Surviving 1000m plunge: 'I became strangely calm' - World - www.smh.com.au

I know this feeling... I had the same thing when I hit a car doing 70km/h on my bike in 1989. I remember resigning myself to the fact that I was going to die. Everything went black and silent. I remember sliding along the road and then immediately standing up. Then the next thing I remember was that I was in someones house with blankets wrapped around me, my feet in warm water. There is a photo of me somewhere with my twisted wreck of a bike and heavily bandaged body under the sign at Bundanoon: "Constitution Hill - Cyclists advised to walk".
