I have a couple OK stories

I had a guy run a stop sign in front of me and I T-boned ham. His car flipped back over front and landed upside down on a parked car.

Was running across a big field on a camping trip with my parent (was about 10-12 years old) and jumped over a big hole in the field (the filed was full of gopher and snake holes). Looked down to see a rattle snake kicking it in the hole. Scared the s--t out of me.

Was hauling a-- on a curvy road in an 88 Ford Escort GT. Came around a left hander a little hot and spun the car out. After the spin I was heading straight for a little burm on the RH side of road. Over the burm was about a 80 to 100 foot drop into a rocky riverbed. All four tires were locked up and I could not steer out of it. At the last second my instincts took over and I left of the brakes, cranked the wheel over and punched it. I came about three feet from shooting over the burm and killing myself. All this happened in less than 5 seconds.
