting down a steep hill when she suddenly lost control of her skis and fell into a frozen stream her upper body fell into a hole that opened up in the ice and she was trapped under the ice for 80 minutes in extremely freezing water the I was almost 8 in thick and she had no way of escaping her feet and skis were above the ice while the rest of her body was underneath during that time Anna experienced hypothermia and circulatory arrest thankfully she was a bble to find an air pocket under the ice which probably saved her life this was a really strange case because people aren't supposed to survive being trapped for even half the time she spent under the ice after she was rescued more than aund doctors and nurses spent 9 hours trying to save her and I woke up 10 days later and eventually recovered completely despite a few nerve problems and finally number five the woman who fell from 33,000 ft you know when you get on a commercial flight and the captain will always come on the PA system and tell you that he's was cruising altitude and it's now safe to move about the cabin now imagine at this point there's an explosion and you come crashing to the ground the chances of survival should be zero but it's not because a woman has fallen from 30,300 Ft and has miraculously survived on January 26th 1972 a flight attendant named Vesna volovic was on a Yugoslav Airline dc9 HED for Denmark when the plane was torn apart by an explosion there were 22 other passengers and crew on board the plane and lesna was the only Survivor rescue workers found her in the mangled section of the plane's tail and she was badly hurt she suffered a fractured skull three broken vertebrae that left her initially paralyzed from the waist down she was then in a coma for 27 days how the plane was brought down is still a mystery some say it was a bomb planted by Croatian separatists others say it was the Czech Air Force but the greatest mystery has to be how Vesna was able to fall from over 33,000 ft in the air survive and then make a full recovery and is still not afraid to fly I've actually had a real life near-death experience myself and I told this story in a couple of videos before anyway I was like 6 years old in China and uh there was this little mini Highway in front of our apartment complex and I remember one day me and my friend were playing and we saw a school bully who would always pick on us and he was running towards us with like like a stick or something like he was going to beat us up and we got kind of scared so we darted across this highway without looking because we were just trying to run away from him and I remember at the time the traffic was going so fast all we could see was the headlights just moving so quickly but we didn't even look we just ran across the road and for some reason he was able to follow us across the road then we decided no let's run back so we ran back and for a split second I hesitated I stopped in the middle of the road and all I felt was Wham and I flew up I think I don't know how high in the air but I knew it was high because later when I talked to my friend he said he was laughing really hard because I flew so high anyway I was knocked into the air um all the traffic stop on the road um I'm lying there the truck driver comes running to me he's like oh oh my God I got to get you to the hospital because you know I can't believe I just hit you with all that force and the only thought in my head was no I just got to go home so I told him I'm like no I'm okay I'm okay I'm going to go home and by this time I was surrounded by people because everyone saw this and they were all like oh my God this kid is like kid should be dead if he's alive we got to take him to a hospital so everyone was trying to take me to a hospital I was like no no no I'm really I'm okay I'm okay I walked around for them and they really saw that I was okay so then they let me go only later when I got home I was like Mom I got hit by a truck so then she started freaking out and took me to a hospital to make sure I was okay and I didn't have a scratch on me so I don't know how these things happen I do believe in fate I do believe that we all have a certain time that's our time and um other times it's not our time so we'll be safe No Matter What or I'm going to get Final Destination off later but let me hear your thoughts about all this and if you have a near-death experience story to share post it in the comments below thank you all so much for watching this video see you
