What is the closest you have been to death?

My most recent near death experience (last night) has caused me to think about all the times I pretty much should have died but didn't.

I guess the absolute closest would be the time I was hospitalized at 5 years old with a trifecta of pneumonia, blood anemia, and throbbing chest pain. I had no idea I was that sick I just wanted to get out of the hospital so I could go to Disney world.

In the cool/illegal/stupidty category would be the time I ran across a train track when the train was pulling in.
