I think one of the reason there are so many anxious people these days is cuz we are all exposed to such rare rare occurances on a daily basis from the news that we just learn to fear so many things that don't make sense. Does anyone have any fears that you know has a 1-in-a-billion chance of happening, but it sometimes shows up in the back of your head?
whenever i am on a long drive, atleast a couple of times i think of what happened to film director Alan J Pakula. This is what happened:
He was killed when another car struck a metal pipe lying in the road and it flew into the windshield of his car.
i never heard this happening to another human being, and even if a car does strick a metal pipe in the road, for it to go flying through your windshield and then penetrating your skull, its just such a 1-in-a-billion shot. But its so scary,to think that one second your driving and the next, some metal pipe flies through your skull out of nowhere. Gives me the heebiejeebies. this happened 11 years ago but i still think about it to this day
