50 Times People Had Such A Close Call With Disaster, It Made Them Believe In Luck (New Pics)

I'm an occupational health and safety physician. BE LIKE JEREMIAH!

Karma, I salute you.

Definitely not a whale of a time

His life savings if you will, Edit: *bows*

Yes you were! I'm happy you made it out safely and your home was not lost. ❤️

That's awesome. Now please throw that helmet away and get a new one. The outside is just scratched, but the inside is probably broken - that is what a helmet is meant to do to absorb the impact. Please remember that helmets are only good for one good blow. Stay safe.

It'll buff out.

😲❤️

No puns, just a shoutout to the Ukraine soldiers

Almost castrated him, too!

You don't even wanna know the horror stories of people getting hit in the groin protectors in cricket.

So going for a beer is a good idea.

You're buyin' the lottery for sure

I never thought the corona virus was good

Indeed it was.

This is defying both physics and gravity

But who’s gonna clean up the rubbish down in the gorge?

Maybe no flat, but I bet that impact point is going to bubble after some time.

This happened in Haifa, Israel... in a part where the city is built on the Carmel, hill side. There are many buildings that the street is higher than the base of the house... and you go either up or down from street level... the driver lost control over the car an it fell from the street 😅

Omg final distinction and thanks for confirming why I never want to be behind a truck hauling anything like this yikes!!!!

Oh wow, be careful when taking it up too...before it slips.

Aaaaahhhh!! No no no this made me panic!!

Rad piercing

On purpose?

Poor thing :(

Thor, stop it!

Always wear safety glasses, even at home. I don't how many times my glasses have saved my eyes while I'm carving timber

Nailed it!

Luckily, the second boulder caught the mother-in-law as she tried to make her escape further down the road

That would have been alcohol abuse!

My eyes hurt looking at it.

Instant bridge

Or, and hear me out here, don't eat while you're driving. That's just stupid

I'm glad the fish survived - but what a nightmare of a life, trapped alone in a tiny, transparent orb with a couple pink clumps as stimulation.

I'm thinking you made the correct decision. 😯😬👍👍

The most British post on here!

Now that is some serious good luck. 😀👍👍

Seems like it's not out of the woods yet. Maybe even literally

So the gloves are really well made.

Glad the car survived

…and then it fell down and smashed while he was taking a photo of it anyway

PSA: don’t use water to try and put out electrical fires

Do you live in the USA by any chance?

You got long toes!

*takes notes to always park between trees*

Like a glove!

Until you try and reverse it away and accidentally jerk forward a little 😬🙈

I really don't understand this constant need to document everything. It makes for fun Bored Panda articles but come on! You were lucky enough to not drop your keys in the hole and instead of picking them up you decide you are going to chance it and stop to take a picture. Social media really makes some people do dumb $hit

I've seen too many movies to even think about it.

There are specific anti cutting safety sleeves for that kind of work. Please use them, always ! Source : saved my arm from a chainsaw. It's made of mesh and a kind of fiber inside that messes and stops the movement of the chain instantly

You could be been screwed, big time....

Looks okay to me 😄. Not a toe was lost. 😁👍👍

Hopefully there weren't any pregnant ants crossing the road. 😬

Yea, thats normal now lolol ( canceled flights in Portugal i mean, isues between TAP management and workers.... )

It wasn't a CVS receipt right ?

That's why clumsy me only has sealable bottles next to the bed or sofa XD

One time when i was a kid (about 6ys) my mate and I were jumping on his trampoline. All of a sudden a white splat landed on his shoulder and I instantly knew what had happened. My friend however goes "what's that?" And I go "suncream" and laughed, he proceeded to rub it in 🤣😂🤣 I'm still best mates with this guy 35yrs later and still remind him lol

If you've never actually worn these things and are just basing them by how truly ugly they are, you have no idea! These are amazing for your feet in short sessions, they stretch your feet out, your toes, bend your arch a little bit and just feel amazing after you wear them for a bit. But no, I could never go hiking in these things or something.

Uh huh...That's what they all say. 😏 (Totally kidding btw)

In Judaism, it is actually considered a sin to "celebrate" good luck of this variety, that is to say in situations where others have clearly suffered injury or loss. Because when you say you are glad it didn't happen to you, you are basically saying that you are glad it happened to someone else. Instead, we are supposed to be sobered by the fragility and uncertainty of being mortal, and moved to help those in need.

The tree was probably gone by then and could not try to fall on the car again.

I always worried about this and subjecting the public to my bottom. Luckily I only flashed them for a second when my skirt flew up while over a subway grate. It was not a sexy Marilyn Monroe moment. But my second skirt over the head because of wind on State street. Sorry tourists!

Got a hook in my hair once... with the WORM. I scored though, because my crush helped me get it out... 😏

That is a weird lookin key!

But how did she ring without her phone…🤔 (Joking, for those about to point out ways she could have).

That is a rather large nail... just sayin'. 😁
