    Text - Obsessedgoose 12h Had my Chevy 1500 fall on me. The jack slid out and the Jack stand folded under the weight. The rotor pinned my thigh to the ground. My step brother who is like 5'6" mind you, grabbed the bumper and lifted the truck up enough that I was able to slide out. Didnt break anything, but tore a lot of muscle on my thigh. thank him everytime l see him, because it messed up his back. He's not a big guy, what he did was a feat if strength that I do not think I could do and I'ma lo

    Text - Goldstartankexpert 12h My dad was trying to get into knife throwing. One of my younger brothers grabbed a throwing knife and throws it at another younger sibling. My Dad reaches out and grabs the knife, point first, before it does any damage. He was barely cut due to the thick callouses from his job. I was only 12 at the time and I was really impressed about how good his reflexes were.

    Text - amer215 10h My dad was really smart with math, every time I asked about an equation or formulas he would always know in a second what to do. He helped me to understand math and how to use it, later on l asked him why didn't he become a math proffessor, It was because he had PTSD and and didn't want to effect the school children with his traumatic backslashes and see him sad. Sadly he passed away in 2018 of a heart attack at the age of 50.

    Text - Xanphal 8h In New Zealand, after the Christchurch Earthquake a few years ago, there was random footage of people helping at collapsed buildings etc. In the background of one shot, clearly not really noticed by anyone at the time, was a dude picking up massive chunks of concrete walls/ building and was just tossing it out of the way like it was made of paper. The country as a whole nicknamed him 'Increadi-bro hulk'. His response, once media figured out who he was, was that the weight of wh

    Text - sweaty_octopus 9h I got my finger trapped in my bike chain when was reattaching it to the cog. My finger wasn't able to just pull out or even move the chain. My dad came out and snapped the chain in half as if it was nothing.

    Text - kaiyotic 10h when I was in college all students in our city used to go party in the same street that's filled with bars. In that street there's also a fries shop where the owner would take like 10-15 peoples orders at the same time without writing them down and he'd never mess up an order. He was a living legend and I've never met a person who studied in this city that didn't eat at that place. Like it would be 4 A.M. and there would be lines of drunk students out the door and not once ha

    Text - GoOfyTOoth 8h I had a friend who did amateur mma while we were in high school, he had all kinds of insane stories and I witnessed several of them. Apparently just after a fight he had gotten paid, and was walking to his car. Guy tried to mug him at knifepoint, and friend initially tried to avoid a confrontation. Dude won't leave without his wallet, so he beats the dude up, and kept the knife "because it was a nice knife" He apparently used to get punched/kicked in the balls fairly often d

    Text - mariawest 11h I was working in a clinic and a mum bought in a floppy blue new born baby. The doctor on duty was a man who stands 6ft 6" we put the baby on a trolley and the doctor undressed the baby and lay his hand on the babies body. The doctors hand pretty much covered babies whole body. The doctor then directed me and 2 other nurses as to what he wanted us to do. He was so calm and so so clear and he saved that babies life. The baby had pneumonia and hypothermia. Baby spent 2 weeks in

    Text - Bb_96.8h Thaven't personally seen it but back when I was in 1st or 2nd grade I had a classmate from Sri Lanka who went there on a family vacation. He was supposed to be there for about two weeks think. In the middle of his vacation the big tsunami hit the area he was in. I still remember sitting in the classroom and listening to our teacher telling us that they didn't know if he was okay because they hadn't heard anything yet. He came back a week later than he was supposed to and he was o

    Text - piscimancy 12h Ihad a professor who learned the names of every single student in all of his classes (some of which had 300+ in a lecture) and a little bit about each of them. He could go up to anyone who had been in his class in the past few years and have a relevant conversation about their interests and what was going on in their lives. To be fair, he had a great system in place to allow him to do this. He took photos of each student with their names and memorized them on flashcards. An

    Text - Havoc2_0 9h When I was a 6th grader I rode the bus home. Halfway through the route the bus would pick up kids from another school. These kids would often encourage the bus driver to speed over dips and bumps as it would launch the kids a few inches in the air. She never did it until one time when she took a bump at 45 mph. Kids hit the luggage racks, flew across seats, and the emergency door at the back flew open and this 10 year old kid fell out of the bus. Now the bus was slowing down a

    Text - AdvocateSaint 6h May be trivial, but I find it cool that my girlfriend can taste pretty much any food once and identify most of the ingredients, or at least trace amounts of one particular ingredient Her: "This cake has nutmeg" "This fried chicken has ginger." "This brownie has coconut oil" "This crappy lemonade slush has (sip) basil!? Wtf?" "This caviar spread has egg, mayonnaise, cream cheese, and... (chews a bit more) some onion." Me eating a brown cake: "This is... chocolate!"

    Text - HeliumAlloy 10h I worked at McDonald's for a summer with this tiny old Aisan guy named Panya. He had three jobs and spoke very little English. Every now and then, Panya would spend $100 to pay for 100 ice cream cones, then say "Ice cream free today!" and let kids get ice cream without paying for it. He also exemplified the "old Asian kung fu master" stereotype and did backflips in the store lobby, which was pretty cool.

    Text - pearlmoon222 9h One time I was walking on a super busy street when this girl tripped and almost landed straight into the traffic except this dude who was also walking close by grabbed her before she bit the dust and pulled her up. It happened really fast and looked cool.

    Text - spunkity 12h in high school, my marching band director could control the weather. we lived in the rainy south near the coast, where summer storms were common. It never rained during practice. All four years of high school. The one time it did, the director threw his little clipboard on the ground and just stared up at the sky and it just...stopped. He was a strange man.

    Text - draccus 8h When I was learning to play ice hockey as a child we had the usual kid who thought he was shithot but not nearly as skilled as he thought. Fast as hell but no accuracy whatsoever (still better than ever was though). We practiced at the local rink so it didn't have plexi above the walls and one day this kid has a moment where he decides to try a slapshot. Puck completely goes off course and headed toward the stands and one of the coaches just skates by and plucks it out of the a
