Have you ever heard of any really crazy stories lately? Sometimes you'll hear about a really crazy event, or an act of valliant survival. If you haven't seen a crazy story then try watching a show like 20/20 or something like that, i'd almost bet you'd find atleast one. There will be several ones that I will touch on during this essay-type assignment.  Some even as severe as to cut off a body part, or pull a rocket propelled grenade out of an injured soldier!

The first story I will touch on will be one that I heard of back in the Summertime. There was this farmer who lived in Colorado and he went hunting up in the mountains. On his trip he took a big horse trailer and his truck. When he was about to pack up and head home, he got pinned against a rock and the trailer rolled on to his foot, crushing his toes. He was then forced to cut off his toes... with his pocket knife... all five of them! He then got to a hospital where he was treated and now is doing fine!

The next story I will touch on is one about a military soldier and the fearlessness of his companions. One day a vehicle that was carrying several army troops was taking them to their destination when they were hit with an ambush. One of the troops was hit with an RPG rocket directly in his upper leg/stomach. The crazy part was that it didn't blow up. His troops took him back to base where he was then operated on. The Doctor showed much courage because he actually performed surgery and removed the RPG!! This showed courage because the whole time there was a chance that it could've exploded and killed alot of people. However it didn't and they took the RPG and properly disposed of it, and everyone survived.
