Answer 1

well...here in kalymnos there r brutal freak accidents all the time, so we're kinda used to seeing them happen, almost as if we were watching through tv.

for example: during summer, my friends (three boys) and i were headed home from a night club and we were all on motorbikes. i was with one of the boys, another 2 shared a bike and the last was on his own. so anyhow, we're riding up this sloping road, zigzagging thru narrow roads and it's a little after 4am. we finally reach the end of the road, which connects with a small oneway road. and there are houses on either side so u can't c if anyone's coming ur way.

the bikes carrying two ppl stopped near the end of the narrow street and waited to c if anyone was headed up that road. the fourth and last member of the group (the boy going solo) obviously decided he was ok to go and without checking, just sped out of the street. the rest of us saw the whole thing:

the very instant he exitted the road, as if it were meant to be and had actually been waiting for him to come out, a large truck cae speeding across our line of vision, crashing into the side of his moto and sending it soaring meters into the air! our friend was catapulted out of his seat, thrown over the bike and in mere fractions of a second smashed into the side of a nearby house. we didn't even have time to register what had just happened, when we saw the bike also hit the wall with bone-crashing force. it had fallen right on top of our friend, squishing him and making his body one with the wall.

i was suddenly aware that the driver of the moto i was on was screaming, had abandoned his bike and that i was now on the floor. i felt as though i was living some grotesque kind of nightmare, that i wasn't really there. i dunno, maybe i was in shock, but i couldn't move. i wanted to go to my friend and c if he was alright, but my limbs apparently weren't receiving the message my brain was transmitting.

although i had seen things like - and sometimes even worse than - this, i somehow felt as though i was seeing it for the first time. u may watch these things happen every day on the news or in films but ur never actually "involved" or "attached" with the victims, so it doesn't have the same effect on u. u might know these things really happen, but u never really believe they're gonna happen to YOU.

now my friend is almost two months in a hospital far away from here, in Athens, where he's had two operations to his spinal cord and plastic surgery. the Drs say he may never be able to walk again and that they r doing all that they can to try and make his face recognizable. but i am sure this boy will never be the same.

he is only 18 and two months b4 the accident had been accepted iinto the best medical school in greece. now he'll be lucky if he can ever walk again. he has adamently refused to accept us in his hospital room, for he doesn't want us to c him like this. he had always been self-conscious of his appearance but i believe anybody would after what he's been thru.

anyway...that ain't the only accident i have been witness to, but it is the most recent and the one that shook my world the most and made me think about the fragileness of life.

Answer 2

Car accident when I was younger (about 12)...motorcyclist slid out and dove headfirst into our grill. He got stuck in there and had to be pried out....brain damaged and paralyzed afterwards.Totally shocking and i was stunned. Still flinch when thinking of it.

I'm only 30 but at the risk of sounding like an old fogey....these days we expose ourselves and our children to such graphic violence, sex, adult themes, slaughter house games, horror etc via television, music, internet, movies etc even when we monitor those things.....hell, just walking down the streets these days you hear and see some shocking stuff from folk passing by. I think we have become highly de-sensitized and there is little that we don't think as normal anymore.

I think this is why so many people can sit back and watch these things without giving it too much thought.

Answer 3

That's sick. I am glad I never saw anything that gross. The worst I ever saw was a kid throw an egg at a girl before she got on the bus. The egg was running down her face and all in her hair. She stunk the whole day. And one time a kid threw a big rock at a girl's head and she bled all over the place but luckily she lived. Just alot of blood on the pavement and coming off the side of her head.

Answer 4

Yesterday I saw a car totally consumed in fire in an accident that had just happened. no ambulances or anything there. Inside there was a person engulfed in flames. Yet, I didnt flinch. Although, it was pretty shocking.

Answer 5

Yeah the worst accident I ever had with one of my children was a real accident. I was taking my daughter to the babysitter's house and got hit by a cattle truck. My daughter ended up with a fractured clavicle...so see don't feel so bad about your accident. All kids gets bumps and brusies it's just part of life.

Answer 6

A few months ago, I just missed being splattered in my car, by a runaway car, I spun around the corner just in time to see the runaway car miss me but smash through a bus stop and hit several people, several old folx sitting on a bench were thrown many feet into the wall behind the bus stop. Then the car continued and crushed a woman to death instantly, and I watched her die in front of me. It was very graphic. The reason I did not flinch or freak out was because of my faith in God. I had pulled over and I ran over to the scene but it was too late, it was total carnage. Again, I did not freak out, because I have faith in God. The police brought us all to the station and offered evryone counselling, etc, but I didnt need it because of my faith in God. God's word says to never be afraid of man or a mans ability to kill your body, but instead be afraid of God who has the power to both kill your body and then also cast your eternal soul into hell. The truth of this fact means I will never have to freak out over tragic death, nor will I ever need counselling or have "post traumatic stress disorder" as there is nothing on this earth that can sway or change my knowledge of the truth of God. Pray, and be strong. It works. As for people who then would say "oh we are desensitized", what would they prefer, that we live our lives as damaged people forever? Sounds almost like the wacko vegans and radical animal rights morons who wail and bemoan the death of a chicken to make a "McNugget" but dont give a damn about people or children or babies suffering from hunger or care to give a damn about people who are suffering, they want to blow up people and murder them for eating a hamburger. These are the same people who would freak out and go into 2 years of counselling for seeing a video of a seal hunt. God doesn't want a bunch of freak show mis-guided morons that dont care about people, or starving babies, or other great concerns. Fight the vegan moron animal lovers who place animal life above people and real life starving babies and unfortunate people worldwide. Dont get sucked into the phony animal rights moron movement that denies that human life is worth MORE than an animal!!! God loves you! Jesus Loves You! Amen!
