deeobserver209: Life is full of mystery. Someone falls down the stairs and the next thing you know is the person is dead. Another person falls down 33,000 feets from a plane and survives.

God at work.

Roy Sullivan: Struck by Lightning 7 Times

Roy Sullivan was a Virginia Forest Ranger who had an
incredible attraction to lightning... or rather lightning
had an attraction to him. Over his 36-year career as a
ranger, Sullivan was struck by lightning seven times -
and survived each jolt, but not unscathed. His seventh
strike put him in the Guinness Book of World Records:
In 1942, the first lightning strike shot through
Sullivan's leg and knocked his big toenail off.
In 1969, a second strike burned off his eyebrows and
knocked him unconscious.
In 1970, another strike left his shoulder seared.
In 1972, his hair was set on fire and Roy had to
dump a bucket of water over his head to cool off.
On August 7, 1973, another bolt ripped through his
hat and hit him on the head, set his hair on fire again,
threw him out of his truck and knocked his left shoe
off.
On June 5, 1976, a sixth strike in 1976 left him with
an injured ankle.
On June 25th, 1977, the last lightning bolt to hit Roy
Sullivan sent him to the hospital with chest and
stomach burns in 1977.
His wife was also struck once, when a sudden storm
welled up as she and her husband were out hanging
wash on the back yard clothesline. On September 28,
1983, Roy Sullivan died at age 71, reportedly of a self-
inflicted gunshot wound over troubles unrelated to
lightning.

God saved him that much and yet went ahead to take his own life. smh

Frane Selak: Escaped from a derailed train, a door-less
plane, a bus crash, a car into flames, another 2 car
accidents... then won Million Dollar lottery!

Luck has always been on his side or vice versa for
croatian music teacher Frane Selak (born in 1929), who
is well known around the world for as many fatal
accidents as spectacular escapes. The first of his
numerous near-death experiences began on a cold
January day in 1962, when Selak was on a train to
Dubrovnik: it suddenly derailed into an icy river, killing
17 passengers. He managed to escape with a broken
arm, minor scratches and bruises.
A year later, Selak was flying, from Zagreb to Rijeka,
when a door abruptly blew away from the cockpit of the
plane, as he was blown off the plane. The accident killed
19 people, however, Selak was lucky enough to land on
a haystack, and wake up some days later in hospital,
with minor injuries.
It was in 1966 that he met with the third misadventure
while traveling on a bus that crashed and plunged into a
river. There were four people dead. Astonishingly, Selak
managed to escape unharmed again.
In 1970, Selak was driving along when, all of a sudden,
his car caught fire. He was fortunate again to have left
the car before the fuel tank exploded. Three years later,
another of Selak’s car caught fire, blowing flames
through the air vents. To a greater dismay, Selak's lost
most of his hair.
In 1995, Selak was in Zagreb when he was hit by a bus,
again leaving nothing but a few injuries. The following
year, while driving through a mountain road, Selak drove
off a guardrail to escape an oncoming truck and landed
on a tree to watch his car explode 300 feet below.
In a surprising turn of events in 2003, Selak won the
million-dollar Croatian lottery, turning the man into
either the world’s unluckiest man, or the world’s
luckiest one.

What?!?!?! You think the devil is going to protect you from death?? Instead of running to God, you are begging the devil to protect you? Chei!!!! The way people think at times. It is appointed for man to die once and then the judgement. What exactly do you intend to tell God during the judgement.
