Let's see . . .
Dec '96, passenger in 4X4 which rolled on my side. Looked bad (lost a lot of blood), but in truth appearances were much worse than actual injuries.
9 days later, head on collision with a drunk driver. Both vehicles were totalled. Walked away from accident without even a scratch, although the drunken fools were seriously injured.
3 months later contracted a bad case of malaria. Once I went to the doctor he told me I'd be dead in 24 hours if the medication he gave me didn't work. He was upset that I had waited so long before I went to see him. Fortunately the medication worked.
I prayed for death during my bout with malaria. That was much worse than the dengue fever I had a year later.
Needless to say, that was a rough 4 months!
