A girl at my elementary school was killed by an automatic wall divider closing. It was horrible. The wall closed right on her neck and strangled her.

No, it was a man camping with friends. No bear suit involved. Attacked by a grizzly bear.


OK. In our case were able to recover the molded head from the suit she was wearing at the time. Not a bad thing to have.


NP. So…you’re trolling?


Np, wasn't it obvious from the first post?

Was this on the Long Island Expressway? I remember that accident. It was someone slightly famous, but I can't remember.


It was the director Alan Pakula who died that way on the LEI - a pipe came off a vehicle, bounced off the roadway and in through his front windshield impaling him.


Wasnt this scene in The Omen?

Also some freak accident in the UK where something from the road was dislodged and killed a famous DJ.


Keith's death scene in The Omen
Obviously trigger warning for peak 70s horror



Thread has jumped the shark.


Lol it’s the bad guy from Titanic

I can definitely see that happening easily with a young child or someone under the influence


I removed the strings on my young kids' hoodies for the same reason.

A college friend’s roommate died her car overturned coming back to school from Christmas break. The car overturned in a creek that had just a few inches of water but she couldn’t get out and drowned.

When my kids were young I was terrified of hot cat death. I insisted that daycare always always call if kid is late or doesn’t show up. I guess now cars have alarms and such.


This is a horrible and serious topic, but I couldn’t help but lol at this typo…


Might not have been a typo
