I come from Australia and there was infact a Doritoes commercial with this guy in it, he recorded it from his loungeroom or atleast a place in Croatia because he refused to fly over here for the ad.

I'd assume channel Ten, or atleast which ever Australian channel it was that had the ad on it, would do a little research to confirm his tall stories.

There is a big gap here between 1973-1995 with no incident. If he was going to lie he probably would have spaced it more evenly for showmanship sake.

LOL. I was all ready to believe his story until the part about him driving off the road and jumping out of his car into the safety of a tree. That one just stretched credibility. Haha

"if a plane door came off then being sucked out would definitly kill him.
the acceleration of the fall (9.81m/s^2 on the earth)no matter what he fell on (hay isnt that soft) would cause enough internal injuries to kill him instantly
well… i suppose if the plane was only flying at like 50ft then maybe not, but usually planes stick to around 35000ft."

This. Is. Retarded. For one, the actual acceleration of gravity is 9.8m/s². For two, there's such thing as wind resistance. For three, there have been cases of people surviving terminal velocity, so stop trying to look like the cool guy on the block. In fact, I've read multiple guides on how to survive a fall from ANY HEIGHT.

It's possible, get over it.

This looks like complete nonsense to me. The story reminds me of James Frey except Frane hasn't been on the Oprah Winfrey show yet.

Regarding Ace Leader's point about falling from an aircraft, above some point it doesn't really matter what the aircraft height was because the body reaches terminal velocity due to air resistance. More info at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_velocity. The question is, can anybody survive hitting a haystack at 120 mph. Sombody care to volunteer to find out?

What a amazing real story!
Even he had gotten many accident he luckily escaped.
From 1962 to 1996 he faced so much of trouble in his life however now he got one million from lottery.

Do you think he is a lucky Man? I can say NO...

Sounds like a good movie plot. However, i have to correct the person that said cars don't catch fire or explode. WRONG! My cousin had his ford bronco worked on and the shop didn't reconnect the fuel line all the way. As he was driving it home the fuel sprayed all over the engine and of course caught fire, which started coming into the cab through the floor and dash vents. He slammed it into park going about 30mph and jumped out. Granted it didn't actually explode, but it did burn to the ground.

This sounds to me like pure BS, however I have had a number of incidents in my life that makes one wonder.

5 times in my life I have been within 100 feet of a lightning hit and never been hurt. The fist was in 1985 on I-80 eastbound about 25 miles west of the Quad Cities in Iowa. I was in a truck in the left lane passing a small car. The car was still about 75 feet in front of me and a lightning bolt hit the ground in the center of the freeway right next to it sending flaming concrete into the air. It put a dent in the passenger door of the car about the size of a basketball. Was a sight I will never forget.

The 2nd was about 5 miles later when my trailer was hit. It punched a hole in the roof on the passenger side almost at the rear of the trailer (48 foot trailer) about the size of a quarter. It blew out every light on the trailer EXCEPT the one closest to where the lightning hit.

The 3rd was in also in 1985. I was in the army reserve at the time (B co, 3rd bn, 3rd rgt Ft. Snelling MN). We were on a weekend drill on patrol and happened to be in a gully between 2 hills when it hit a tree on the closest hill. The other 2 frankly I dont remember, they werent really memorable at this point.

When I was a kid I used to hang the christmas lights on the eves of the house. We didnt have a ladder that would reach the part over the driveway, so I used to lay on the roof in the snow and hang over the edge and put them up. Several times I almost slid off, but never did.

Also when I was a kid, I was on the roof of my treefort and tripped. I fell about 25 feet landing flat on my face (literally) and got up and walked away. I have been in numerous accidents that for some unknown reason walked away from, the most serious injury being a concussion when a car pulled out in front of me with me doing 50 miles an hour with no seatbelt on.

I am not a particularly religious person, but a long time ago I decided when God wants me, he is going to get me, so live your life to the fullest.

It does sounds too good to be true. But, I still hope this lucky person to stay lucky. It'd be ashame to hear a new update by 2010 that the lucky person passed away in a very unlucky fashion.

@DCer:

The doors of a lot of medium sized passenger carrying aeroplanes I've been on do open outwards on a cantilever arrangement.

The whole story sounds like the adventures of Baron Munchausen - but there are a lot of people in the world - so the odds are one or two have survived several unlikely accidents in succession.
