many many many but one towards or at the top of the list was letting a friend drive my car not knowing she was going to drive so fast that she lost control of the car running off the highway into a ditch , flipping at least three times landing upside down with strong fumes of gasoline knowing that my friend was smoking before the accident. we had to roll the windows down to get out of the car.

it never caught fire and all 3 of us walked away. the worst thing is the driver friend had a couple stitches put in her head but she was otherwise fine.

here's where it gets weird. an ambulance was called and it took us to the hospital. on the way there they took our blood pressure. my friends went first and they got their results.
my turn came and the machine registered no numbers. they tried again, same results. i joked that i guess i'm dead.
the emt's couldn't believe we were all so jovial. we were just amazed to be alive.

nobody was wearing a seat belt, it was centrifugal force that kept us in our seats while flipping. brownsville, tennessee, 1991
