musicismylife78

what tops your list? Im not talking movies or tv here, Im talking real life experiences. you ever met someone so bizaare that it sticks in your mind? You ever witnessed something crazy?

Mine would be i was waiting for a bus and some guy starts talking to me, telling me his name is crazy eddie. he said he was on the run from the law and that he had caught his girlfriend with another guy, and took a tire iron to her face. he spoke this openly, loudly and matter of fact. the people around me werent fazed, it was like, only here in my hometown would something like this happen!

The other is taking the bus to the tenderloin in 2006 to see night 3 PJ. i went with my cousin, we are both from relatively small towns, he more so than i. we stepped off the bus and first thing, some guy approaches us and asks if we want crack. We hadnt even gotten to the hostel yet, we had our backpacks with us, we were literally just off the bus.

When i was little, i saw how a supermarket manager verbally abused an employee with down syndrome it was a kid, and that somehow marked for life, I was around 6 years old but I can't forget the face of the kid feeling like a ant and ashamed of being scream at in from of everyone.

And I saw my mom trapped between two cars, our car parked at the side of the road and some some guy stooped to help us in front of our car, and my mom was passing through the cars and a drunk driver hit our car from behind and my mom absorbed the impact... after a lot of time of therapy my mom walked again without any problem...

I saw a lady blow a red light and smash into the passenger side of the other car going through the intersection. Sound was crazy. We got out of our car and the dude that got hit was in shock and shaking around, eyes in the back of his head. Then I went over to the lady in the other car (whose fault it was) but she was crying hysterically and the airbag was deployed. Nobody else went over to her so I held her hand until the paramedics got there. The other guy turned out to be ok by the time the fire dept got there. The driver of the car that got hit was pregnant and they pretty much rushed her to the hospital. I'm pretty sure she was ok though since she walked to the ambulance

Creed in concert.


Saw a guy pass out and hit the concrete after taking a hit of nitrus oxide. He hit his head pretty hard.

Also saw a drunk guy jump a chain link fence and miss. He face planted on Boston cobblestone road. There was a huge pool of blood.

Two things stick out in my mind....

One was about 4 years ago, I had been out having a few drinks with this girl, in a pretty dodgy area in Sydney. We were waiting for a train about midnight and a guy came up to us, with just short shorts on, jail tattoos all over him and a broken beer bottle in his hand. I was absolutely shitting myself, thinkin oh no..... he says...

'I'm going to fuckin kill somebody'

I was like in shock, and the girl I was with responds...

'Can you do it over there then?'

Heart in my mouth moment.

The other thing, when I was 11, my sister was on a holiday in the U.S and some guy strangled her to within an inch of her death. I guess what I am saying here is, I witnessed the frailties of human life. And how something like that affects someone, and her injuries. And also how it affects the whole family. I think of how close I was to losing my sister whom I love so much. And how if I ever came in contact with that guy, I would bash the fuck out of. Two wrongs don't make a right but I don't care, I would fuck him up. Preying on a young 19 year old was just plain sick....

once i was a passenger in a car (front seat) and we had just started to take off on a green light far right lane.. i just happen at that moment to look out my side window at a vacant lot and saw a body of a person flipping around and around i saw up close a helmet on the person spinning around and around upside down..(the legs were straight up in the air and the head was upside down even with mine like the person was looking right into my eyes and this person hit the side of our car with a big thump..

first thought i imagined it was some sick halloween joke because it was it was october..unfortunately it wasn't.

another motorist behind saw the entire accident and stopped and told us what happened.

a guy and girl was on a motorcycle speeding and weaving in and out of traffic behind us..they hit the curb and a telephone pole right behind us. he was killed..head split in half

..police said she went approx. 117 feet in the air...she survived

Oddly enough, this happened just on Thursday. I live in an apartment building with about 15 units. I parked my car in the garage downstairs after I got off work, and when I walked up the steps to enter the first level hallway to go up the next flight of stairs to my apartment... I couldn't help but be overwhelmed by the most horrid odor I've ever smelled in my life.

It was after 6:00pm, so when I got to my apartment, I called the realtor's emergency line to report it. The guy was asking me a ton of questions and why I would call the emergency line about an odd smell (that wasn't a gas leak). I told him that I was concerned for the tenants on that floor, and that it smelled like someone had possibly died. He proceeded to ask me if I'd ever smelled a dead body before?? Seriously.

He then asked me if I could re-enter the hallway and help him pinpoint the odor. I was trying to be helpful but as I opened the door to that hallway it just overwhelmed me again, and I told him I couldn't do it and to send someone immediately.

Half hour later, our building manager shows up and I hear him pounding on a few doors downstairs. A little while later, I saw him outside, and I ran out to meet him. I told him I had called it in, and asked if it was what I had feared. He told me he wasn't certain yet, but the cops were on their way. He promised to let me know later what it was, even if it was that.

A half hour later I look out the window to see what's going on, and there are cops putting on Biohazard outfits. He came to my door later that evening, and confirmed the guy in the apartment below me had died. An hour after that I'm being interviewed by a cop wearing one of those biohazard jumpers.

The thing that gets me the most about the whole thing is that there are 15 units, and everyone uses that hallway. I didn't get home until after 6:00pm, and not one other person had phoned it in. What the hell?

I got sick twice that night after I knew for sure what it was that I smelled.... gave me nightmares. From what I gather it was not anything crime related, no reporters or anything like that. Poor guy, I'd only seen him a handful of times since I lived here, only in his 50's.

Funerals are quite disturbing indeed. In one year back when I taught pre-school I had to lay to rest (he was killed as his sled slid out into a road and was run over) a 9 yr old student in my before and after school program. In that same classroom later in 1992 I laid to rest a very talented 19 year old assistant who was killed in a drowning accident in the Potomac River. It was a very sad year indeed. :(

My mom was at a butcher's shop and the lady butcher was grinding meat (I know, I know, there's a bad joke in here...) and the lady's fingers got caught in the grinder. My mom couldn't do anything, obviously. I think she screamed, the woman screamed.

The woman was okay, she might've lost the tips of two fingers though.

another very disturbing thing..years ago a close friend of mine asked me to please go with her to a nearby hospital to claim the body of her deceased husband.. he had been hit by two cars and one of the cars had dragged him a ways underneath...

he had been crossing a busy highway after leaving a bar (walking).. i will probably never, ever forget when the woman at the hospital pulled down the white sheet and uncovered a swollen head...dried blood all over his face

I used to work in the veterinary field, and I have seen lots of disturbing things...we all love our pets and I could not share those things here.
The only thing I will say, is I had to handle a decaying body, and will never forget 'that smell'.
