I wish I could add my strange experience to the ones above. – BuzzFeed - Quiz, Trivia & News Review

If there’s any chance, here goes: As a brand new senior in high school, many years ago now, school for me and half of all other seniors that year while an additional school to hold the huge numbers of baby boomer students, it was nearing time to be in our first class for the day. My parents, bless them, had bought me a 1965 Mustang in perfect order for getting to and from my classes that ended at noon so the second cohort could begin their school day. At that moment, I was stuck behind another car waiting endlessly to make a left turn onto a side road just before the road that was also the entrance to our high school. Glancing in my rear view mirror, I saw a number of boys (students) barreling down the rear end of my beloved Mustang seemingly without any slowing down, in their rush to beat the school bell. I honked at them as an alert warning that me and another driver were very near ahead. Before they responded, their car barreled almost full force into mine, but while their car and the rear end of mine were about squashed to pieces, I didn’t have any time to check myself out before then plowing into the poor lady in front of me, again with full force. Somehow, despite likely sustaining either a whiplash broken neck, or going head first through my windshield, I managed to survive with just a broken front tooth that, given the hard steering wheels of the time,along with no headrests to guard against brake-neck whiplashes, or even car seatbelts, i excited my car all on my own. The kind lady whose car I’d back ended due to the impact from behind me. Her house was just inside that side road. Bless her for inviting me in to catch all my bearings and call my mom who I knew still hadn’t left for work. As we waited, she gave me a cup of coffee I could only manage drinking through a straw. Soon, both my mom and the police arrived to obtain statements. I did the best I could giving my statement to the police, who had taken me back to back the seen as best I could walk on shakes knees, to get my version & be sure I didn’t need an ambulance. At that point a guy I considered a wonderful and carring soul pulled to our side of the road, and even though he’d be late to class he asked if he could do anything. Through broken teeth, I asked him to please explain my my not being a school. Then it was a quick trip of x-rays and then tooth repair, after which I went home and slept for 3 days. Thereafter, aside from additional tooth work and finding a replacement car (it would take a few months to get me back into the Mustangs I so loved, and the replacement, when I got it, turned out to be a Mustang Fastback 2 + 2. Wow. Was that worth the wait! I guess all is well that ends well after all!
