My girlfriend at the time passed out at an Opeth concert. I dragged out out and kind of had a conniption thinking she was suffering from a brain aneurysm or something and was screaming at people t get the f*ck out of my way. Everybody at the back bar thought she was drunk. I ended that when I jumped the bar to call an ambulance when the bartender told me to just give her water. I don't f*ck around. Turns out she hadn't eaten for two days because she was stressed out from a fight we had. Women.

I also discovered a man in the woods behind my house who had been in an ATV accident. He was pinned up against a tree and his leg looked like mangled shredded beef. I took my shirt off and told him to wrap it around "the bloody parts" and ran down the hill to call 911. They saved the leg.

Even just recently my pup had an allergic reaction to onions and my parents thought she'd be fine until morning. I drove her a half hour to the nearest animal shelter and ended up saving her life.

I guess you could call me Batman.

I chose the latter, but it's not something I'd want to do everyday. Nothing fell thankfully. The noise and sight of 250+ cars all rocking back and forth in bizarre circular motions was unnerving to say the least

I remember one time as a child (don't quite recall the age, younger than ten), me and my sister were watching youtube videos where something jumps out and scares you. I really wasn't ready for one I guess, and when the scary thing popped out, I yelled and punched my sister in the face. Good times.

well, when you put it like that I should have known...:rofl: No I was curious whether or not the car pile up was due to the qauke, or if you were in a junkyard...In which an earthquake in a junkyard even less amazing then one not in one...
