PDA

View Full Version : Almost bit it....


Peacemaker

Enter Peace on a cold rainy day in NYC. I jump on the highway in my car tailing my friends. They are about 500 feet up the road when a semi truck cuts me off. The truck throws up an incredible splash and I cant see. I get out from behind the truck to see a traffic jam two hundred feet up the road. I hit the breaks but my car is hydroplaning. I smack into my friends car at 35mph. The air bag deploys and sends my left fist into the glass spiderwebing it. The car does a flip off the back of his car and lands on the roof knocking me unconsiouce. The car catches fire and my friends drag me to safty. A box of .22 calibure amunition cooks off a few seconds later. I am taken to the ER. After a few hours they released me with the option to stay the night or go home. I went home.

Injury Report-

Fractured Skull
Broken left arm
Broken left hand
Two Fractured ribs
Major Laceration on left arm
Minor lacerations on both arms, legs, neck
Burns across arms, legs, neck

I am alive because I had my seatbelt on. I am hurt because my airbag went off.... Wtf? The airbag did more damage than it prevented.

Holy shit that is scary man. I am glad you are alive. Get well soon.

Take care of yourself and get healed up. :love:

My arms are all bandaged up and burn like mad. The explosive in the airbags covered any skin exposed. Luckily my face didnt get it.

DragonWolves aren't allowed to die in real life without your permission!

Peacemaker, I'm so glad you're alright and maintain a sense of humor about the whole thing. I can't imagine how terrifying it was for you, but I'm so glad that you're alright.

Peacemaker
2004-06-01, 11:23 PM
There was nothing terrifying about it. I am just really fucking pissed off about the airbag, the fact that my car is gone (I loved that car), and I have to worry about funds for the future. I need money for a car so I can go to work. I also need to pay for school. This is gonna be a rough summer.

And the fact that all my hard work with a girl from work is prolly about to go down the shitter because the only time I had with her was riding her home after work. Which always took a really long time considering she could walk home.

Wow.. why didn't you stay in the hosp. if you have all those injuries?

About that airbag - it may've caused some minor burns and hurt you a little bit, but I guarantee that if that hadn'tve fired, there is a 95% chance you would've died.

Glad you're OK man!

35mph is right around the threshold where you might have needed your airbag. Probly not though if you had your seatbelt on.

Glad your "ok".

Cars don't usually filp over each other and burn at 35mph. Ammunition dosn't act like firecrackers. Your tires would have to seriously suck to hydroplane for that long. You definatly wouldn't be released from the ER by a sane doctor after a couple of hours with those injuries, especially not with cuts, burns, fractures, and a head injury.

Call me a skeptical asshole but your story stinks man. :shrug:

Zodiac,

I can personally vouch for Peacemaker. He is an honorable member of my outfit and to have you say those things without even knowing the person is just ignorant. If you feel that his injuries aren't real, why bring it here? Just so you can feel high and mighty about yourself for, what you believe, is something false?

The depths that humanity can go to surprises me sometimes.

Peacemaker, I am very glad you're ok. I've already had too many scares this week (sisters father-in-law, who sort of replaced our father who passed away 2 years ago died of cancer and my godson back in Wisconsin had to be admitted to the University Hospital because he had a very bad allergic reaction causing extreme athsma and also had a severe cold) and to see your post...well, I don't think I can handle one more scare the rest of the year.

Heal up, get better and get your ass up to Albany ASAP.

glad your ok. car accidents suck. having my fair share of em already i know. specially about that airbag part. like for example when i was riding in a car when it hit a combine (yes a fucking combine) seatbelt stopped me only to have the airbag go off in my face breaking my glasses busting up my face and slightly burn me. personally i hate em. I love seatbelts but airbages are hte devil.


just out of morbid curiosity what was the car?

ammunition will cook off if placed in fire.

however, peace, i must ask, .22? hasent anyone ever told you never have amunition unless it starts with a .4? :P

glad your alright though. first 1024 now you, thank god for seatbelts or we would have lost 2 guys, or mabey one seriously injured and you dead.

The depths that humanity can go to surprises me sometimes.Harsh words, but not entirely missplaced ones.

An ignorant post prehaps. But for me to feel high and mighty, no that's silly, I have no personal motives behind my replys to annonomus strangers on the internet. Although I do think his story sounds exaggerated, I don't mean to spit at Peacemaker and I am definatly not laughing at him or his claimed brush with death. I...just find it hard to believe his story. I may have been wrong to have been so impusive as to have posted them my suspicions about the ER still stand. I am sorry I offended you Sentrosi, I didn't think anyone would take me so seriously, much less feel that my comments shame the human race.

Triggar
2004-06-02, 01:53 AM
first 1024 now you

What happened to 1024?

And my ammo starts with a .3 and I could cause as much damage as someone with a .40 or .45 weapon.

I hope everyone is alright!

Would everyone stop gettin' shot!

back a while ago 1024 was in a car crash, car fell on its side, they all had their seatbelts on, so they were cool, and then in the 1024 fashion, he took pictures.

I have to agree with zodiac here on the fact that the story dosen't seem entirly plausable. I am not calling peace a liar. I fully belive that this horable accident occured to the extent that peace says, however the story just dosen't work.

Get well soon peace. Your family to us.

Wow man thats fucking scary. I'm glad you are doin ok man. I've been in a pretty bad accident before too and I know just how fucking crazy it is. (Tho to be honest, my injuries were relatively minimal)

Anyhow, get healed up and stuff, its good to hear that it didn't happen any worse than it did. Hang in there, I'm sure you'll be all healed up in no time.

The hospital didnt let me "go". I sorta escaped after 5 hours.... I hate hospitals.... alot.

BTW when I said it was raining I mean it was a down pour. I couldnt see anything infront of me. Tires can and will hydro at a speed as low as 30mph. Cars can and will flip at that kind of speed, esp a very light car like mine (a corolla), ammo does cook off in a fire. I ask you zodiac have you ever been in an accident before? A serious one such as this that is.

P.S. Strygun, the Airbag did not come into anycontact with my torso or my face, only my arms and the powder covered my body from the blast. Had my airbag not deployed I would be in much better condition.

P.S.S. Thanks for the back up Sentrosi, but no worries I am ok. The worst thing is the whole skull thing which is an inch long crack and a little gash on the very top of my head.

Seriously though, I hope you get better really soon.

Zodiac,

It just seemed to me that you were personally attacking Peace. I have known Peace since he joined up with us and can say for certain that he does not go around making up stories to pity himself with. We can agree to disagree, and that's about it.

I'll always jealously guard each and every one of my Wolves. It's just my nature to do so.

but yeah, airbags...seriously...I think hurt more people than they save, I lost a friend once when I was like 11, his mom was driving with him in the passanger seat, bam, rear ends another car at about 25 mph, nothing huge, but the airbag deployed and broke my friends neck, dead at 11 because of an "life saving device"

:(
