Has Anyone Witnessed A Brutal Death?

The only person I have ever seen die was a motorcyclist in Chicago. He & a friend were trying to beat the train. Friend 1 (who had a helmet on) swerved around those train sticks (what the heck are they called?) and made it past. Friend 2 (who didn't have a helmet) did the same but SMACK right into the train. He was thrown back and fell onto the ground while his head drained the blood out of it. He died almost instantly. \n\nI was about 9 yrs. old and traumatized for life!

I've had a near death experience at a young age or 2 yrs. Ever since I've seen my dead brother talking to me. When my mother died I saw her playing with my very quiet children. My son has ADHD so that was unnerving to me. When I called out my mothers name she turned faced me and smiled. I paniced and ran down stairs and tried to call home. No answer and I felt sick inside. A couple hours later my sister called and told me of my mothers passing. But, before she could tell me what was wrong I responded that mom's dead huh. It freaked her out and me too.\n   It's a cool and humbling experience at the same time.

Yes.  I have.  It was someone I knew, that I had grown up with.\n\nShe used to take the bus to this one shopping center, always in July, to get half price bathing suits.\n\nWhen I saw her, I was talking to her, and that is what she was doing.  I didn't think that much about it, but there was a rumor for a long while saying she had died.\n\nShe got off the bus.  The person with me said, Oh boy, who were you talking to?\n\nI found out later she had died by then.

twice in my 45 years of kicking around...however many more times I didn't see one but felt like there was one there...\n\nnow for a true story two weeks after my oldest son was murdered at 3 in the morning; the hour that he died every alarm clock in the house went off but when checked they were all stuck at midnight...was the only thing like that to ever happen before or since....

Yes.  My ex beat and tortured me for 4 long years.  He nearly killed me and I nearly lost our child when pregnant.  He cheated and mentally abused me so bad that I couldn't even hold my head up.  I finally escaped after nearly being killed.  In my agony I prayed for God for vengeance...not long after I got away from him, he suffered a nearly fatal accident.  He was 'huffing' the chemical freon when it caused him to pass out.  While passed out, the can rolled in front of his face and kept spraying.  After he was found, he died twice and was jumped with the paddles.  He was in a coma for 3 months and had 13 plastic surgeries for the 3rd degree burns on his face.  He lost an eye and suffered permanent scars.  Every surgery felt like a lit match on his skin.  Even though something so devastating would have been possible because of his lifestyle, I truly believe it was fate, God, karma, whatever that interviened because of how horrible he treated another human being who only was fool enough to love him.  I also try to live by the idea of what comes around goes around, it's a good believe that will keep you in check and helps to make you a better person.

I work in a nursing home, and needless to say when our patients die no heroic measures are taken, their quality of life is zero and reviving them would be prolonging their agony. One man died in the early hours of the morning, the nurse on duty couldn't feel a pulse or hear him breathing when she listened with a stethoscope. \nThe Dr. came out to certify him a couple of hours later, by this time the man looked waxy and blue, and was very obviously dead, but the Dr. could hear a faint heartbeat, although the man was definitely not breathing.\nHe still certified him though, and before he left he said to the nurse if he comes back to life please call me! We were all seriously freaked, but by the time the undertakers arrived the man hadn't made any miraculous recovery, and was still dead.     Or was he?         Absolute true story!

Yes,  Once I fell off a cliff... well I sort of jumped but I had no choice.  I cracked my head pretty hard at the bottom.\n\nI think I died and went to hell... it was a boiling pit of blood, people were screaming in it all around me.  Any who tried to surface or reach out would get slashed by flying serpents that skimmed the surface.  This of course could have been a hallucination... I felt I deserved to be there for what I had done in my life, so I sunk to the bottom, resigned to my fate.  There I saw a baby that took my hand and said, "wake up, I still need you!"\n\nWhen I awoke, I was in that gulch with blood all over my face, matted in my hair and my head damaged.  I couldn't walk... I had to drag myself out, one foot at a time and the pain was terrible as my shock wore off. \n \nI prayed to God for the strength to make it out alive and swore to do all he asked of me if I survived... somehow I made it back up to the road and was delivered to the hospital by some motorists.\n\nI believe it was a miracle!

Yes.  They appear like most normal people who are sick, and you know they are sick, and in the end, they just die.  Sometimes, violently, sometimes, easily.  \n\nSo far, those whom i have seen die, have died easilly.  I don't think i'd be able to handle a violent death yet, but then i don't know :)\n\nWhat was your question specifically?

I have a couple of times. Once because my friend fainted and we couldent get him to wake up, once because my friend almost got shot by this psycho and once when I was like five years old becuase I thought it was fake. Random but yeah.

The nicest thing anyone has done was an offer from a dear friend of mine to pick me up in Portland Oregon from Salt lake Utah and drive me to my daughters funeral in Los Angeles.  So i wouldn't be alone and would have someone to process the grief with.  I couldn;t take her kind offer because I knew it was something I had to do alone.   \n\nThe worst thing is the man that was responsible for her death (he didnt kill her I hope anyway but if I hadnt known him it wouldnt have happened which is far to complex to explain here)  made sure I was homeless broke my nose several times and tried to kill me, after taking all my cats .  I was in love with him and waited for twelve years for him to show up. He showed up five years after her funeral, I had already waited seven for him then. That was six years ago.

Unfortunately, yes.  I wished (and dreamed) that this person was dead, as they were making my life a misery.\n\nThey did not die that day, but a day later, after talking to me and making up with me.\n\nIt was possibly the worst experience of my life.

I was in the Air Force driving 1000 miles to go home for a month leave. While I was driving in the high mountains around Reno, I fell asleep. I was traveling about 85 mph. My truck veered off the highway. As soon as I felt the truck leave the highway, I woke up and found I was heading downward on the gravel part of the side of the highway. My truck seemed to be driving itself I was in shock. The steering wheel was moving under my hands. I can't describe it any better than this. As the truck moved back up to the highway, I pulled over and tried to calm down. It was a really frightening moment. What was even more frightening was just 1/4 mile more and the side of the highway no longer had gravel. There were large boulders. I still get chills thinking about it.\n\nTill the day I die, I know I was not the one driving my truck at that moment.\n\nbtw - I have had several other experiences where the circumstances involved other than human interaction. I guess I am just one of the few to have been fortunate enough to experience it.

I saw two people shoot each other and both of them died right there on the spot. Also seen several poeple killed in car wrecks. Death is a bizarre thing.

My father died because he was hit by a car (the driver was drunk) when I was five. I don't remember how I felt at the time it happened and I have no memories of my father which I find very sad. \nAn older sister of mine (I had 5 altogether) died 2 years ago due to complications after a simple operation. She left behind 3little children. \nIt's hard to describe how you feel when someone close to you dies. \nI think the worst for me was facing my sister's children. I know they can still have a happy childhood. I have very happy memories of my own childhood, so I believe they will be OK, but being with these little ones and seeing the pain and sorrow in their little faces, was almost unbearable at times. \nMy sister took a picture of her eldest girl before she died. In the picture my niece is holding a little rabbit and her whole face is brimming with happiness. There is not a trace of sorrow in her eyes. \nA year after my sister died, another picture was taken of my niece. It's hard to believe, that it's the same girl. She is smiling but the sadness in her eyes seems so deep, she looks so hurt and vulnerable, that it just makes me wanna cry every time I look at this picture. \nThe only thought that has been of any comfort to me, was knowing, that both my father and my sister, had a relationship with God.\nI believe they are with Him now and that one day, I will see them again.
