00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 2: But while he was alive, he cheated death seven times.

5
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:33,800

Speaker 3: That's it.

9
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 2: That's the end of my story.

Speaker 4: Well, well, you said you were going to tell me

00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 4: a man named Jed.

13
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 2: The poor mountaineer barely kept his family fair.

14
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 3: Do you know the story? And one day he's shooting

15
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:46,480
Speaker 3: up some food.

16
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 2: Up through the ground came some bubbling crude. Next thing

17
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 2: you know, it's oil that is like gold Texas tea. Yeah,

18
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 2: we're raging ourselves.

19
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 3: Next thing, you know, Jeds and me and air, which means.

20
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: Get out of there.

21
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 4: The kinfolks said, Jed, move away from that, said California,

22
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 4: here's the place you ought to be.

23
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 2: Picked up the family, and he moved to Beverly Hills.

24
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 2: That he is wwimming pools are we're don't now I'm

25
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:13,279
Speaker 2: about this Back to my mate, Frano Slak. He cheated

26
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 2: death seven times. He survived some extraordinary incidents in all

27
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 2: kinds of transport. The first one, he was traveling by

28
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 2: a train when it suddenly derailed and fell into an

29
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 2: icy river. Despite breaking his arm, he managed to swim

30
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 2: to shore and was the only survivor of the accident.

31
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 3: Goodness.

32
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 2: A year later, he's on a plane. The door lies

33
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 2: blows open, blow to bleeding doors off. Mid flight, he

34
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 2: gets sucked out of the plane, lands on a haystack,

35
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 2: wakes up in hospital, discovers once again he's the only survivor.

36
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 2: Three years later, he's riding on a bus. It skids

37
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 2: off the road and into a river. Once again, he

38
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 2: walks away unharmed. Insurance com he decided, quite wisely, he'd

39
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 2: avoid public transportation. He buys a car, but twice its

40
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 2: engine catches fire while he's driving. Luckily, both times he

41
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 2: gets out just before the gas tank explodes.

42
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 3: Goodness.

43
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 2: Then he was hit by a bus while walking again,

44
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 2: escaped only with major injuries. And then he had his

45
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 2: biggest one. They were just bingles compared to this. His

46
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 2: most dramatic accident came when his car plunged off a cliff.

47
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 2: He jumped out just in time, grabbed onto a tree branch,

48
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 2: and saved himself from a fatal faur Wow. And then

49
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 2: so he got reborn as it were seven times. Then

50
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 2: he won a million dollars in the lottery.

51
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 3: Oh how did he pass away? Eventually?

52
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 1: Ah?

53
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 2: Well, he was born in twenty nine and died in

54
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 2: twenty sixteen, so I'm assuming that's old age. But it's amazing.

55
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 2: The headline of this story is luckiest man alive. And

56
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 2: I find all this hilarious that surely the luckiest person

57
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 2: alive is the person who none of this happens to true.

58
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: It's like if you fall over and break your arm,

59
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 2: people say lucky it didn't break your arm anually, No,

60
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 2: you're lucky because you didn't even break your arm. With

61
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 2: mentality it.

62
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 3: Is, I feel that I'm blessed.

63
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 4: When I was five years of age, I was run

64
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 4: over by a motorcycle in a back alley in Melbourne.

65
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 2: Is this like elephant Man didn't his mum when he

66
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 2: was an usual? I get trampled by an elephant and

67
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 2: he grew up to be elephant man. You got run

68
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 2: over by a bike and you grew up to love bike.

69
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 3: It was a genetic disorder yours the elephant.

70
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,239
Speaker 4: But then that led to a spade of accidents as

71
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 4: a youth. I got Then after that, I got hit

72
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 4: by a car on my pushbike. Then after that, I

73
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 4: got hit in a hit and run accident. Then I

74
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 4: got hit again by another car. And then after all

75
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 4: of that, each time i'd recover, my friend's mum ran

76
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 4: over my foot as I was getting out of the car.

77
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 4: And then I had a series of motorcycle accidents. So

78
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 4: I've had a lot of and I often think I'm

79
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 4: blessed because.

80
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 2: You look at that, and well, no, I just think.

81
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 3: I know people that have died for less.

82
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 4: So I always think my guardian angels, going, okay, mate, give.

83
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 2: It a rest. You know, when you got hit by

84
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 2: when you were younger by all those cars, were you

85
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 2: a kid that played in the street, that.

86
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 4: Was back in the days when you would And I'm

87
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 4: a pretty cautious person, i'd like to think now, But

88
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 4: back then maybe I was just a little bit too reckless,

89
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 4: I suppose.

90
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 2: But it's an interesting You had all those accidents for

91
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 2: other people knocking into you, then you buy a bike

92
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 2: and have all those accidents.

93
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I know, I know.

94
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 2: You should wrap yourself in cotton wool and just stay home.

95
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 4: I've often thought that I've been riding motorcycles since I

96
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 4: was nineteen, and I don't drive a car, so the

97
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 4: odds are stacked against me. But having said that, if

98
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 4: I went and got Evolve and wrapped myself in cotton,

99
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 4: I'd probably die in that, So you can't.

100
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 2: If you sat at home wrapped in nerve, a plane

101
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 2: would land on top of your house and it would be.

102
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 3: Filled with liquid, and that would drown me in the nerve.

103
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 2: I'm showing you well, I'm glad you're still here.

104
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 3: Well, I'm glad I'm here too friendly. Okay, that's a day.

105
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,720
Speaker 3: Come back tomorrow for more Chelseylanders kind of
