Hey Pandas, Have Your "Spidey-Senses" Ever Saved You?

Maybe doesn’t count, but Yes! I totally forgot where in Columbia I was, but i was in Columbia. We boated to this little Peruvian island, full of tress I tell you. I felt pain on my leg for some reason, and was close to water. I assumed the water would soothe the this, so I stepped a few feet away from where I was standing to get water and… snap 🙂 The tree I was standing under a few seconds ago fell, right where I was standing..

It's not for me, but my mom. My mom was out somewhere and a guy asked her about something, she was freaked out so she denied it... Days later she saw he was arrested for assault.

My uncle had a beautiful glass vase. A former neighbor, who gave lectures about area glass pieces, called and asked if he could take it to his house and take some pictures for slides.
All of a sudden, I got this overwhelming sense of dread, I had never had this happen so deeply before. I told him if he lets the vase out of the house, he would never see it again. He looked at me, not knowing what to do. But in the end, he loaned the vase to him.
I wasn't there when he returned it. It wasn't the same vase but one much lower in value, wrapped up and hurriedly left with my grandmother.
My uncle had MS, how could anyone be that mean to someone disabled. It was so sad.
I wish he had taken my advise but I understand it was hard for him to believe that it would end like it did.

I'm sure we've all played dodgeball at least once in our lives, and I have recently been playing it a lot in P.E. Several times I've had the feeling somebody is behind me and ready, and had moved out of the way, only to see a ball flying real fast by my head. I tell you, I could've gotten a concussion several times had I not listened to my "spidey-senses". Either that or a bump 10 feet tall like in those children cartoons.

My mom once went and stood by the phone saying her mother was going to call. She said it was bad, she was crying and shaking. About 20-30 minutes later, my grandmother called to tell her her father had a stroke and didn't make it.
Another time I was given permission to go to a party in HS. My parents talked to their parents so let me go. I was a year younger than all my classmates (I was 15, they were 16 & 17). About an hour before I was going (about 5pm) mom suddenly changed her mind, said I couldn't go, that she had a bad feeling. I was mad and upset, but she wouldn't budge. Since I couldn't go, my BFF stayed at my house with me. On the late news was a story about a garage fire. Turned out someone tossed a match or cigarette or something where the flammables were. No one noticed the fire at first, then something just exploded. There were over 30 kids at the party, many out in the alleyway behind the garage. No one died, but several were seriously injured and burned, most had small injuries. The worst were those in the garage, including one parent. It was a horrible accident and I would have been there if not for my mom. When she saw the news, she came in my room and just hugged us, crying. I listen when she gets a feeling like that.
I've only ever gotten feeling about people, usually as soon as I meet them there is just something that makes me not want to really know them or be around them. It's never definitive, or a conscience decision, I just don't want to be around them. Eventually I always find out something about them that makes me happy I never hung around them. Had that feeling w/ a guy friend was dating. She got pregnant and married him. Begged her not to. 4 months later she calls me scared because he is punching holes in walls, threatening her and the baby. I made an hour drive in 25 minutes with my roommate. Got there as he was trying to hit her w/ whatever he threw. He didn't want a baby, she trapped him, etc. We got ALL her belongings (clothes, furniture, EVERYTHING) out and into our 2 cars and 1 truck. (Her cR, my cat her brother truck)The next day I drove her to N
Her moms. Her ex totally trashed the apartment, and the outside patio. We had filed a police report and notified the apartment owners about what was going on. He was on security tapes, so was liable. He wanted nothing to do with the baby. He 2 wives (later) both divorced because of violence. I think she dodged a bullet. And my goddaughter grew up amazing!

once I was walking my little cousin to the tire swing and I heard something so I turned around. It was just a bird but when we turned back around to go to the swing the rope snapped. it almost fell on me and her

I was 16 and sitting on the steps, waiting for my mom to pick me up from the library after closing. This was a suburban library branch on a quiet tree lined street.
All of a sudden I felt *terrified.* I could see a male bicyclist coming and was sure this was it—that this man would approach and something terrible would happen. But the biker didn’t, he just passed on by.

At that point I was almost laughing at myself when two men in a sedan pulled up (I am still angry at myself for not paying attention to the make or model or trying to get the plate number). They unrolled the window and asked if I wanted a ride to the city. I shook my head no and the driver attempted to cajole me. Said no again audibly. Then the driver said something along the lines of, “you’re getting a ride with us.” At that point my mom pulled up behind him. I will never forget the man saying, “Just in time, it’s your lucky day,” before they pulled off.

As an adult I am pretty angry with my mom in retrospect for not taking this seriously.

I was play-sparring my friend, he lunged foreward trying to grapple me. I leaned back and lost my balance. I did a backflip roll thing and regained balance. My friends were in awe. Thats the closest I will get to a backflip.

No, but my spidey senses are tingling rn regarding a relationship i am in and i dont know what to do about it

I was 15. My boyfriend showed up at my house drunk. Sloppy drunk. My mom wasn't home and he had to go home, no matter the circumstance, but especially this one. So, my brilliant idea? I'll ride along to make sure he got home safe. I tried to get him to let me drive but he wouldn't. We wrecked twice. Just spun out in sharp curves because he was going way too fast. We didn't hit anything so he kept going. Finally, I looked over and he was back at 120. He held the wheel and jerked it and we started sliding sideways and I saw 2 trees in our path. A surreal voice boomed in my ear, "if you jump out, you will live." I didn't hesitate. I opened my door and was ejected. I lived. Had I stayed I'd be dead because the impact from the trees and the parked car he hit was all on my side. He walked away without a scratch.

I was drinking water in midnight and my spidey sense made me hear the falling books.l moved quickly by streching my arm and catched few books.

22 years ago, my hubby (we had been married for 2 days), my two sons and I were traveling to our new home 1500 miles away from where we had lived. He was driving the U-Haul truck and I was driving our van. We were spending the night in a nice hotel. The next day, the route we had inked out would have taken us through Chicago. I had an overpowering fear and told him I can't go through Chicago. I was quite afraid. So he said we would get the map and find a different route. We did and my fear went away. Several hours into the next day's travel, the van stopped running. We were in a small town in the middle of Illinois. We found a dealership 2 blocks away, they towed the van and gave us a loaner car to go eat lunch while they fixed the van. When we sat down, my new hubby said "You know, if we had taken our original route, we would be on the interstate right outside of Chicago right now." I can't imagine being broken down on I-90 with a van full of stuff. Since then we have always paid attention to my "premonitions" or whatever they are. I have had others and they have never been wrong. A bit creepy but not wrong.

I used to play in the street with my friends and we were on our bikes in the middle of the road talking it wasn’t a busy road but for some reason there was a maniac driving a car and if we had not been like we have to move we would all have been flattened

One time me and my sister were riding our bikes and this truck turned on to the street we were on and I immediately got a bad feeling, so I made my sister get infront of me and we sped up. We went in a complete circle and turned around and went the other way. And the truck was still following us so we sped up even more and lost it. To this day I think if I wouldn't have had a bad feeling we would have been kidnapped that day.

I almost stepped on a very rusty nail barefoot

My best friends spidy sense dropped him on my lap... The bus turned suddenly and he lost his balance, instant friend for life (poor guy)

Mine saved my life a few times.
Stopped me turning despite the road being clear, only for a car to hurtle out of a side-street without looking for puny cyclist.
Made me stay behind the bunker wall for nine seconds longer than safety needed and the gizmo exploded (it was a furby... Long story...)
Once, even saved me from a rusty trap someone left in the woods!

Listen to yourself, intuition, spirit or whatever you want to call it. 9/10 it's for the best!

Once, I was in the parking lot of a Walmart w/ my mom. So, basically, I was in the parking lot, our trunk facing to the road (outward) and I was putting things in there. I was about to step back to close the trunk, but something in me SCREAMED for me to NOT STEP BACK. So I didn't and seconds later, a car comes SPEEDING (i'm not talking a little fast, I mean illegal speeding fast)...RIGHT where I was about to step back.

I was riding with my dad across the street (on bikes). Suddenly, I stopped (sometimes there is this place to stop between street's pieces), my dad was still driving. The car slowed down, but then suddenly started to speed up while I was trying to ride across - if I hadn't stopped, I'd be dead now...

Once I was with my mum on a walk, my little brother was in stroller. We were crossing the street, suddenly I jumped back on the pavement and pulled family with me. Something like a second later, the car was riding quickly, it wouldn't stop on time. We could've die there.

Not really saved me, One day (Christmas eve) I was bored out of my mind and I then I felt as though something was gonna happen. So the right as I stood up, my dad entered the house with a corgi puppy.
