I was out on a trip with the boy scouts and we were panning for gold. Somebody told us that a log down the stream was a good place because it would trap the gold when the water washed up on it. I was there with two other boys and when leaning down to scoop up some mud I fell in. I got trapped under the log and could barely breath. One boy held on to me wile another ran for help... Luckily the adults cam quick because I was starting to slip and I couldn't breath. If I had let go the EXTREMELY fast current would have killed me and my corpse would end up somewhere in Boise...

Re: I almost died!
Glad you're okay. That had to be scary. Get the guy who held you up and the one who went for help something nice for a thank you. And start working on coming up with some cool details for when you retell the story. Something that makes you sound more badass. Maybe throw in something about jumping a surfboard over a shark.I want that Mulan McNugget sauce, Morty!

Re: I almost died!
Yikes! I'm glad you're OK. Let this be a lesson to you: respect and fear nature. Enjoy and appreciate it, but do it from the safest place you can. Always keep your guard up and your wits about you. And make sure you know exactly what you're gonna do should you lose your footing by some chance.
I actually had a bit of a scare this past week in Belize; there was this big (12 feet or so) rock which you could easily climb and then swing off of on a rope, Tarzan-style, where you'd then jump off of it into the water below. On one swing I started to lose my grip, and stayed on just long enough to make it to the water. Two seconds sooner and it would have been a severe injury.

On the next exciting episode of "Pavilion Adventures"... Lord Cohliani plots a daring escape from a raging current while Pavilion Webmaster Valkysas changes his avatar. Gloom changes his name, and we all go nuts with new members that barely show up.
Please stay tuned....

Seriously, cool to know we have the ability to escape death. Take THAT, God!

Re: I almost died!
In all seriousness like and not insulting and not to be a jackass...
But did you cry? Like if you did I cant blame you... Even adults would cry if that happened to them.
Also this might sound stupid, but what did it feel like. Did you start to hallucinate, or pass out? Did you see a white light. Did you see Jesus?
I mean this all seriously. Because I think it's rather interesting.

I couldn't breath towards the end but other than that, no... And I didn't cry...
