    Was playing with firework artillery shells once in the 90’s on a farm. One of the launch tubes fell over and my friends watched in horror as I had won this little “spin the bottle”. A large shell careened by my face within a few centimeters.

    I still can taste the copper and feel the impact that smashed my face and caused me to die in that other timeline. Terrifying.
