Cheating Death

[jasons56]

I've never truely cheated death like some of the amazing stories here. But I should have. God must like stupid young punks, cause I had my days. I'm really carefull now, I know my dumb luck can't possibly last forever.

I've ran through red lights in rush hour at high rates of speed after boiling the brake fluid running best 2 out of 3 in a street race.
I've come around a tight corner in a rural area at around 120 to find a tractor with a 2 lane wide harrow filling all the road. I've lost side mirrors multiple times on the tow rig running wide open to make it to the track on time. I've hunted with idiots with assault rifles that make Cheney look like a gun safety expert.
I've TWICE lost an axle in a high speed highway run on a car with rear drums and single piston master cylinder - once IN a corner at 130.
I've run across the fishing lines of a boat full of bikers near sturgis trying to tune an outboard at WOT and drive it at the same time.
I've got drunk with a crazed vet with a jar full of ears, and then argued war politics with him.
All before the age of 18.
Now I've got two sons as stupid as their father. Which surely means I'll die of heart failure.
