One shot Paddy 1,206 Posted July 2, 2020 In the carpark next to my work yesterday a guy was run over and killed by his own car. It's a bit of an odd background, 4 weeks ago his daughter (10) was knocked down by a van in a hit and run when walking their dog with her mum and sister. The air ambulance (a new thing in NI) was used to treat her for broken pelvis. Her and her mum live nextdoor to my parents and yesterday the dad came to take them to hospital in Belfast for a check up. On the way home he dropped the mum off at the chemist and took the young girl to the toilets in the carpark, he got out to see if they were open, took the keys out and the car locked its self with the girl inside. The electronic handbreak gave way and the car started to roll towards a small hedge and a 7 foot drop into the yard at the back of my work about 30 feet away. He tried to stop it but it went part way over the drop with him underneath and the girl locked inside! The air ambulance came again, 1/2 mile from the girl's accident on the same road. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,070 Posted July 6, 2020 Amusement parks should have a thread, but that’s fine. A woman died Sunday after falling from a roller coaster in a theme park in Oise, in northern France. The accident occurred on Saturday around 1:45 pm at Parc Saint-Paul, the park said in a news release. Authorities in Oise confirmed the incident to CNN. The woman, 32, fell while riding the Formula 1 Coaster. Emergency services were called immediately but were unable to resuscitate the victim, who died on the scene.

BBC story 54 year old bloke, probably overweight, has a heart attack in a FAST FOOD RESTAURANT and they blame the liquorice. I would check the qualifications of the doctors or if they have ties to another sweet manufacturer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whitehouse 872 Posted November 2, 2020 I don't know if there's a topic called "Cheating death" but a subway driver in Spijkenisse near Rotterdam must be the luckiest man on earth. He shot though the barriers and ended up on an art piece of two whale tales. And I'm not making this up but that art piece is named; "Saved by the whale's tail.
