Near Miss

I have been watching airplane crashes and I got more interested in near misses in the aviation industry.. It is horrific what passengers experience in such situations. We all have near misses and mine was with a tear gas canister. It was directed at some street vendors and as I turned on the other side, I was one coming direct to my face. I had to lay low and cover my head. I can't imagine what would have happened if I did not do that.

@mildredtabitha That would be the worst experience. You know if that canister hits you in the head you can die or have mental issues?
