I’m bored and thought this might make for an interesting thread.
What are some of the coolest, weirdest, scariest, funniest things you have seen over the course of your life.
1. I have seen the birth of both of my children by C-section. Have literally watched both children pulled through a 4 inch hole cut into my wife’s abdomen.
2. I have seen a man commit suicide by jumping of the roof of a building
3. I have seen the barrel of a gun pointed at me in a night club
4. I have seen the last breath of a dying man
5. I have seen Ronnie Hawkins ask everyone if they want to go smoke a joint at my great aunts funeral
Will add more as I think of them. What are yours?

1. I've seen the birth of my daughter in 1995. An amazing experience
2. I've seen the rings of Saturn on a warm summer's night July 27th while camping
3. I watched a man's last breath as a result of a bullet to the back chest, and despite my best efforts, couldn't revive him
4. I've seen my father cry
5. I've seen my father drunk (which was actually pretty funny at the time, as he vowed he would never have his kids see him drunk, but he was hilarious)
6. I've seen a 14yr autistic boy lift a 500lb slab of rock, with ease, in search of worms to go fishing with, then when asked to do it again, said he couldn't
No doubt there's more, but that's off the top of my head.

I've looked down the hole of a Glock pistol pointed at me during a hold up in the pizza place I worked at as a teenager.
I stared at a computer screen in disbelief after I took down an online poker tournament that started with 12,000 players
I sat and watched my father in law as he took leave of this world. Strangest feeling I've ever experienced watching someone's chest stop moving forever.
I saw a deer at the very last milisecond before she and my car collided on the I-90.
I've seen my son pass two belt tests in Tae Kwon Do so far. Being a proud parent feels awesome.
I foolishly watched a video of one of the Al-Quaeda beheadings when they were posting them online a decade ago
I watched a friend solve a Rubik's cube in under 2 minutes.
As a teenager, I watched my cousin and I on a surveillance camera as we were shoplifting cologne. After all the paperwork and charges were completed, I then watched my Mom crumble into a policeman's arms, an emotional wreck after we all got to the car I was driving and discovered the rest of the stolen clothes we'd lifted and stashed earlier.
I seen the Grateful Dead 22 times and it still wasn't enough.

I have seen the birth of my daughter,
I have witnessed the passing of my Father-in-Law, which allowed me to realize that my Mom was slipping away when her time came. It allowed me to call the family back to her room, so we could all be with her, but most importantly my Father, when she went to meet her Maker. It is the last gift he gave me, and I did not even know it at the time.
I have not had a gun waved in my face but have stared down blades on two separate occasions. One time the guy sized up myself and the rest of our group (our Militia unit was in a bar) and sobered up enough to realize it would not go well, the other time it just did not go well, period.
Like AJ, I have seen the rings of Saturn, but I have also seen the Mars, Jupiter, and Venus through a friends telescope while we were in Kee River, ON. The wonders you can see in the night sky are amazing. With the naked eye, I have seen satellites overhead (the military ones go N/S, most everything else goes E/W). i have seen the ISS pass over head, both at night and one time during daylight, when the sun and the station aligned just so.
I have witnessed my daughter win a Championship in soccer, despite my coaching skils.
I was in the Zanzibar Tavern basement lounge both times the Jays won the Series, and took pitchers of draft with me out onto Yonge St. to celebrate . . . good times.
I have seen "too much" at times, but know that I will never see "enough" of this world before I, too, go to meet my Maker.

No . . . it is either too small for his scope, or vice versa.

Can't claim the baby thing, wasn't done when my kids were born. :(
Let's see, watched a transport come head on at me travelling the wrong way on the I90, think I froze for a few seconds before reacting... He missed me by a few feet before going back into the median before overturning and sliding to a stop behind me... I pulled over and backed down the shoulder about a 1/2 km to the transport. Turns out he had blacked out and didn't remember a thing.. No one was hurt other than he had a few bruises as I recall... I don't think it hit me till next day how close I came. May have never made it to be a mod here..:(

I've had guns pointed at myself and my two brothers by a bunch of drunk US marines. There's a weird theme in this thread among forum members. What's our problem that people point guns at us?
I've seen my boy Bob (my dog) die in my arms on my living room floor. Worst experience of my life.
I've found dead bodies that were murdered.
I've seen the Las Vegas strip from the 108th floor of the Stratosphere before I jumped off of it.
That's all for now.

Great thread...
I'm also surprised at the number of gun incidents. I have to add my hat there too, guy at a house party pulled one out and pointed at me. Not really as scary as you'd think so much as surprising IMO.
I've seen a schoolmate nearly sever his finger off in a grinder (blood and bone clearly visible - as well as a gnarly mix of pain fear and worry on his face).
I've seen one of my own limbs nearly destroyed by an industrial machine.
I've seen numerous, significant car crashes.
I'm guessing we're not crediting internet views much (so much for Costanza's contributions).
I've seen an outstanding collision at home plate no further than 30 feet away that resulted in a game-ending play, and significant bleeding.
I've seen many dead bodies, as they die, before application of the mortician's skills, and after (good and bad jobs).
