no.! , now I add this useless information to make sure my post is not blocked by the ''either your post or thread title is too short. Do not use a post extender (this will result in a suspension), simply put your response in sentence format.''

One time, me and a friend were standing on the edge of a steep cliff. So, I gave them a little shove to knock them off balance, and then yelled, "SAVED YA!" Sadly, I forgot to catch them. RIP.

OT: No, I havent ever saved anyone life that I can think of. No one has saved my life either as far as I can think of. The only one I can think of is this horribly jerky guy who reached out and pulled me back from stepping in the street, but the only reason I stepped back was because he was a football player who was 2 grades above us, which was a big difference back then, and he was about to punch me as hard as he could in my arm. Lol.

I've saved my little Chihuahua from eventually getting run over on the street.
He's naturally curious and he found a small opening in out gate, wrigled under it, and left our property.
Me my neighbor and my brother were looking for him for a long time, and I eventually found him in the middle of the street. I'm sure that if I didn't find him he would of gotten run over or something.

directly saved one person's life

not sure when exactly but my sister was choking on part of a hot dog and i did the heimlich. she hasn't eaten a hot dog since, lol.
i may or may not have indirectly helped people through suicidal stuff (so, so many friends dealing with that in school) but i don't care to give myself real credit for that.

[quote=DennettFanBoy]I almost saved a life.
There was a [url=http://bugguide.net/images/cache/2LFLWLYLOLQR0H6R0H5RQHIR3ZXRFZLZULQROZIRFZKRJZ7RFZLZTZ8RTZ5ROLSZTLERSH4RVLPRHH8RTZKRCZYL6L.jpg]large cricket[/url] in my bathroom. I almost spared it, but instead decided to capture it in an altoids can. Once it was caught, I put the can over a candle flame and listened to the insect scurrying around trying to escape the burning metal. When it was sufficiently weakened, I opened the altoid can a bit and stuck a toothpick through its side. I then slowly lowered it into the candle flame and watched as it caught on fire then died.[/quote]

ugh... sorry mr. but.. actually you didnt save a life... you destroyed one!

I saved all the men at Rally Point Alpha with my Apache gunship. Hadn't I saved them, we would have to lose 6 respawn tickets.
There were Russian snipers hiding beneath a bush. Fortunately, their muzzle flash alerted me and I killed each and every one of those snipers among the mountain.

[quote=Dlazer616]Well me and my friend were scooter-ing around on the street. A car was driving by really fast, and it hit him before I could shout out. He died, right in front of me. I... couldn't.. save him. I guess I was too young to realize the enormity of the situation back then.[/quote]

Nope, but people have saved me twice . Almost choked when i was like 8, and almost drowned when i was like 6, or the other way around. Don't really remember much about those days.

I know on my end, it's [i]I hope I don't screw this up, I'm going to feel extremely awful and guilty if they go through with it[/i]

My biggest fear is one day someone will do it while on the line with me

I gave someone CPR once. I'm a lifeguard.

Yes I have. I've handled suicide attempts. I guess also indirectly, as I teach professional level CPR and Lifeguarding and have responded to roadside accidents and handling the scene

Actually...I kinda did.

My friend and me were walking to school like we do everyday,right before our school we have to cross the street and theres usually cars parked so you have to peak around them to see if cars are coming before you cross the street.

So me and my friend were talking and she forgot to look and she stept out onto the road and I pulled her back right when a car was there O-o...does that count?

no.
When my sister tried to commit suicide I didn't exactly know, so I couldn't prevent it, even though I wanted to.
Luckily she survived and she's better now.

I bought one of those environmentally safe cars they show on the commercials.
I think it saved a Polar Bear.
