Heading back to Ascension Parish on I10 West coming from Nola.
I was about 11-12. Grandpa was driving me. A trailer came unhitched from a car going east bound and came across the median. Thankfully he saw it out the corner of his eye. Swerved and it missed slicing through the front of our car by less than a foot

Drive by shooting off LSU. I was three feet away but homeboy wasn't shooting at me. In fact he shot 2 clips and didn't hit a soul

Was in the military near the Canadian border. Got stabbed by my own men because I wanted to help others cross over into the states. Even got stabbed by a young boy whose life I saved while his village was attacked. His parents were killed. I felt like I was dead for like 2-3 days and came back to life.

Well let’s see…. I flipped a Ford pinto when I was 20. A stump stopped me from going in river. I have drive a pick up truck into the side of a gas tanker truck but got lucky and hit the wheel wells. I was driving my 73 Chevelle at about 120 and misjudged a curve and slid about 200 feet without flipping and ran into a junction box. Became very ill and became septic in 2015. BP bottomed out at like 70/35. Could have died that day. 19 surgeries because of my intestines. That a ton of time being put under. Then had a tree land like 2 ft away from me that destroyed my trailer…

Tidehater you are obviously a seal or some type of “special ops” guy.
Thank you for your service and what I am sure are incredible feats of bravery, courage, and being a general bad arse warrior on missions you can never talk about. Much much respect.

One that comes to mind is a truck tire flew out a truck on i10 and my friend driving my car reacted appropriately so it didn’t hit us. 20 minutes from home after driving to Phoenix/Vegas for fiesta bowl & partying and surely would have done some damage.
Edit: Driving through Loveland pass in CO last winter I lost control on black ice on a downslope and slid towards the side of the mountain and another car, no guardrails.
Saved it by purposely hitting snow embankment with minor cosmetic damage on the right when a turn was coming up I knew I couldn’t take at that speed.
It all happened so fast that I just reacted and my friend was absolutely scared shite less. Just happy to have lived through that.

Hit speeds of close to 140 mph on River Road in the straightaways as a passenger. This was out in the sticks and I was scared shytless. Around 3:00 a.m. many years ago.

Got thrown from the boat last year on MLK Day coming back from a duck hunt. Was in 50F water for 12-15mins. I made some stupid decisions in the early goings of the ordeal that prolonged my stay in the water. Mainly unbuckling my pfd to attempt to take my parka off because it was so difficult to swim with it on. At some point my legs quit working, pulled myself up into a trenasse, rolled up into the marsh grass and was able to crawl towards boat and eventually got to my feet again. Without the PFD, there's no way in hell I'm writing this today. And the only reason I put it on was because I knew it was going to blow out if I didn't.

VBIED at FOB shank or one of the eleventy billion mortars at Abu Ghraib. The mortars became so commonplace I stopped running to the damn bunkers.

Met a girl at a bar one night and I was too drunk to drive so I let her drive I ended up falling asleep to only be woken up right before hitting a culvert in a canal . I broke my wrist and collar bone . Then she fled the scene . Lucky they had cameras on a shop across the street to see it . Otherwise I’d probably gotten a dwi too

Discovered I was stalking the same bull elk as a giant mountain lion. I didn’t see him until he was no more than 50 yards from me.
Decided to let him have the elk.

I had a layover in Chicago once. Now, I appreciate life a lot more.

I was diving in the Tennessee River, end off July, first of August.
A big arse gar got his snout stuck in my net neck bag.
Hilarity ensued..

Actually no...I was an Air Force K9 handler during Reagans war on drugs. I was attached to the 1st SF group out of Okinawa. Army did not have enough qualified narcotics dogs in the mid 80s. I did get to go to a few of their schools and training but I was not SF.
My oldest son is a SEAL and has been for just over 18 yrs. He is getting ready to retire.
