As far as wrecks and stuff goes..
I saw a woman come hauling ass down a side street, doing 60 at least, run the stop sign, get slightly airborne, and crash into a 3/4 ton older Chevy truck. The car kept going into the high school across the road, and hit a pole, spin a couple of times and stop. The woman in the truck had her legs caught up in the brake and gas pedals, and both legs were broken, too. Those old trucks had the gas tank inside the cab (Who thought that up?) and she was covered in gas. The hood was stuck and there was a lot of smoke coming out. The woman in the truck was begging us not to let her burn up, and to pull her out the cab window before the truck caught on fire. Just as we were about to, the cops came, and took three big fire extinguishers and got the hood open and sprayed everything down. They used the jaws of life to get the woman in the truck out. She was all messed up. The woman driving the car was fine, not a scratch, until the cops told her she was under arrest for DUI, then she "collapsed". The hurt woman won a huge lawsuit against her a couple years later, and she got on TV, crying about how she "Lost everything" and made the same crazy claim she made the night of the wreck, that the truck didn't have it's lights on. It did, but she wouldn't ever have seen them anyway, as she was flying though the air at the point she might have seen it. If you live in Las Vegas, this was in front of Valley High School at Eastern and Harmon(might be wrong on the cross street).
A kind of funny one was I was on 475 in Toledo, and there was a kid driving a green Grand Am like a total buffoon. He was going about 90 or so when he flew past me. As he approached an area where there was traffic merging in on the right, some guy in the right lane started to change lanes when the guy in the Grand Am was right on top of him, and the moron in the Grand Am lost control and it went on it's side, sliding for a long time, then it hit an expansion joint, and did about 3 barrel rolls and would up sliding on the roof for a while before it stopped. About six cars, including me, pull over onto the shoulder to help him. He's yelling about his hand, and finally he crawls out the passenger side window, and he reaches out and some guy pulls his hand to help him get up, and we can all see why. His pinky, ring finger, and part of his palm on his left hand has been ground off! The cops and parmedics arrive, and shortly before they take him away, his mom, dad, and GF pull up, and the GF takes one look at his car, starts wailing, then sees him on the stretcher talking, and is overjoyed, then pukes when she sees his hand. He had his hand sticking out of the partially closed window as the car went on it's side, and the pavement ground it partway off.
Another thing was on one of the LA freeways. There was a guy driving really fast that passed me at about 100MPH. There was way too much traffic to do this, but he was changing lanes and cutting people off well enough to keep from crashing. He dissapeared into traffic after a while, and then suddenly traffic started backing up, and a large cloud of black smoke appeared off to the right. After the traffic started slowly moving, and we went around a right turn, there was a car visible, on fire. The fire trucks were just pulling up, and started spraying the car down. Inside was the charred corpse of the idiot that passed me earlier, he had been cut off, lost control and slammed into a sound barrier wall, and the car exploded. The news said later that night that he was "reportedly driving erractically before the accident!", Then they said he was concious. and screaming after the wreck and some guy was hurt trying to get him out of the car.
And one thing I didn't see, but sure wish I had. There was a girl I went to HS with, one of those perky cheerleader types, not the greatest looking, IMO anyway, but not replusive. She was STUPID though. And still is. She and her daughter were putting up a drapery rod, and she has to cut the end off to length with a sabre saw. Somehow she does, and completely cuts her hand off at the wrist too! I really don't understand how you can do this, a saw with a hacksaw type blade doesn't cut very quickly, and you would think it would hurt and she would stop pretty quickly, but it didn't. They reattached it, and it's nearly as good as ever.
