A situation where you quite possibly could have died? Sure. Are we sharing?
1. Two guys...one w/ a knife to my belly and the other w/ a gun to my head...I knew they wanted to kill me but not bad enough...was close but I got out of it
2. riding in a truck doing 80mph that hit an embankment and flipped seven or eight times. No seat belts. Now that one I fully expected to die. The driver and I both crawled out of what was left of the truck w/ only a few scratches and bruises
3. was this close to a bomb that didn't go off.
A couple of other things.
I don't consider those near death experiences as in seeing a bright white light in a tunnel. Just close calls.
I hope your brother appreciates what you did .
