I was having a heart issue/medication complication which I would find out at the hospital later. I could feel my heart pounding out of my chest but I kept getting weaker and weaker. I fell to my knees and pulled out my phone to dial 911.I kept thinking “is this really happening? F*ck, this is really happening.”

No last thoughts. Last thing I remember is sitting on the couch watching Friday with my brother and laughing my ass off. Then I had a stroke, and woke up a week later in the ICU. Wouldn't have been a bad way to go out, actually.

A streetlight fell on the roof of my car after I skidded off an exit ramp and hit it head-on. I didn’t realize that they are intentionally constructed to be lightweight and hollow for instances such as this - I don’t run into lampposts much. My thought as I saw it slowly tilt forward until it came down on my car was literally “Well, I guess I’m going to die”. Then I just waited to for it happen. I didn’t have much time to process anything else. I was relieved when it merely dented my roof and unceremoniously rolled off my car and landed in the grass beside me.

I was on a commercial jet that caught fire during takeoff. The cabin filled with smoke, the pilot didn't say a word, and the plane suddenly pitched forward as if we were going to nosedive in. I was weirdly calm and just thought "Wow, I'm going to find out what it's like to die in an airplane crash."

"I have a calculus exam in four hours, I should be sleeping" while my body shut down from hypothermia.

“Oh this is gonna f*cking suck” as a car missed me by inches

"When did the train get so close!!!!"Almost got hit by a train.

Bleeding out after tonsillectomy scars came off. As I was lying in the ambulance on the way to the hospital, my thoughts were of my then-fiancee, saying her name three times and telling myself to hang on for her.

I had the most fleeting thought that it would be sad for my parents for me to die on Christmas.

Mine was that in the moment I thought I knew I was going to die, that ..nothing really mattered aside from my kids being taken care of. Debt, owed and owing, things I hadn't done, places I hadn't seen, none of that mattered. For that short time, it was an incredibly freeing experience, until I realized I was going to make it. Then it also slowly crept back in, the stress, the weight of it all. But I learned at that point, that really, very little in life actually matters, in a good way.

“Where is he.”For context, I was in the hospital and my husband was rushing to get there but he didn’t make it in time.I was rushed to surgery and he was there when I woke up thankfully

I thought I had more time……to tell people I loved and appreciated them. That is no longer going to be my last thought - proud to say.

“I think this water is too deep”. I was 7 or 8 and was walking in the bay and didn’t know how to swim. Walked to a spot where it was over my head and everything went black. I woke up to a lifeguard performing CPR.

I just felt really tired and was confused about why the doctor was yelling at me to look at him and breathe. He was just figuring out that they’d jabbed an artery during my hysterectomy while I was in the recovery unit post-op. Everything just felt cold and my vision was going dark, but that was because of the tremendous amount of blood I’d lost. I didn’t see any bright lights or god, but I also didn’t see any fire and brimstone either.

I told my wife "I love you" and then the doctor asked me if I took a whole or just a baby aspirin and I said "tell her I love her" and fell over dead. 12 minutes later they got my heart beating. 19 days later when I woke up, my wife was right there holding my hand.

It's gonna make me sound like a lunatic, but I just laughed to myself, paramedics said I was laughing when I came back from it.

I recently fell twenty-three feet onto rocks. I was climbing a lighthouse built in the 1700’s and was being a little more reckless than I should have when I decided to climb the staircase leading to the top. The stairs could support my weight, but the roof collapsed, dropping me down and collapsing on top of me. As the stairs detached from the ceiling, my “last” thought was “well this is a stupid f*cking way to die.”

40/30 is really low blood pressure

“He’s not going to stop. He’s going to kill me”Was “wrestling” with a guy. We were on LSD. He started to choke me, other people were laughing. I could not breathe in air to speak. And he kept going until I saw stars and blacked out. Never play fought with anyone ever again.

"I'm going to die and I'm not even going to take the deer with me."They tell you not to swerve when an animal jumps in front of your car and it's better to just hit it, but it's a really hard thing to follow.As a fun bonus, insurance covers you hitting an animal, as it's a moving object, but not the freeway divider you slammed into while avoiding the deer.

My last thought when I knew I would live was-"One day this will happen, and I won't be able to stop it."

If this doesn't kill me, it's gonna really hurt

I almost died on a cheese stick. It was F**** I can’t breathe I need to get the cheese out or I’m going to pass out and die. (I was alone )

"God, I hope he remembers to feed the dog."Was living with my ex at the time and the primary caretaker for his dog. I was also mildly suicidal so I was much more concerned whether the dog was gonna be okay.
