Have you ever witnessed someone die??

While I was eleven I saw a fire truck hit a car while trying to pass it when it was speeding towards an emergency. The driver apparently wasn't paying attention and didn't move out of the way. The car slammed into a telephone pole so hard the front of the car caved in. I don't know if he survived or not but since this was in 1992 and his car was probably an 80s model or earlier it's doubtful his car had the same safety features we take for granted today. Three years later I almost saw a great uncle die. I was downstairs when he was already sick. While I was down there I heard the ambulance coming. He ended up passing away in his sleep but I didn't witness it happen. Eight years later during the invasion of Iraq I was in a humvee a distance behind a platoon of M1 Abrams in Baghdad when they took out a group of Iraqi soldiers. We got closer afterwards and saw the aftermath of the explosion. One of them had their legs on one side of the road and their torso was on the other side. Other than that, I didn't witness people die in person but we had a situation where we had to recover a vehicle from another platoon who was hit by a suicide bomber. Everybody in the humvee was okay but some of the bomber's guts were spread all over the place. Two of the bomber's fingers were on the hood of the humvee.

Damn. Ive seen videos/pics of people dying in the middle east and it was pretty intense. I've always wondered how I would react if I saw it in front of me.

Seen some crazy stuff in Asia, specifically Bangkok. Witnessesed a car running over a guy on a moped, not sure if he lived or not but if he did then hes one tough SOB.

a family member his eyes looked into the air like he saw an angel of GOD and then they kinda rolled back then he passed away . Once i saw that i knew there was a GOD he saw something

I saw a freshly killed hooker once. It was on the beach and I was 12 or something.

Or almost die? I have. My cousin was sleeping over at my house and in the middle of the night, he woke up, got out of the bed, and then immediately fell down and started spazzing out. His body was shaking like crazy and his eyes were rolled over and he was choking and blood started coming out of his mouth.


It was the scariest thing I've ever witnessed in my entire life. I was freaking out. At one point, I thought it was just a bad dream. Because I just COULDN'T believe what was happening. But yea...it was a terrible night. Terrible. And I felt a bit guilty. And still do. For reasons I don't feel like saying :/


What about you guys? Have you ever witnessed someone dying or almost dying? I know this is kind of a weird/disturbing topic but I just felt like posting this for some reason.

ouch! :shock:

Nope. Never wittness or had someone close die. People I stay close with I usually have to leave them behind and forget them for the rest of life.

They all become replaced eventually.

I have, 3 times before. Once was my grandpa in the hospital in his sleep. The other was a car in front of me that got stuck on the tracks and a train hit them. The last time my dorm roommate in college who commited suicide in the dorm room.
