Alcohol saved my life.




Well, according to the paramedics and doctors that saw me, they said if I had not had a large amount of alcohol in my system at the time of the accident, I may have died from stroke or heart attack.

that is why most drunk drivers aren't as injured as the people they hit because they are more relaxed, etc.

Its true. Alcohol will prevent the body from going into shook. Just don't be like me and try to jump from 5 stories up into the snow. If I hadn't been stopped nothing good would of come from it.
