Harrowing Stories of People Ruining Their Life in One Day

Life can change in an instant. Sometimes, you see tragic things coming from miles away. If a loved one is slowly succumbing to an illness, it might not hurt so much when they die because at least you had time to prepare for the inevitable emotionally. But when a death or a tragedy comes out of nowhere, the surprise of the occurrence can be extremely traumatic.

You don't have to be a wreckless or clueless person to suffer in a horrible accident or have your life ruined instantly. These things could happen to any of us. I thank the Lord every day that I haven't been hit by a car yet because I'm terrified that that will happen to me in the future. Sometimes, it just takes one terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day to ruin your life. Redditors shared some of those stories, ranging from tragic to unbelievable.
