What is the stupidest way you almost died?

I once went to Organ with my friend and my twin back in high school to my friends grandparents place. they had a fair bit of land up in the mountains that we could just mess around on. the first thing we did was get into there mule. for those who dont know what that is, its basically a off road golf cart. my friend was the only one with driving experience and knew the land/layout off the mountain. so he took us around the area so we can see what they owned and what they didn't. but the mule only had 2 seats. however it had a small bed, so i climbed into that while my twin took the passenger seat. one of the "trails" that we went on/down was about 70 degrees. it was over grows really bad so all we saw was a little sun light ahead of us and bushing all around. my friend took it really slow all the way down and soon we hit a large dirt road. we went back to the house and grab a few rifles after we knew where we could do our thing and where we couldn't. but my twin wanted to drive really badly. i kept telling him no but my friend didn't want to drive anymore. as we are about to leave my friend jumps in the back with me thinking it would be fun. my bro was taking everything to fast we where throw up and down, left to right and at some points got a good amount of air. then we hit that steep hill going strait down. he floors it. he forgets that at the bottom of the hill there is a slight ditch so he stomps on the break, the fucking thing had breaks of glass. panicking he tries to steer us into the bushes on our left. turns out it was the side of the mountain covered with vegetation which ramps us in the air and we nose dive. the golf cart from hell acts like a catapult and throws my friend and i out of the bed rifles in hand about 30 feet from the vehicle. i remember looking to my right mid air and seeing my friend fly through the air like superman then just darkness. i land really hard and slid about another 10 feet. when i opened my eyes my front half of my body was hanging off a 50 foot drop strait down. the plants where so over grown that it had hid the fact that we where on a extremely narrow trail with a wall on one side and a drop on the other. i push myself back and turn around thinking that im going to find some dead kids. my friend is laying on his back bleeding from his mouth and a rifle with its stock covered in blood. then my twin pops out of the side of the mule that had flipped on its side and says one word, "Fuck". i run over to my friend to see if hes alive, the rifle had hit him in the mouth giving him the worst bit lip i have ever seen. he says that hes fine and we all just looked at each other and start laughing are heads off. we flip the mule back over and tell my twin hes never aloud to drive again and agree not to tell the grandparents even thought my friend might have needed stitches. we still talk about it and laugh every time.

TL;DR: my brother flipped a off road golf cart with me and my friend in the bed flinging us almost over a cliff.
