That would be cruel so I'll leave that up to you in the comments.

或許有點殘忍，所以我會讓你們自己評論。

Some people are just lucky. Not like run of the mill won a free dinner or even a car lucky,

有些人只是幸運，不像只是有個免費的晚餐或者是運氣，

but mind-bendingly, improbability-drive style lucky. They should be dead and buried,

不但驚人也是不可能的幸運，大部分的他們應該死了或屍首被埋了，

probably in many, many pieces.But they aren't. So here's our list of five people who survived

但他們沒有，所以這裡我們列出了五個存活的人

the absolute worst, and came out the other side.There seems to be a bit of a plane crash

是最糟的情況，是從另一個世界回來的，這些故事都有點相關空難

theme to these. Sorry. Actually I'm not really sorry, they're still all awesome stories of survival.

抱歉，但實際上我不這樣覺得，這些人的存活仍是令人讚嘆的故事。

tarmac at twice the usual speed and even snapping an arrester cable designed placed over the

the barriers at the far end of the airfield. And when the pair got out of the plane?

How Juliane survived remains a mystery, but it's thought her seat was part of a row of three

Better known as the Andes flight disaster or the miracle of the Andes, though that's

Frane Selak

Frane Selak

A little like the assault on Itter Schloss from our five wierdest battles of World War Two

有點像我們之前拍過的「第二次世界大戰裡5場最奇怪的戰役」中，戰役Itter Schloss

Frane was born in 1929 in Croatia. His first brush with death came in 1962.

from the plane which then crashed. Nineteen people died in the disaster. Frano? Well he landed in a haystack.

There are several lessons to be learned from Frane's example. One, never buy second hand cars in Croatia.

Two, never, EVER, EVER get onto any form of transport with Frane Selak.

第二個，絕對不要跟Frane Selak坐同一個交通工具。

Unless you got a lottery scratchcard in your pocket.

除非在你的口袋有張刮刮樂。
