Worst thing you've ever had done to you/ witnessed.

If someone was drowning in a fast moving river and you were the only one around and you know you can't swim. Would you jump in, risking your life as well since you can't swim and there's a strong current?

Additional info: NO, there is nothing around you that you can throw in and yes you are certain you can't swim, let alone float. Finally, you don't have a phone around and you wouldn't have time to call or wait around since the water would have swept him away miles farther by then, if he hadn't already died by that time. It's a yes or no question, no option C please. Please don't ask what kind of guy/girl is drowning either...

simple answer for a simple question. Nope.......
 
A man on motorcycle hit by a truck on a lonely, dark road - motorcycle's engine and lights on, man lying down at the side with his brain popped out.

Did not ride a motorcycle after that for 6 months - it still traumatizes me to this date.
 
Oh god. The worst thing I ever saw was on a bus here in the city. A woman had what was maybe a 1 year old little girl in a stroller. The girl was literally screaming and pushing her feet on the floor away from the woman. This went on the whole ride. The woman did nothing at all to calm the girl- she ignored her. I was annoyed to say the least. Then we got off the bus at the same stop.

That was when I realized why the little girl was acting the way she was. The woman struck the little girl in the face with her fist so hard she started bleeding from her lip! I lost it. I yelled at her that I saw her hit the girl. "Hey! I saw that! You hit that little girl again and I'll hit you." "I didn't hit her!" "Lady! You hit her! I saw you! She's bleeding and screaming!" She took off. I have always wondered what happened to that poor little girl. I felt so helpless. I called the police, but I really had very little to tell them. I had no name, just a description.
 
THE worst thing I EVER saw was back a few years ago. I took my Mother out for lunch to Friday's restaurant near the Staten Island Mall in Staten Island, NY and I went to use the ladies' rest room and I saw a man who was just about to start molesting a little girl of about 5 years of age. I started screaming the man picked up the little girl and ran out of the firedoor near the ladies' restroom. The waitresses ran in and they got the manager who called the NYPD who arrived in like 2 minutes. I gave them a description of the man and the little girl. GOD I HOPE that little girl was found alive and OK. This is something you hear about on the tv news and something you do NOT think you will ever see with your very own eyes.
 
I am a train conductor. Seeing people who just committed suicide via my train is an ugly site. Happens all too often.

I can only imagine... I've wondered that before, what it'd be like to be the person driving the train. So sad... What do you describe as "too often"? That's not a good thing to hear
 
I've lived a fortunate life and thankfully can't contribute in terms of having personally experienced a horrific incident, but as a professional counselor I have witnessed terrible things happen to others.

One foster child I worked with had been in more than 15 different failed placements with multiple failed adoptions. He was so numb to things that he didn't refer to his past placements as homes or even people but talked about them by number.

"At home #4 I was abused. The kids at school #8 were nice to me, but I couldn't stay there. Mom #13 used to yell at me" and so on. His disassociation was heartbreaking. No one should have to experience what that poor young man had been through. :(

I walked in on a college roommate jacking off. That was pretty bad.

Really? That's the worst? I couldn't count the times that happened to me. I even walked in on a threeway once in college. I was even caught a few times.

You've had a good life if that's the worst thing! :D

Whoa! You do have a point! That must have been soul-shattering. :)

Not soul shattering, but disturbing nonetheless ;)

But really, I don't think I've seen anything half as bad as what people describe. I've never watched someone die, or seen a dead body or anything like that.

Totally off topic, but I'm curious: what if you walked into a female pleasuring herself? Would you be indifferent, disgusted or otherwise?

Indifferent? I doubt anyone would be.
Disgusted? Nope.
Embarrassed? Depends on the relationship…

Disappointed that it wasn't her brother? Hell yes! :mad::p

I viewed an entire gore thread on 4chan.

Why would you do that to yourself :eek:

Worst thing that I witnessed was some crazy racist motorist kicking the side of a car because he couldn't cut in front of it and jump the traffic lights.

I say worst because the family inside seemed pretty shaken up. The police got involved and I gave a witness statement. I got a letter before Christmas saying that he was going to court. Hopefully they throw the book at him.
