Ultimate in bad luck... sort of

CRChair pointed out this story to me of an Olympic wrestler who survived a plane crash. But what is more interesting is how many times he has cheated death.

Five years ago, he was snowmobiling in Wyoming when he became separated from a friend while trying to pass over a ridge in deep snow...He lost a toe to frostbite after that close call...Shortly before his final Olympics, Gardner was struck by an automobile while riding a motorcycle to practice. That time, he walked away with only abrasions and a sore left heel....When he was a kid, he punctured his abdomen while playing with a bow and arrow while his parents were out of town. The doctor said Gardner had just missed puncturing a vital organ.

How many lives can one man have?
