Title: Gnarly things you've seen.
Post by: 360 frip on April 05, 2013, 01:24:15 AM
Not sure if there is a similar thread, if so, sorry...

I was coming home from a skate yesterday. Top deck of a tram.

Some Filipino middle aged women trying to cross the road.

They has suitcases and decided to dodge across the 1st two lanes as it turned to red.

At this point three or four of them stop.

Our tram is leaving but one women keeps on going, frogger style.

The tram lets her pass.

She's laughing and looking back at her friends. Instead of stopping, she doesn't look left and keeps on going.

Right into a bus. Our tram kept moving...

If were doing bus stories...

When i was about 10 i was walking home from school, then i saw a big crowd of people, so naturally i worked my way around to see what the crowd was about. That was a mistake. What i saw was a man directly under the wheel of a bus, like the bus had purposefully tried to park on-top of him. His ribs and general torso area were crushed and there was a fuck ton of blood pouring out of him all over the pavement, pretty sure he is gost now.

one time i was riding the bus home from middle school and it was raining, i was with my best homebwaye at the time and all of a sudden we looked out the window and shit was moving sideways all craze like. then we felt the bus tip a little bit and then land back on four wheels. we had did the warren g and went up on dat two wheel motion cause the driver lost control. instead of asking if anyone was hurt or if we were ok, the driver just reversed out of the small court of houses we almost destroyed and kept on driving like nothing happened. not a word. we were almost gost.

I recently walked to a shop near my house. On my way home, I heard a woman screaming from just up ahead. Along with a couple of other pedestrians, I ran round the corner to find a man, probably in his 50s, holding his face which was pouring blood. The woman who had screamed was comforting him and told us he'd just been attacked by a guy with a knife who she presumed was trying to steal his phone. She pointed us towards where the attacker had ran off. A whole bunch of dudes were already running over there giving chase and, being a pussy, I stayed to see if there was anything I could do to help the man who had been cut.

The police and ambulance arrived and a crowd kinda gathered but nothing really happened for a while so I went home. A few hours later, I went back to see what was up and found that the police had cordoned off a nearby street and, in the distance, I could see that they had the dude on the ground. From speaking to bystanders, it seemed that the guy wasn't trying to steal anything at all, he was just running down the street cutting people at random. Nobody got killed or anything, but it was pretty scary considering it happened at like 1pm on a sunny day in a busy and relatively safe area.

-

Also, not super gnarly but a few years back on the same street, I saw someone chasing a really sketchy looking junkie guy with a frying pan. The junkie had a giant lump on his forehead and seemed really disorientated. As they ran past a bus shelter, a big guy grabbed the junkie, slammed him to the ground and sat on him while the man with the frying pan called the police. Story was he'd sneaked into the dude's house to steal stuff, got caught red handed and took a couple of whacks to the face with the nearest blunt instrument.

Once I was driving  to a friend's house at around noon on a hot July Saturday, so there was almost no traffic. As I was coming up to a major intersection I see a guy to my left run a red light and crash into a car (that came from his left and had a green light) making it flip and crash into a lamp post. My jaw dropped cause this was like a scene from a movie. The guy who caused the crash got out of the car and the first thing he checked was the damage to his own car. I dialed the local equivalent of 911 but no one answered. Luckily there were some pedestrians who were there so I just let them deal with it. I hope the guy went to jail (probably didn't, though).
But yeah, a car flipping over is a pretty crazy sight, plus the guy not giving a shit about what he did to the people in the other car, so fucked.

got a few stories to share...

way back in 2001 or so we basically had oktoberfest in our town and some friends and i got into a fight with some thuggish dudes. one of my homies was a real giant, super big and pretty burly, when he was coming up to what appeared to be their boss or whatever, the guy pulls out a pistol and points it at my homie. coplights were flashing up and our opponents chose to retreat. my friend said he wasn't even sure if that thing was real at the moment but seeing this guy pull out a piece was still pretty gnarly to me.

over the course of several years of going to different people to get weed, i have encountered several funny guys that chose to point their guns at me for pure laughs. i never found it funny, you assholes.

i used to do some graffiti in my teenage years, but later i just went with the others to just lurk around and look for cops or something while they are doing their thing. there were some intense moments for sure, like dodging trains, the occasional run from a person you think could be a cop and so on. i feel to old for this now. i would get a heart attack. i can't even watch brutal horror flicks anymore. oh well...

a few years ago, we were skating this little plaza until late into the night and got pretty drunk in the process. this cute girl comes up up and starts to hang out with us. i'm already psyched, because she was hot and seemed really smart and we both got along quite well. let me just say her boyfriend later on threatened me with a knife. it was super dark, i didn't hit him with my board, it was like a ten minute standoff, i only saw the knife blink up and didn't really know where to hit so i just kind of used my board as a shield and yelled pretty ridiculuos threats at this guy. someone must have called the cops, as soon as they showed up, the guy and his friends backed off and ran away.

anyone out of hamburg, germany on this board is probably familiar with the flora bowl, a diy bowl behind a squatted house in one of the most popular areas in hamburg. next to the flora there is small park where a lot of drug dealers dwell, especially on the weekends. one night, two of them got into a heavy fight right next to the bowl. i can only imagine they both were on cocaine or something. every sober person would have already passed out. we saw how the one guy beat the other in the face with a brick, each one broke a beer bottle over the other guys head, both seemed to pass out at least twice, then getting back up again and charging again at each other. these guys were going for a kill for sure. not even their friends could hold them back. it all ended with one of them getting stabbed and carried away by an ambulance while the other tried to get away from the cops but supposedly didn't make it and most likely went to the hospital, too. the gnarliest beat up i've ever seen. it was the kind where you feel compelled to yell "stop it!!!" but you just have to accept that you can't prevent these idiots from beating each other to death.

after a night out drinking, some friends and me chose to smoke some weed on our way home and rest at a small plaza. this ragged but good natured looking dude comes up to us, asking for a cig. he then off course smells the weed and doesn't even ask for a drag, just says he loves that smell. we offer him to smoke the rest of it, since we were all good already. he is super grateful and basically tells us where hes at in his life. said he is 28, hiv-positive, just coming back from frankfurt to get his heroin fix, and basically dead, because he also has cancer and has been an alcoholic for the longest time so his liver is fucked too. he said we were the first people in a long time that just treated him like a random dude and how happy it made him. he then burst into tears, saying "thanks for looking out for a dead man" and leaves.

People just blown out on drugs or alcohol in public is pretty fucked up every time.

When I was six, I broke the tibia and fibula bones in my right leg in half in an accident. The sight of my foot and leg below the break flopping around like a fish afterwards is something I'll never forget.

Back when I was 5 or 6 I guess I've witnessed a suicide. Say I guess because I do not remember anything about that, my mother once told me that but we never spoke of that again. It was a middle east dude jumping off an hotel window in spain.

Then in 2010 I went to venice beach and walked on the classic street where the skatepark is at and saw a junky laying on a bench, he wasnt sleeping, after a while ambulance came and took him away. Also a friend of mine saw a clochard getting shot in SF

When I was 7 or 8 and living in NY, my dad was walking me to school as we came up to this crowd of people on this sidewalk. They were all staring at this truck that was just sitting there and as soon as we passed through, we saw there was a woman under the truck. My dad gave me to trustworthy businesswoman and he went to tend to her. I was honestly pretty oblivious to the whole thing and was showing these two women all of my basketball cards. They were pretty nice and maybe that's why I wasn't paying much attention to how fucked up the situation really was. I do remember that a firetruck, that I assume was responding to it, made a wrong turn and passed right by and everyone was yelling. When we got to school, my dad was just explaining why I was late and I guess listening to him actually say it upset me and I burst out crying. I remember years later, my dad told me that he had read the woman had been crossing the street, got hit and run over by the front wheels, and later died from her injuries.

This past winter, I was driving into Baltimore to shoot some photos with a friend when I came up to some backed up traffic. I could see that there was an emergency roadcrew-type truck there, but no cops, ambulances or anything else. They were directing everyone to the far left lane to get by and I eventually made my way up to the incident. I thought it was some dumb fender bender that they needed to move off the road, but as I passed by, I saw a man's body laying there with all of his limbs completely broken and his head facing the wrong way. Driving a little more, I saw a 18-wheeler just sitting in the shoulder and I put 2 and 2 together. I read that the guy was running across to get something and got hit by the truck. I had never seen anything quite like that in real life so I was a bit freaked out.

And I'm with ttching! I really hate seeing so many addicts out of it. It's just really sad.

During my time in the ER I have seen a few people die.  The worst one was when the family was in the waiting room, and their father was dead, but they did not yet know it and they kept asking me about him when I was calling in other patients.  What do you say to them?

My last visit to Chicago a while back (think it was 06?) I was eating ice cream out in front of this shop and saw this woman get run over and killed by a truck.

The fucked up thing was, it was at a four way stop and the truck was just doing what he was supposed to do...he stopped at the stop sign and this woman walked in front of his truck but she was really short and he couldn't see her over the front (hood?) of his truck, so he just went forward and basically ran her over really slow. She was trapped under the wheels and people were screaming and running over. It was pretty tragic. I didn't know she died until I looked for it in the paper and found it. I was bummed. Poor girl...just out walking around one minute and then dead the next.

The ice cream tasted like poo after that.

A long time ago at this indoor skatepark in atlanta I saw some girl on rollerblades try to drop in on the 12 foot vert ramp & she literally fell straight to the bottom flat on her face and lost some teeth. Blood all over her mouth n shit. i was like 12 years old so i was kinda shook for a lil bit lol.

Another time me & a buddy were skating to some spot and all of the sudden we see like 3 cop cars whiz by and like half a block away theres this huge drug bust in the middle of this liquor store parking lot. The cops pulled out their guns & arrested some chick & a dude. we then saw a cop pull out one of those really big ziplock bags filled with what looked like cocaine out of the suspects car. me & my friend were just sitting in someones lawn across street in awe.

Busing downtown and we were going down a hill and I was looking outside the window and this biker was going fucking mach 10 down the hill on the sidewalk going past shops and this lady and her baby come out of a shop and the dude crashes into the lady and her baby, they all go flying and the baby does at least 5 barrel rolls, the lady smacks into a dining table. I literally yelled "Holy shit!" in the bus and everyone looks at me and I go "Did anyone see that?" they all look at me like im crazy. I don't know what happened to them though.

Another one was I was at a mates b day party and he had this camera taking photos of everyone and tells me and my other mate to look after it so we go looking through the pictures and we come across photos of someone heating up spoons and shooting up, then we scroll some more and there's a picture of like 4 fat lines of coke, various amounts of neon colored pills, one of those huge bottles of Jack, an ounce of weed and me and my mate looked at each other like what the fuck?

We had a guy in our squadron who developed schizophrenia while on our first deployment to Afghanistan. You could totally see the psychological break down he was having over a period of a few days. Just completely losing his touch with reality. The Commanding Officer scheduled him the quickest flight home to get him some help. We were launching a big mission that day, so everyone was out loading up the helicopters, and as I'm checking my gear, I realized I left my NVG's back in the shop. I run back, open the door, and he is sitting there with a M16 in his mouth, and our Gunnery Sergeant trying to talk to him. The kid mumbles something, and pulls the trigger. I had to go on a four flight after that, and then patrol for 3 days. It didnt even seem real.

I could literally tell dozens of stories from different deployments. Afghanistan, Iraq, the tsunami relief in Japan. Walking Street in Thailand. Craziest shit ever.

Me and some friends were in SF for the first time about a month ago. We stayed at some shady motel in a pretty sketchy neighborhood. Can't remember the adress, but it was pretty close to Market Street. Anyways; One night we were about to smoke a joint before we went to bed, so we decided to take a walk around the block since it was a non-smoking motel room, and we weren't to psyched on having to pay extra if the room smelled like weed. So we went outside, and just cruised around while we smoked the joint. Suddenly we came across this ledge that looked like fun, so we stopped and checked it out. And while we stood there these 3 or 4 white dudes(which seemed to be in a hurry) comes up to us and asks if we want to trade some bottles for some trees. We thought the whole situation was pretty sketchy, so we said like "nah, we're good. Thanks" and they kept walking/jogging, and then a bunch of black dudes came running, and one of them stops and pulls up his shirt and shows us his gun and says something. I was high as fuck and pretty much scared to death(haha), so I didnt catch what he said.
About 1 minute later 4 or 5 cop cars comes drifting around the street corner, and we're like in the middle of an episode of Cops. There was a black BMW making a run for it, and people were running everywhere.

Guess they had robbed a liquor store or something.

This might be a daily routine for some of you guys, but for me, who's grown up in a small and peaceful town in Europe, it was pretty gnarly.

Saw someone eat shit skating stairs and compound fracture their leg.

A line of 6 dead bodies on the side of an overturned van. Each covered in white sheets soaked with blood.

Was at a party in Irvine of all places (one of the safest cities in the US), and heard gunshots. Walked outside and saw a guy bleeding from his stomach on the ground.

Was in Oakland, walking down the street at night and see a guy nonchalantly walking with a shotgun. We dart into my friends house and hear a full-on shootout going down two houses over.

Just recently heard a shooting and saw a post-shootout stampede during a street festival. Strange seeing a look of terror on the face of hundreds of people at the same time.

Saw fast moving and dense traffic all slam on their brakes at once, but no clue what was going on. Huge cloud of smoke from all the brakes and tires. Then a car emerges from the smoke spinning on it's roof, skidding down the freeway.

Saw a cop in France punch a woman in the face - wasn't really too crazy considering some fights I have seen in 3rd world countries, but it was just shocking to see a huge man punch a woman in the nose. She was bleeding A LOT.

Speaking of third world fights, guess I will mention one that was pretty gnarly. Within the first 30 minutes of being out of the airport in East Timor (google it), I see a guy break a chair over another dudes head and immediately start choking the woman he was with. I was in a car, driving by and the people I am with say "Welcome to Timor".

And fuck it, if you want me to be honest about the gnarliest - I held my mother in my arms as she was puking bile and died. 3 years later I found my father dead on the floor.

Car chase in down town sydney . really weird since there is a shit load of trafic even at night time .

Saw a dude with a cracked skull in poland , we just walked by and saw the dude laying on the ground mid city . It was with my hockey team so the coaches just told us to move on and they would call a ambulance .  He didnt look to be breathing and the blood pool out of his head was big . Never got told what happend but that was the first dead dude I think I saw

Another time while doing warm ups with the hockey team out in grass field / bike patch . One of the dudes felt sick and was gonna head back , pretty much out of nowhere a car showed up  down the bike path , dude had to kinda rush away so he didnt get hit .

The coach that was with us was ex special forces and basicy just walked into the middle of the bike path and just stood there with his hands on his hips while the car was racing against him . Dude didnt fucking move at all . the car took a sharp turn to avoid him and then we saw a cop car coming up from the other side of the path

one of the bravest / stupidest things Ive ever seen a dude do

Ive seen some nasty burns and cuts from working in the kitchen . Some dude droped about 10 Liters of boiling water on his arm . People burning their faces on steam when opening up ovens

I have some others but cant think of them right now

In 2010 I was in Kuala Lumpur. I was only a couple of hours off the flight but had had a couple of beers and eaten some tasty food. I was having a blast when all of a sudden this guy went flying past me and smashed into the concrete. He had been riding his motorbike down the wrong side of the road and hit a car or swerved I'm not sure. I still remember his head hitting the concrete. It was really brutal, his eyes rolled back in his head and he started to twitch a bit. His forehead looked dinted and I was pretty sure that he was dead. This happened within 1-2 meters of me so naturally I was pretty freaked out and yelled for someone to call an ambulance. People started to crowd round and my mate suggested we bail as there wasn't much we could do-figured better to let a local sort it out. I went back down to where it happened an hour or so later and asked the store holders what ended up happening. They seemed completely blas? about it, oh he was just drunk he will be fine. I dunno about that, the guy looked pretty fucked.

In 2009 I was in Tripoli in Lebanon. I was staying at a small hostel that was just a family home with a couple of beds in the spare room for guests. The city is known to experience civil unrest so I was pretty scared when machine gun fire started nearby. For about an hour or so there was a steady stream of gun fire, the red streaks visible in the night sky. Being from Australia, I am not used to random machine gun fire so was pretty stressed out. No one at the place I was staying at spoke any English so I couldn't get an understanding of what was happening. I sat in my room with this old Syrian man and he shared his bread and yoghurt with me whilst we listened to the gun fire. He didn't speak a word of English either (I spoke next to no Arabic), it was a really solemn moment, like the last supper or something. All I could think of was that I really appreciated this guy sharing his bread with me and keeping me company. I later found out that the gunfire was in celebration of a local politician. The people I was staying with thought it was a bit funny that I was worried, must be a common occurrence I guess.

This doesn't compare to some of the shit in here, but I thought I would contribute.
A couple years ago I was on a train home from skating, and we get to a stop, the doors are open and I could hear the PA system from the station saying something about a fugitive/criminal being in the station and that he just got off a train fleeing a crime. Everyone in my train is exchanging nervous glances and then we see a hooded and masked guy with a backpack running out on the platform about 10 feet in front of us. An older transit security type who is not even a real cop tried to tackle him, and they both ended up on the ground. They wrestled for a second, and the hooded guy reached in his pack and grabbed a can of spray paint and just blasted the guy right in his eyes. He was spraying paint into dudes eyes for about 5 seconds straight, and then took off running. Right then there was a ding, and our doors closed and we took off. No one in our train said a word the rest of the way home. I cannot begin to imagine what that would feel like.

Damn, compared to most of you, what I have isn't that gnarly, but I'll post it anyway.

When I was probably around 5-7 I saw a slightly underdeveloped horse fetus/foal in the dumpster behind my dad's vet clinic. The thing has basically no skin and was all bloody and gross. Only saw it because the dumpster was pretty full and it couldn't fit inside since it was a horse.

Then in 3rd or 4th grade I was walking up the stairs to our apartment and heard a big crash and ran up and looked out the window. This crazy ass lady hopped up on meth crashed her truck into the fence across main street from our place and two cop cars showed up immediately, guns drawn and yelling at her to, "get out of the fucking car!!!" Then they got her out and two big cops were holding her, yet somehow she body slammed them into the concrete with her, breaking her nose bad. The finally restrained her and got her away. I think at least 6 cops showed up in our tiny town of 1,500 people at that point.
The crazy part was she hit a car right outside my friends place and a tire went flying onto the sidewalk. We were walking on that not a minute before on the way to my place. it was sketchy. She was going 80+ in a 25mph zone.

not that gnarly in a gruesome sense, but still crazy to witness.

on christmas day me and my parents were out driving looking for a car repair place because my car was kinda fucked (i rear ended someone like a dumbass the day before). Anyways, since its christmas the roads are pretty mellow, a few other cars and shit. Were driving down a road, when out of seemingly no where a nice ass mercedez zooms past us.
Literally when the car got like 20 feet ahead of us, they somehow lost control and started to rotate/skid across the street. With all that momentum built up, it even flew over the medium which fucked the bottom of the car, and completely fucked the tires.

My dad still drove on like a person haha and my mom started screaming "stop!". In the end their were two people in the car and they got out of the totaled car fine. we drove back past them and it looked like some jersey shore douche bags. the driver looked super bummed making a call on his phone lol.

I didn't witness the suicide but there was a whole section of my apartments blocked off one day while I was skating around. I saw like 2 or 3 dudes in these hazard suits just covered in blood. The mom or whatever was being held by one of her female relatives yelling, "Why him?!?! Why?!?!?!?!", crying hardcore. Shit was intense.

Oh, There was this old guy that was stabbed not too far from where I stayed. Once again, didn't see it go down. It didn't affect me in the slightest. Everyone at school was crying over it but I was just there thinking "Yeah, it sucks but everyone goes". I guess since my Grandfather died, I hardened up a lot emotionally.

Had to watch my dog almost bleed to death after being attacked by a German shepherd that lived in my street.

Skating in the city one time and saw a dead body covered in a white sheet, blood all over the place, dude had suicided off the building.

Watched my mum have a heart attack, it was only a minor one but fucking traumatizing.

Drunk as fuck 2 am Tijuana Mexico. 16 years old going to the strip clubs for the first time with a group of homies. I'm in the club and the lights are dim. Coherent enough to notice a group of other dudes making a loud commotion over one of their friends. I look over since they are to my immediate left and there it was, a TJ stripper bent the fuck over with her panties to her ankles and that drunk dudes tonguing the fuck out of her bare ass. Gnarliest thing I've ever seen for sure

About 6 or 7 years ago my friend was driving another friend and I home from a skate park. We pull up to this light and there's a huge lifted bro truck filled with bros next to us asking if we wanted to race. My friend turns to them and says no man. Light turns green and my friend speeds up to get in the right hand lane as we were about to make a right hand turn at the next street. The bro truck takes that as a challenge and speeds up switches to the left hand lane but as they were doing that the car in front of them was doing the same thing and he jerked the steering wheel to avoid the car and went onto the median. This part was in slow motion straight of a movie. The truck loses control on top of median rolls twice does a flip while knocking over those arms that come down at railroad crossings. It then lands right side up and one of the wheels is just rolling down the road. Turns out my friend in the back seat knew everyone in the truck as we passed by. Everyone was ok but the kid driving was freaking out and his face was all bloody.

In P.E. two friends of mine would do this thing called table topping where you go and kneel on your hands and knees behind someone and then the other person would push them and they would fall backwards over the other person. This one day they were talking getting this kid the whole class at the end of class perfect opportunity comes up. As he falls over the kid kneeling I guess his knee was in the weird position and he fell back and broke his leg and it was twisted in some weird way I never want to see again.

In cambodia I saw a few traffic accidents, a poor guy was left with his neck in a completely wrong angle.

In country australia you see a lot of gnarly traffic accidents. Drove past one late one night, the authorities were removing a telegraph pole from where it had speared into the cabin of a truck, there was a lot of blood.

also when I was younger I travelled through pakistan, was really gnarly the way people had to live out in the desert.
I was lucky enough to visit Mohen-Jo Daro, a 4500 year old forgotten city, the ancient egypt of the sub continent.  Amazing place, skeletons and bones everywhere from where the city flooded and was lost.

I ran cross-country in high school.  My friend/teammate and I were running north downhill from the school when we passed Raley's, a local supermarket.  There was a crowd gathered with police, firetrucks, and an ambulance.  We ran through to investigate.  At the center of the crowd was an SUV with blood splattered all over the interior windshield and a man's head propped up against the driver's side window.  Apparent cause of death:  self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.

Thank God I didn't see it happen, but I was on a trip to Chicago and when I got to my room, a guy had committed suicide by jumping on the roof from the building next to mine. They just had a blanket over him and he landed literally right next to a cafe with outside seating where people were sitting. That would be insane to be eating dinner and have a dude just fall out of the sky next to you. The thought of it freaks me out.

I've seen some fucked up things while in emergency operating room but after a while shit just doesn't feel that gnarly anymore. When I see someone twisting an ankle at the park it feels worse than seeing some random people's guts spread all over the operating table.
One thing comes to mind though. At one night we got a call from paramedics that there's been a car accident with some teenagers in it. One of the teens had died already at the crash site and two others were brought straight in. The other was like 15-16 year old girl who had dislocated hip and minor broken bones and pieces of shattered windshield all over in her face. Her nose was almost ripped off and she was just shaking before set under anaesthesia. The other survivor (about the same age) came in with his both femur bones broken in two, which looked pretty gnarly. Though he was so well medicated he was like "that's nothing". They didn't have clue that the driver had died.

Other one was couple of years ago. We were sitting at some park and this middle-aged dude drove with his bike down the cycle lane when a truck driver parked next to the lane suddenly opened the door right in front of the 30mph-blazing-cyclist. Dude crashed the door and took a nasty flipping tumble down the pavement ending up bloody and unconscious. Heard a couple of months after that from a friend of mine that the cyclist had "mid-severe brain damage" and couldn't go to work anymore and had all kinds of mental problems too. The helmet he was wearing probably saved his life but still..man.

I saw a cat get run over once. I'll never get that image out of my head.

Some kid in my middle school was trying to jump some stairs on his mountain bike and he ate shit, resulting in the gnarliest compound forearm fracture I've ever seen. It seriously looked like a movie prop. Just a perfect white bone sticking out of his arm. No blood, which was weird.

Also saw a rollover accident before any paramedics came, and there was a seemingly lifeless arm hanging out of the drivers window.

Rememberd one more

Back in the day in like 4th grade or so . We used to play with marbles , the shittiest ones were the ones that were basicly just stone with some color on it . Basicly they were the shittiest one and you could give them away to others and not be botherd

Anyways at the school play ground we had this big tower and what we used to do was throw away marbles down the side of the tower and have other school kids try to catch them / fight for them . When we threw away the stone ones , we used to shout " Stone rain "and throw them down .

Well I had the bright idea to bring a brick up the tower , shout stone rain , throw the brick down and ofc I clocked one dude in the forehead .  Dude just dropped . straight down , big gash and some blood and he just lied there . I didnt even see the blood until later , second the kid dropped I sat down , my friend did the same , He looked fucking shocked and I just said " Holy shit I Killed him "

Anyways , dude got away with a concusion and a gash / stitches , I got in alot of trouble  ,

Just remembered another one after hearing that brick story^

I was in 4th or 5th grade & went to some hoghschool basketball game with my half-sister & her fam. I was hanging out in the commons with her brother Jay who's around my age playing with some other kids. We're playing soccer or some shit with a bottle & Jay (on defense) did this lil running sweep kick to save the ball without looking up & he ran head first into the corner of this brick pillar. Blood pretty much running down his forehead n shit so after wrapping his forehead we ran to the hospital. I don't remember exactly what he did other than getting a concussion but when he came home from the hospital a couple days later he had to wear sunglasses for like 2 weeks because his eyes were super sensitive to light like when you have migraines. Dude ran into that pillar hard as fuck he got knocked back & fell on some cartoon shit

Also, a couple years ago we were visiting my girl's family in eastern Washington and her cousin's 4 month old baby died from some type of heart failure. So we get the news and go with her family to the hospital where all of these people I don't really know are crying and passing around this dead little baby girl that is like a grayish purple color and kissing it and stuff for like 4 hours. It was pretty sad.

The dead baby one reminds me of my duties of being a medical photographer where I was called in to photograph every fetal demise at the hospital.  I photographed fetuses that were between 15 weeks to full term during my 3 1/2 years at the hospital.  Worst phone call to receive in the middle of the night.  "Sorry to wake you up, but we need to take pictures of a dead baby at 2am."  Fuck that shit.

This doesn't compare to some of the shit in here, but I thought I would contribute.
A couple years ago I was on a train home from skating, and we get to a stop, the doors are open and I could hear the PA system from the station saying something about a fugitive/criminal being in the station and that he just got off a train fleeing a crime. Everyone in my train is exchanging nervous glances and then we see a hooded and masked guy with a backpack running out on the platform about 10 feet in front of us. An older transit security type who is not even a real cop tried to tackle him, and they both ended up on the ground. They wrestled for a second, and the hooded guy reached in his pack and grabbed a can of spray paint and just blasted the guy right in his eyes. He was spraying paint into dudes eyes for about 5 seconds straight, and then took off running. Right then there was a ding, and our doors closed and we took off. No one in our train said a word the rest of the way home. I cannot begin to imagine what that would feel like.

Another one I remember, unfortunately.

Walking home from the shop alongside the highway and there's a shitload of traffic and all of a sudden I hear a dogs bark, I look up and there's this golden retriever on the other side of the road, the most purest gold coat ive ever seen on a dog. It see's me and starts to come towards me from across the road. Im trying my hardest telling it to stop and stay but the bastard doesn't listen, there's a loud beep and then a loud bang. I dropped the bag of munchies I had and waited for the cars to pass, the poor fella's coat was just soaking in a pool of bright red blood the back half of his body was crushed and his whole body was shaking but I knew he was already dead. It was the first time I cried over something dying.

man laying in a bathtub bleeding and cleaning himself, looked like he was stabbed in the stomach, same job

a violent leg snap, of a friend trying to switch kickflip a huge gap after too many beers, I was being a board goalie standing right in front of him and he was wearing shorts... ugh

one of the coolest things I've ever seen though was last summer, this place that manufactures racing fuel exploded near my house.  at first it was just a little smoke and I wanted to check it out so i rode my bike over to see what was up and ending up getting there just in time to see a massive mushroom cloud explosion of gas erupt into the sky, the ground shook like crazy and the heat that radiated off it was intense, 15 million dollars worth of gas, so fucked

A few years back, My buddy Jim and I decided to meet up and hang out one night. We didn't really have much to do, so we just posted up in a random parking lot and he loaded his piece and we smoked a couple bowls. After we finished smoking we just sat there in his truck for a bit and listened to music on his stereo, enjoying our high. He gets a text about some party that's going on that night, so he starts his truck and we get on our way. We reach a stop light after a few minutes of driving, and in front of us is an ambulance. This particular ambulance had windows on the back doors, allowing you to see into the ambulance. We saw two EMTs in the back, using defibrillators on a body that was on a stretcher. After shocking the body a couple times, both EMTs look at each other, then they put their heads down and one of the EMTs proceeds to take a blanket and cover up the body on the stretcher. My buddy Jim and I look at each other, still both really high, and we're not really sure what to say to each other. We were just in shock of what we saw.


 It was my senior year, last year of high school, and me and my friends were trying to make the most of it by having the craziest weekends we could possibly have. One particular weekend, my friends David and Major (who were both brothers) decide that they were going to sneak their step dads car out one night and go joy riding. Me, being the naive and thrill seeking 17 year old that I was, jumped right on board with the idea, and at 10 PM on that one particular Saturday night, they snuck out the car, picked me up, and we were off to get the night started. They decided to also pick up their friend Pat, who was this obnoxious fake gangsta kid, who I guess wasn't that bad to hang out with in small doses, but he got on my nerves super easily. We picked him up, and the second he gets in the car he tells us of this house party that's going on on the other side of town. We drive out there, only to see that the party had already been raided and shut down. Pat recognizes three of his homies who were sitting outside on the curb in front of the house. We end up chit chatting with them for a bit, and they somehow convinced David and Major to let them tag along with us for the night, so now we have a car that is pretty much packed to the roof with people. We drive around for a bit, when one of the dudes mentions that there is a guy who lives not too far away from where we were at that they all had some beef with, and he wanted to stop by there real fast to take care of it. We stop at the dudes house, and the three dudes get out of the car and head for the house. Me, Pat, Major, and David are just chilling sort of near the house, but not quite in front of it. The three dudes then start to pound on the door, and they start yelling for the person they had beef with to come outside "and take your punishment like a man". He comes outside, and they all start arguing on the front lawn. Then, one of the dudes out of nowhere pulls out what looked like a crow bar that he must have had in his pants or something and proceeds to just whack the person they had beef with right in the face. He falls down, and he continues to whack him on the head, over and over again. It was fucking gnarly. Blood everywhere. Before we could even react, his dad comes out, and he had a gun in his hand. He starts shooting at the three dudes who were beating up his son, but they book it immediately down the street, blending in with the night. The dad then spots us standing near the house. At this point, we are all in shock of what we just witnessed, and we were kinda just frozen there in shock. The dad then points his gun at us, and yells something that I cannot remember, then he lets out two or three shots aimed right at us. We all immediately run to the car, get in, and we booked it out of there. David and Major end up popping a tire on the way home, and their step dad finds out and they get grounded for the remainder of the year.

The 2 boys around 3 and 5 were crying and calling out "mom, mommy". I went in and told them that mom wasn't here right now and I even put on a puppet show with stuffed animals that got them laughing. I actually got them back to bed but that whole scene disturbed the shit out of me. Iv'e seen a couple dead bodies, one on a bus and one in the street but nothing shook me up like those poor kids crying for a mom who was in the next room with a dick in her mouth and pussy.

my homies brother was in thailand with a couple of his boys partying and seeing the sights, one night they decided to check out this club and in the club they got this bar with a curtain running along the front of it, so basically you sit at the bar and slide your legs under the curtain and you get a blowjob, there is all these signs that say do not look under the curtain blah blah, anyways my homies bro decides to lift up the curtain and have a look and what he found was a little boy probably about 7 or 8 sucking him off, he was fucking horrified, after that he didn't really leave the hotel for the remaining to weeks. that place got a lot of evil over there

if we can add close calls in the mix-

got on the subway at Queens Boulevard and 40th, then a guy was pushed onto the tracks at that station the very next subway that rolled in.  it was the incident where the photograph of the doomed guy on the tracks was taken, pretty fucked if you guys haven't seen it:
(http://cdn.hiphopwired.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/NYP9186022520.jpg-525x400.jpg)

another close one- as a grommet I was babysat by a family friend who ended up confessing that he murdered his girlfriend in the mid 80's, but a cop was wrongfully convicted of it and served several years until the truth came to light.  

was with my family in the car when we rolled up on a fresh accident on the highway.  mom is a nurse so she got out to help, but there was no helping the guy whose forehead was no longer on his skull.  was too young to really remember/be traumatized by it, thankfully.  

was on the way to a nice dinner for my girlfriends birthday a few years ago when we came across a man standing on the rail of a 250 foot bridge being talked down by the police.  not sure how it ended but our dinner was pretty somber, despite my attempt at jokes.  was saying things like "if that guy would only taste this chicken, he'd realize life is worth living".  didn't go over well.

Saw some dude try to focus another dudes head.  Victim was on the ground after getting the shit kicked out of him by a group of fools and one of the homies leaped in the air and landed on dudes head with both feet.  Dude was lucky that it was on my front lawn and not concrete.
   I had just watered the shit out of my front lawn so the soil had a little "give" to it.....Basically, I'm a hero and I saved dudes life.


Moral:   Always water your lawn.

Didnt see it firsthand but some friends had a house warming party 2 days after they moved into this ground floor apartment in Williamsburg, some dude on the top floor jumped off his balcony 5 floors up and landed in their backyard while they were moving in. At the housewarming party there was still a big blood stain on the concrete and some splatter stains on the fences near where he landed.

       I grew up in Parkslope Brooklyn, its pretty gentrified and yuppie-fied now but when I was a kid it was a regular middle class neighborhood, there was a crack/trap house across the street from our house, there would always be junkies lurking with the family that lived there and the sons of the family were always dealing out front.
       I was 6 years old and it was the beginning of the blizzard of 1996 and my dad couldn't find a spot to park but he saw a dug out a spot on our street so he parked the car there before the snow got really heavy. We woke up in the middle of the night to the dude from the crack house trying to kick in our front door and yelling that he was gonna kill my dad because "we had taken his spot". He cracked the front door to my house but dipped out because my pops had called the cops. The next day we saw that he had slashed the tires on our car and kicked in most of the fenders.
       The gnarly part was the cops that came told us there was nothing they could do about it until after he actually assaulted one of us and to call the police if he tried to get in again so my dad borrowed a gun from his friend and slept in our living room for the next few nights in case the dude tried to break in again.

Nothing quite as gnarly as some of the shit posted here, my life is way less interesting apparently haha.

I'm only 16 and this shit isn't anywhere near as bad as some of the things I've been reading, but still pretty scary for me.
When I was six, I was walking down this alley across from my house that lead to my neighbors. it was like a 50 foot walk. Another alley crosses through this one, some lady and what I suspect is her husband/boyfriend pulled up in a minivan and tried to convince me to get in by telling me they lost their dog and needed help. I didn't think much of it at the time but now it fucking terrifies me that I might have been raped and killed.

When I was 10 or so, I was at a pool. Some kid had a seizure and pretty much almost drowned, the life guards didn't do shit. the kids dad had to get him out. It was fucked up

 the worst thing I've ever seen, is when I was 14. I was skating down this semi-major street in my town, it has train tracks that run down it. I rolled up to a stop sign and saw some dude sitting in the tracks right as a train was coming. Basically saw the dude get smashed, blood and guts all over the place. Fucking terrifying.

Yeah dude, that is really fucked up, but it a different way than the gruesome stories in here.

Not too bad, but I sat next to my grandfather an held his hand as he die from cancer.  And it wasn't a painless death either-he was seizing up, convulsing, gasping for air, inarticulate--the whole nine.  That sucked.  Also watched my other grandfather slowly starve and waste away as he was dying from stomach cancer.  That's more fucked up in retrospect because you can process the progression of the disease and his starvation as a whole.

Maybe I'm blocking out some more messed up stuff because that can't be everything.

One time I heard a loud noise and yelling outside my house (not unusual because I live in the middle of downtown next to a busy street) so I go to check it out. So I walk out the front door and there is a guy in his late 20's riding an old beat up cruiser bike in the middle of the road and hes stopped at a red light and there is a guy in a car behind him yelling at him and honking his horn and the dude on the bike is just ignoring him, but as soon as the light turns green the guy in the car bumps the dude on the bike and he falls, and when he gets up hes super pissed and yelling and as the car drives by he kicks it, then the dude in the car stops, gets out, pulls a gun and starts yelling and the other guy froze, and after a minute of yelling the guy points the gun at the guy on the bike and asks him why he hit his car and the bike guy is still frozen just not moving and the other guy fires a shot off into the air and then the guy on the bike just turns around and runs and the other guy starts to chase him but gives up quick. On the way back to his car the guy pulls a knife, slashes the bike tires and then just gets in the car and drives away like nothing ever happened.

Pretty good friend of mine got shot a year or two ago, and I saw him in the hospital a few days after it happened with his intestines literally hanging out of his bullet wound. Another one of my good friends got stabbed in the heart on New Year's, and I saw him crying in the hospital room because it was that painful for him to breathe. These are both pretty tame, and I didn't actually see anyone get shot/stabbed, but they've still stuck with me just because it was so close to home.

I was looking at this dude and just watched him pass out, he had a heat stroke, and his head just smacked the concrete ground.  It was a solid thud, like someone dropped a brick, except i watched his head bounce back just to slam on the concrete again.  I didn't believe it really happened but my friends saw that shit too, dude died later that afternoon

A little back story first.  I went to college about 80 miles up the Hudson River in NY, in a town called Poughkeepsie.  And while my school was very nice, the surrounding area was just sketchy.

So one day, my house mate and I had to go into town to pay our cable bill, and on our way back from paying, we were talking about how we seemingly lived in a boring part of town (about 5 minutes from the campus).  Well, as we get closer to our house we talked about how cool it would be to witness something crazy go down, even if it was just a bum fight.  As we pulled up to the stop light by our house we saw 4 cop cars and an ambulance in the parking lot, all of which had their lights on, there was a black honda civic with the driver door open, and this guy laying on his back with his feet still inside the car and what looked like tubes, coming out of his mouth.  What appeared to be his girlfriend, was standing on the passenger side of the car and she looked like she was in hysterics.  We both exclaimed "Oh Shit!! Finally something crazy is going down!"  We ran into our house and to the upstairs which had a balcony to watch the spectacle.  About 5 minutes passed, then we notice the guys getting out of the ambulance with a stretcher, they put the guy on the stretcher and put a sheet on him, almost immediately, all of the cops, and the ambulance turned off their lights, they loaded the guy in the back and drove off.  After realizing we just witnessed some guy die across the street from our house, needless to say me and my buddy were super bummed.  That was definitely not the type of "excitement" we were looking for.  RIP dude.

Im an industrial first aid attendant so I've seen my fair share of lacerations and compound fractures but at work it seems like part of the job. But when I was 13 my friend and I were driving with his dad and were stopped at a light in the centre lane of a three lane road about 4 or 5 cars back from the light. After the intersection parking was allowed in the curb lane. After we start rolling a yellow crx zoomed past us on the right. A couple of seconds later we hear tire squeal and a crunch. We all start laughing because we assume there was a fender bender. The traffic comes to a stop and we start slowly merging over past the accident when we see what happened. the crx must have tried to pass all the cars in our lane before the parked cars but didn't make it a rear ended a city maintenance pickup with an extended tailgate to unload mowers or something and his front end went under the trucks bumper putting the metal plate right through the windshield. I didn't get more than a couple second look but it was at least partway through his chest and he was face down on the plate and a arm out the open window. Read that it was a fatal accident in the paper the next day.

my homies brother was in thailand with a couple of his boys partying and seeing the sights, one night they decided to check out this club and in the club they got this bar with a curtain running along the front of it, so basically you sit at the bar and slide your legs under the curtain and you get a blowjob, there is all these signs that say do not look under the curtain blah blah, anyways my homies bro decides to lift up the curtain and have a look and what he found was a little boy probably about 7 or 8 sucking him off, he was fucking horrified, after that he didn't really leave the hotel for the remaining to weeks. that place got a lot of evil over there

I'm not saying this didn't happen because, y'know, the world can be pretty messed up sometimes, but I've heard a few variations of this recently. Sometimes it's really far fetched midget-prostitute-with-a-towel-over-his-head-revealed-as-a-child kinda stuff and other times it's more plausible kid-was-behind-the-gloryhole stories. Always seems to happen to a friend of a friend. Can't find anything on Snopes, though, so if they're true, Thailand's fucking sketchy.

I guess the other possibility is that these people know exactly what they're paying for. Can't imagine there's much repeat business in the 'surprise, you're a paedophile!' game.

While at night bored as hell on the internet I saw a photo of an investigation scene with a woman in a bathtub, body decayed to the point where her legs were just bones floating in the tub with maggots all over her face, in her eye sockets and mouth. Woman has been decaying for weeks because apparently she was a lonely person and committed suicide in the tub. Since she had no friends or family it took a while to find her body. It's very fucked up and idk if I can find the link to it again.

The fences leading off campus at my ghetto ass school are barbed. My friend wanted to jump the fence to skip class with me once and they tore up his hands.

Totally forgot about this one. Driving back from a wallball game with some friends in highschool, my buddy was a few cars ahead of me and hit a very pregnant deer. The hit made its stomach/womb explode and the very developed fetus spewed out onto the road. The worst part is that the mother and fetus were somehow alive and the fetus let out the saddest noise I've ever heard. We hung around bumming out until a cop showed up and when he saw the scene all he could say was "fuck, now I have to use 2 bullets".

in a traffic jam, on the highway by my house, the south bound lanes were all slow, everyone was looking at something on the northbound lanes as they passed, when we finally  passed, we witnessed a guy, who had I am assuming had his car break down, and pulled over to the center lane, must have gotten out, his car had been hit by another car, and he was pinned, or crushed waste..stomach down between the jersey barrier and the front end of his car, keeled over the barrier...it was fucked, the dude as obviously dead, or near dead, never read a thing about it in the news.

When I was about 6 or 7 years old I saw a dude fall down an escalator shaft at a mall. He fell like 40-50 feet flat on his back, made a really loud sound. My friend's dad thought it was a gunshot and I remember him flinging my friend and I into an adjacent Best Buy. Once we realized it wasn't a gunshot, I walked over to check it out.There were a lot of people standing around, and I was tiny so I couldn't get a good point of view, but I remember seeing a pool of blood at the bottom of the escalator, and an older woman running down the escalator crying. A big black lady saw me approaching the scene, and screamed "get the children out of here" then hoisted me up onto her shoulders and ran me out of the mall. from what I can remember she was nice, she bought me some juice as we waited for my friend's dad to find us.

When I was 18 I lived in Seattle. I remember being on a bus going to the skatepark. Some dude had jumped off of the courthouse and killed himself, there were ambulances and cops or whatever. The fucking bus driver came over the bus' PA and said "uhhh to your left, it looks like we had a jumper". I wasn't too shocked by the visual of the body bag/cops, but the way that dude spoke about it was so apathetic and emotionless that it really threw me off.

Firsthand, everything from homeless people compound fracturing parts of their faces in the dead of winter & the desperation of suicidal individuals walking into oncoming traffic with their eyes closed , to gruesome injuries, near fatal car fires & the occasional overdose/psychotic break.

We live in a rough & rugged world, sometimes not for the faint at heart...

My drivers ed teacher was a very built woman who was nice, but very set in her ways.  She was probably 6 feet tall, and had big shoulders, but not really fat at all.  She was probably between the ages of 50-60.  She told us about how she broke her back once and it made her stronger in the end.  She had a good heart, but she could be a real bitch. I could tell she had some bad luck and tried to prepare herself for the worst.  For one she always carried a camera so she wouldn't be screwed over in a car accident.  I can only guess it had happened to her before, again just bad luck.  In fact I think that is why a lot of people become driver's ed teachers.  They have had bad luck and want to make a difference.  Either that or they are ex cops and want an easy job.  My actual instructor (person who actually rode in car with students) looked like half his face was bitten off by a dog because he was in a terrible car accident.  I guess teaching gave his life purpose.  He looked a lot like Mason Verger, poor guy.

Okay back to the story.  During our classroom break some of the kids would go across the street to a rite aid, but I would go climb up on the roof of this adjacent building and watch traffic.  It was a somewhat easy climb.  Anyways, she saw me up there and started screaming and didn't think I could get down.  I was like chill out and climbed down as I always did.  She was really nice about it, but she was like you don't know what your doing blah blah blah and I was just like sorry won't happen again.

Anyways, our classroom was in the basement of this old house and there was one flight of stairs.  There was only a thin wall between our classroom and the entire stair case.  So we are all sitting there and she starts coming down the stairs.  Next thing we know she tripped and we hear her falling and snapping bones and whimpering as she comes crashing down the stairs.  I literally just covered my ears and looked down, because it was all I could do.  I then stand up and look and she is sprawled out on her back in a large puddle of blood.  She slammed the back of her head right on the concrete after the last step.  One student took charge, the rest of us went outside, and she was taken away in the ambulance.

It was strange though, because they just replaced her and never really said anything about her condition.  When the course was over, and I was in the office are getting my certificate I asked about her.  The woman was like, oh no she's not in good condition, her brain is still bleeding, and this was weeks after it happened.  I'll never forget the sound of her helpless cry as she tumbled down those stairs.

^ holy shit that's insane.

I had to separate two homeless men who were trying to stab each other with pieces of a broken plate.
