    Frane Selak is known for his incredible near-death experiences, such as, surviving after dropping from an airplane, escaping from a train derailment, swimming to the shore after a bus accident, two car fires, being hit by a bus, and being driven off the road when a UN truck almost collides with him on a winding mountain road.
    Dubbed the luckiest unlucky man, he ended up winning the lottery jackpot - but how much exaggeration is in his life story? We can’t really leave an unsolved mystery alone, so let’s get into it.

      Brew, don't use North America a as your region on google search when trying to find information on old events within other countries. You can change your regional setting for google search so you can then find their local papers and more. Hrvatski isn't difficult. Google translate is semi accurate for the most part. Thus, you should have been able to find any information you were looking for if said events were true or not. "if you really tried". I grew up in the town of Split in Croatia, haven't been there in many years. After seeing this video, became curious and did a little searching on it myself. I would say it is all fabricated. No local papers within the regions of said incidents state any of these near death events.

    I love that you guys addressed how important Critical thinking is nowadays, not enough people are fact checking the things they share online and its causing the misinformation problem to get extremely out of hand. (especially boomers - My mum responds emotionally responds to posts on facebook extremely quickly instead of reading the entire post and fact checking it before sharing. I think this is a big problem with the older generations on social media)

    • @nate6045
      @nate6045 2 года назад +67

      And it's ironic because growing up when broadband was still brand new, boomers were the ones teaching my generation that the internet was not as trustworthy as traditional print media. We were taught how to cite sources and fact check. My dad would always tell me not to trust what I read on the internet and now the tables have really turned... with the big difference being when he told me that I trusted him because he was older and more experienced but now he won't trust me when I say the same thing because he sees me as inexperienced because of the age difference despite the fact that I grew up on the internet [insert Bane meme here] and he only uses Facebook and email.

    • @darcieclements4880
      @darcieclements4880 2 года назад +42

      I think it hits all generations, but those who never learned critical thinking are at the highest risk. Unfortunately bad school systems and parents passing on anti critical thinking is still an issue. I do appreciate that Brew has an above average level of fact checking, but being human, small mistakes still happen, then get amplified with retellings buy others. Basically, no matter the source, we all need to check primary sources before repeating.

    Having access to Croatian sources i can tell you which accounts are true.
    He was a man hungry for attention and he did legitimately win the lottery, though he never had any near death experiences, just minor car accidents that he embelished the details of over time. When the cameras were on him though he made up a bunch of stories on the spot hoping that his story would become a worldwide sensation. However, many of the stories he told were based in truth, even if they didn't happen to him himself. Of course though, he elaborated the details in each somewhat.

    Lieutenant-General Sir Adrian Paul Ghislain Carton de Wiart,[1] VC, KBE, CB, CMG, DSO, 5 May 1880 - 5 June 1963) was a British Army officer born of Belgian and Irish parents. He was awarded the Victoria Cross, the highest military decoration awarded for valour "in the face of the enemy" in various Commonwealth countries. He served in the Boer War, First World War, and Second World War. He was shot in the face, head, stomach, ankle, leg, hip, and ear; was blinded in his left eye; survived two plane crashes; tunnelled out of a prisoner-of-war camp; and tore off his own fingers when a doctor declined to amputate them.

    I’ve almost died before when I was 10.
    Me and my friends were swimming at a man made beach.
    Me, my sister, my friend Anthony and his little sister Faith were there. We were dragging Anthony into the water. Me, being the oldest (strongest and tallest) was dragging most of his weight.
    Little did we know, there was a sudden drop in the water. We all slipped and fell under. All I was thinking about was saving me and my friends. Faith, panicking was pulling my head under the water, making is harder for me to swim. Since I was the strongest and tallest, three lives (not including my own) were in my hands.
    So many people were there, and NOBODY HELPED US. NONE. NOBODY GAVE A FCK.
    There were HUGEEE floats on the shore in the way of my moms vision, so she didn’t know.
    My toes were barely touching the gravel floor, even when I was on my tippy toes. I was swinging my arms around, trying to push all of us forward. I was carrying all of our weight, (100+ lbs). It was terrifying, I could literally feel my heart pounding in my chest, I was high on adrenaline and fighting to keep my head above the water. Thankfully and fortunately, that was not our due date. We all eventually got to shore and then cried.
    My mom thought I was being “emotional” at the time and I was “overreacting” :/.
    Believe me or not, that’s your choice. But it did indeed happen.
    All and all, if you see somebody (or somebody’s) struggling. For the love of god, HELP THEM.

    I survived Serotonin Syndrome twice. The first caused my entire body to go rigid for over two days. I have a rare cranial nerve disorder that is treated with a group of antidepressants called tricyclic antidepressants. The one I was on at the time actually induced severe depression, so I was prescribed another antidepressant. The combination of the two is what set me off, but quickly withdrawing the second antidepressant reversed the syndrome. The second instance was much worse. I have severe gastrointestinal issues and have been taking Ondansetron for years for regular bouts of nausea. I accidentally took Ondansetron shortly after taking some DayQuil. As a pharmacy technician, I know that you can’t mix Ondansetron with the Dextromethorphan in DayQuil, but forgot because the cold I had was very severe and I was extremely tired. It unfortunately slipped my mind at the time. Less than an hour later, I started taking a shower. I started feeling very lightheaded, like I was going to pass out. I threw up three times on my feet, told myself to sit down because my vision was starting to go black, and that’s it. I did pass out, and was out for ten to fifteen minutes. When I woke up, I was on my back with my shower curtain and pole underneath me on the floor. My shower was still running. I had fallen out of the shower before I had a chance to sit down. It’s said that you can slip into a coma when you get Serotonin Syndrome. I managed to wake up, so I’m very lucky! Maybe I threw up enough of the DayQuil when I was in the shower? While I was on the verge of passing out at the time, the bright red-orange color of my puke is forever etched into my memory! I hope I never get Serotonin Syndrome ever again!

    I agree with the guy that said that it's not strictly important whether he actually had those near death experiences or not. What would it actually change? Storytelling, and especially exaggerating anecdotes further and further over the years of retelling, is a tradition as old as language itself, if not older, for the purpose of wonder & entertainment. these stories don't hurt anyone, and even let him live on a little longer through the telling.

    I once strted a Lada and it burst on fire so that part of the story is definitely possible :D I can even confirm it was an original factory piece of the fuel line that gave. More specificly the piece of pipe that was (soldered?) Into the carburator came loose. This was a -77 2101 model though I'm sure they're all more or less the same.

    I had a 1978 Chevy Monte Carlo. In 1990 I had some of engine work done that included a new fuel pump installed. In 1992 the fuel pump malfunctioned and filled the crankcase with gasoline. Luckily the car just stopped running and would not start. Although with a few quarts of gasoline in the crankcase it probably could have been a lot worse. After having the car towed and repaired. I drove the car another 3 years with mostly trouble free driving. I've had a lot of those could have been worse scenarios.

    I live in a world that is similar. I always manage to get the best of the worst. I don't complain. For as rough as it is, anyone around me is worse. At least it leaves me an allowance to help other poor wretches around me. It's not by any luxury I have. I'm in no better life status than they are. It's just luck. Everyone should own the selfish components of the best of intentions. It usually keeps a safe and stable environment for myself and anyone else with good intentions.

    Crazy thing is most of all that happened to me, so I was inclined to believe him.
    My mom was in a bad car accident while pregnant with me, and it disfigured her arm. I was fine, seriously can’t tell you how many car accidents I’ve been as I stopped counting after 12. 2 involved a Mac truck.
    My little geo tracker blew up as soon as I crossed the threshold of Oak Creek Assembly of God in Milwaukee and I lost control of my breaks and had to step on the emergency break and get my son out the back set who keep staring at the flames through the dash board.
    The American Airlines plane engine caught fire upon takeoff and we were transferred to another plane and the same thing happened, we were transferred to a different name plane and made it to New York safely.
    When I was in elementary living in Morgan county in Georgia it was a real bad rain storm and we had some dirt roads the school bus went on and it flipped over in a deep ditch and water was flowing like a river, that was crazy.
    As an adult I was on a city bus with my kid and baby at the time and this crazy girl in a black bmw on her phone not paying attention ran the red light and crashed right were me and my baby in the stroller was sitting. Crazy thing is I knew what was going to happen cuz she wasn’t slowing down so I held tight to my son and reposition the stroller so it was facing away from the window. Insurance only paid us $1000 what a ripoff.
    I accidentally set my science lab on fire in high school.
    And I died and came back to life when I was 7.
    I was taken hostage for 3 days before I escaped at the age of 22...
    All that ain’t even a fraction of the craziness that is Murphy’s law exemplified in my life. So if I could go through all that and I’m only 35 then it shouldn’t be hard to believe this guy’s story ... I was sad when he read the statement of the son as I thought finally I’m not alone. But I guess I am the only one who lives like this.
