Naturally keep in mind you're sharing this story on an immutable blockchain so make sure it's not something you'd regret having shared later.
But got this idea from reading a recent askreddit thread and remembered something I may not have posted here before. Also curious what hivers would have to share!
Either way, this is something that has happened to me.
I was in a city in finland which I usually don't visit often, especially not that section. I had to get some books from the library for something I was studying at the time. It was winter and a very snowy one, there were heaps on the side of the road and sand everywhere to prevent sliding and falling.
I was checking my phone for Google maps to make sure I make my way back since I had exited through the other library exit which required me to go a slightly different route for a few blocks. As I was walking I stopped around the corner and tried to light up a cigarette (I had recently started smoking after military service). Usually the lighter would work on the first try but maybe cause it was extra windy or cause I was right in the corner of a building it took me a couple extra tries to get it to work.
Either way, I continue walking and look put my phone away now as I'm about to walk onto the same road I came from at the next intersection when all of a sudden a loud noise and an explosion of snow on the ground erupts right in front of me, it couldn't have been further than a couple meters. I stood there looking around to see if anyone had noticed what just happened, there was no one else on that side of the street. I look up and notice this giant curtain of snow and ice at the top of th3 building close to falling over the roof and then I notice the yellow plastic line at the side of the sidewalk. I should not have walked there as it was prone for snow/ice fall from the roof. I quickly hug the wall and make my way to the intersection real quick and keep thinking how close I was to just getting my head smashed in or body badly injured from what must've been at least half a kilo of ice and snow crashing right in front of me.
Also was kind of thankful my lighter didn't work properly that one time out of all times as maybe I would've been a few steps ahead in that case and right in its trajectory.
Or you know, don't just look at your phone when walking so you don't enter streets that are meant to be closed off.
Anyway, anything happened to you that you couldn't believe?
Don't think Sora understood what I meant with my prompt, if it was this obvious I would've noticed it xD.
