Shit like this happens all the time, unfortunately. I can tell you like 10 similar stories and those are just the ones I'm socially connected with.

I've got a worse one. I knew a kid who wanted a streetbike for years and his dad simply wouldn't allow it. Eventually his dad caved in and agreed to buy him a streetbike if he went to a bunch of motorcycle safety courses, in addition to the one you have to take to get your license. Dude went to these classes for like 3 months, got his license. His dad goes out and gets him a Jixer, however the fuck you spell it (SICK bike). His dad gave it to him on his birthday, and they decided to go on his 1st ride (dad was gonna follow behind him in a truck to make sure he knew what he was doing). They got to the 1st intersection (Route 40). The kid pulled up to the redlight and stopped. A tractor trailer coming through the intersection, the driver had fallen asleep and moved the wheel to the right.... ran the kid over at 50mph in a tractor trailer. His dad was only 10 ft behind him and saw the entire thing.

And this is the reason why I don't have a streetbike.

That's fucking crazy!

yeah it almost sounds like some unbelievable story/movie that's "based on a true story".. but seriously looking at the whole situation it had to be fate or just a extreme rare coincidence?

I would hate to think it was fate, I'd rather just consider it to be "ironic" and extremely coincidental. There's more than a few times in my life I could have, or should have easily died, but narrowly escaped with my life. Makes me think it's just luck, but also I feel like there had to be somebody or something watching my back a few times. I don't even like thinking about that shit tbh. But whatever the case is, it's fucked up and makes you wonder if there is a God... why the fuck would he do that? Or why would he / she let that happen? Tragic shit.
