Relief. There are few feelings as sweet as relief, that warm glow you get as you exhale deeply into a huge ‘PHEW!’ and you realize that a huge shitstorm has just been narrowly avoided.

Here at Bored Panda, we have compiled a list of just those moments, some more serious than others. From almost dunking the spoon handle in soup (the horror), to narrowly avoiding death by chainsaw, this list has got it all.

Scroll down to check out the list for yourself, and don’t forget to vote for your favorites!

    When teaching me how do drive, my uncle was relentlessly emphatic that I should always be expecting little kids to come running rogue like this and to keep an eye for them, in order to be ready to brake. Thankfully I haven´t come to a close call with a kid like this one, but I remain vigilant

    @jace and i understand that but kids don't know any better which is why i stated that parents/guardians needs to pay extra attention - and i do think parenting is one of the hardest job in the world and they're trying the hardest but i'm specifically stating that kids at that age require additional attention is all.

    That Could've Hurt A Lot

    That Could've Hurt A Lot

    I work in lumber and had a customer shift a pile of 4"x4"x12's that my hand was next to. One came tumbling down right on to my fingers. I heard a snap and thought my finger had lost the will to remain unbroken, turns out my tungsten carbide ring caught the full force, broke, but didn't bend and potentially saved me a really chewed up finger. I'd rather replace a ring than a finger any day!

    I found this to be one of the more interesting disasters avoided. The material choice made all the difference. If it were silver or gold it would have had enough ductility to deform rather than break, resulting in a crushed ring. I also found it interesting that if any deformation occurred, it happened exclusively in the elastic region. This makes me want to do 3 things. 1) Get a tungsten-carbide ring myself. 2) Get several tungsten-carbide rings and test them to see if this was a fluke or not. I personally don't think it was. 3) Explore other applications for tungsten-carbide where cracking would be preferable to a large deformation.

    Our cat Carolino (RIP from old age) used to follow my mom EVERYWHERE. She didn't want cats in the kitchen, so she'd usually keep the door closed. One day, she went into the kitchen and tried to close the door behind her but it wouldn't shut all the way so she just kept pushing without looking back. When she finally looked back, she saw Carolino had stuck his head in while following her and she was choking him! From then on, he could go into the kitchen.
