The stars of this mesh-up defied death and survived, not without a serious adrenaline rush. Their quick-thinking, good reflexes and luck helped them tell the tale on YouTube.

It seems like they had an appointment with the Grim Reaper but, some without even acknowledging the danger they were in, managed to escape at the last moment.

One photographer was standing a bit too close at a Formula One Race and was nearly hit but, somehow, he found the composure to take a picture after the incident.

A policeman was standing in the middle of a lane during a rally when he was almost run over. He fortunately made it and hopefully learned to look both ways before crossing the street. Skydivers were lucky when the plane that circled around them somehow missed them by an inch.

Not as lucky as the squirrel that was faster than a Lamborghini, however. This furry beast crossed the street during what seems like a demonstration, and made it to the other side in one piece.
