O.O

Most impressive recovery of that type that I've seen was a very tough lady at the karate place I go to getting hit by a bus and recovering within the year, but that's not me.

The first time I got run over was totally my fault, but I was a stoopid little kid.
Ran out into the street after my sister as it was getting dark, and right in front of a car.
SHBAM!  Subdural hematoma, and unconscious for 3 days. Hooray for being dumb!

The other 2 times? Totally NOT my fault. No scary head injuries with those, but in one I did get thrown from a car's rear driver side seat (faulty door latch, old vehicle sans seatbelts) when mom rounded a corner a little too hard, bounced off a nearby fence, and then under the rear tire. Thankfully all I got was a harsh shock and some roadrash.

Last time? Dillweed at a redlight not bothering to check for pedestrians crossing before right turning on red! JERK!

My bicycle? Screwed up from when I had to bail for the curb in an emergency dismount to escape yet another "I can't be arsed to look to my right before whipping around the corner to get my double vente at starbucks" jerk in a red sportscar just about made my day very bad indeed some time ago. I haven't gotten it fixed because it pisses me off every time I look at it.

I've decided that I must have some "people in red sportscars need to run me over!" Sign on me. >:(

The truck went off the road (at over 70mph,) in the early winter. His plow hit the snowdrift I was standing on, launched me up onto the hood and through the windshield. I wasn't seriously hurt, although I did have some aches and minor cuts. The other car that hit me was a Dodge Neon.

I think you should have punched him in the face.

Nah. The old man suffered a panic attack sliding down an icy hill and hit the gas instead of the brake. Shit happens. Besides, he paid my rent for a month to keep me from calling the cops.

That isn't a make/model, but a challenge. And you lost.

The funny story is that I actually won the challenge, insomuch as it could be won. A friend of mine and I got drunk (how most stories start, you know,) and she challenged me to a race. I, not having a vehicle at the time, assumed it would be a drunken footrace, which is always good fun. I went out to the cold, icy driveway, and she came roaring up in her car, backwards. I tried to dive out of the way, and wound up getting clipped by the tail end of the car, bounced off the trunk/rear windshield, and landed on the roof, denting it pretty badly. I was completely uninjured, as far as I am/was aware, due to both hefty snow gear and invincibility from the alcohol.

You really think that's the first time that's happened, MSH?

Rule one: Never act incautiously around wrinkly, bald, smiling old men. Or something to that effect.
