Strange and Spectacular Accidents from a Dangerous World
A Durban amateur photographer freed a shark’s jaws with a stick then lost his grip as the jaws snapped. A dead snake killed a cat, a Russian boy suffered a weird trauma, and a boy in Chicago survived a bullet that bounced into a gun muzzle. Many bizarre escapes follow, including a tram reflection incident, a baby saved from an elevated rail, and a magician stabbed during a dangerous trick. A diving wedding ends with leaks and near suffocation, while a boy’s tongue sears to a railway, and a cigarette end triggers a fire that maims and kills.
