Inbocca Just Won't Die

[Inbocca]

Yesterday I was riding home from work and I came up to a red light. As part of a confidence-building exercise I ride my bike very aggressively. I run red lights, cross the road whenever I want, and make cars stop for me on a regular basis. So far it's been going well, until last night. I ran a red light when a car was coming and thought I could make it. I didn't. Dude hit me and I went flying. No helmet. I thought I was dead. Miraculously I survived with a broken femur and a fractured foot. It'll be a long couple months of recovery but I survived a run-in that would have killed a lesser man. And despite the pain, I feel great.

A lot of people are attributing it to luck or God, but I know the real reason I left in an ambulance and not a body bag. I knew what to do. I kept my calm, I knew how to break my fall when I hit the ground, I assessed my state as soon as it was over, and I had the will to survive. Never lost consciousness, never went into shock, didn't break into tears feeling sorry for myself. I made jokes the whole time, got to know the paramedics, flirted with the nurses. And when PT started today, I pushed myself and one of the nurses made a comment about how most 20 year olds are total wimps about PT. The way I handled this situation reinforced that despite my countless weaknesses and shortcomings, I am a resilient man. Quite possibly an immortal one at that.

So now I've got a choice. 10 weeks is a good excuse to binge on Netflix, but I'm not gonna fall out of my practice again. Time to constantly immerse myself in theory and practice on the street when I can. I feel like girls would be more sympathetic towards a cripple. I've already got a great story about how I roundhouse kicked a mountain lion in the face and broke my leg that way (thanks to Bboy for the inspiration).

Attitude is everything guys. Life is too hard to let victim mentality own you. Cheers, and good luck in your own endeavors.

Yeah, you'll definitely get new reference points. We'll be waiting for them field reports!

Step-father used to race in crotch rockets with his buddies and he has seen some nasty things. When it's your time, it's time to go. Not many would look at it from a positive light.
Here is an article about becoming antifragile (i.e., getting stronger from mistakes and chaos), your story reminded me of it: http://www.artofmanliness.com/2013/12/0 ... tifragile/

*Dude runs red lights on purpose
*Dude thinks he's immortal
*Dude thinks he's a better man coz he survives an accident
*Dude thinks he's the best thing that has ever happened to women since Casanova.
You should go do a test on personality disorders and I'm sure you'll score high on almost all of them... That could be a good thing or a bad thing, depends on how you look at it. Seriously though, you're awesome! Just don't kill yourself (or do anything extreme) trying to prove it. And hey... Get well soon!

Good read, thanks man! I'd like to try applying that to other areas of life. Crotch rockets are dangerous af, I bet your stepfather has some insane stories.

I have, and I do Definitely learned a lesson from this, but I expected being an asshole would lead to some painful situations. Thanks for the well-wishes.

Inbocca,

I hope you get well soon, but fuck me that is some stupid shit man. I'm not judging/trying to reprimand you or anything of the sort but running red lights, making cars stop for you, that is some reckless shit man.

Did you even think about the driver? he could have potentially killed someone, he'd have to live with that for the rest of his life, that he's a killer whether he meant it or not( which he obviously didn't). His car could have gotten damaged too( I hope he has insurance).

I'm sorry but I can't endorse or applaud someone being so reckless and endangering the lives of not only themselves but also other drivers on the road.

Other than that, I do hope you recover well and learn whatever lessons this has to teach you.

There's something kind of invigorating about seizing control when you're clearly in the weaker position. Like the lady who scared off a gator with her sandal or a cat who sent three big dogs running. But I'm not gonna try to defend this outlet for that behavior. Recklessness on the road is incredibly stupid and I won't be doing it again. I kid about immortality but I know I'm very fortunate to be alive.

This guy didn't seem too worried, he only stopped long enough to assess the damage to his vehicle. They're still looking for him.

Appreciate the concern though. Recovery is going great, already doing a lot by myself. Should be back at work next week.
