Has the flood had any?
What sparked this curiosity was about a week ago I was up in Maules Creek (NSW), out hunting with one of my friends. We were in a back burned clearing (something we had done in June during the winter, way too dangerous now) looking for rabbits. We got chased by 4 wild dogs and the only way we managed to get away was by shooting the b*tch and using that time to get to our car. There would have been no way we could have outrun wild dogs from 50 meters away and another younger dog wasn't far behind when we reached our car again.
Has anyone on the flood had a close encounter that could have been harmful or even fatal?

I was walking around town and I slipped. Would've died if there wasn't some band-aids nearby.

Doctor told me I had cancer, then they said nope not cancer just Diabetes. Turns out I have neither. Needless to say I no longer visit that doctor.

Well I have had four concusions. The last one about 3 years ago I was riding a 450 4 stroke cased a table top on the dirt bike got thrown 20 feet head first into the ground then the bike landed on top of me. Said I woulda been dead if I didn't wear a helmet. I was unresponsive for hours got a ct scan managed to get out the next day no broken bones. With Obvious permanent brain damage. Being my 4th conclusion they say after each one youre never the exact same again. [Edited on 01.08.2013 3:06 AM PST]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] boomdeyadah I don't know if it necessarily counts as "close" but about 9 or 10 years ago, I was out camping and hiking on this trail, and me and my family were being stalked by a Grizzly bear that was above the trail on a slope, I'd say no more than about 10 meters were between us and the grizzly. Like we could hear it snapping branches and growling quite cleary. That was some scary -blam!- since I was only about 7 years old.[/quote] I think that would have been pretty scary regardless of age, but I don't know if Grizzly bears are so aggressive to the point where they attack on sight.

I've had many close calls while driving... I'm sure most have, but people seriously suck at driving in my area and I've almost been hit head on a couple times, almost t-boned, side-swiped, etc... The closest call was when I was riding shotgun with my friend and we were approaching an intersection where the light was red on our side... But his brakes failed and we slid into the intersection with traffic, almost having an accident. He had the brakes checked and found the wiring or such was faulty and it was replaced.

A Moose got pissed at me once and charged and almost kicked me down.

I ate a meal that wasn't fully cooked once.

After some of the things I have had happen to me close encounters are welcome.
