re: What's the closest you've come to dying?

I was about 8 yrs old walking with my cousin on the side of the sidewalk, almost along the curb, during the day. Suddenly I hear a noise and felt the wind of a pick up truck passing by me and going around 30-40 mph. After it passed me, I was able to determine it was a person driving drunk. The pick up truck would go in zig zags and suddenly brake. Then accelerated and kept on going. Scared the shite out of me. Literally it passed by me about a foot distance. Never told my parents.
