What a crock of luck!

Yoann Galeran, a french sailor in Australia, narrowly escaped death by fighting off a crocodile who had latched onto his head!

The sailor was swimming to recover a dinghy when he felt something on top of his head.

Here's how the sailor described the attack:

It's a sad fact of life that some people are AWFUL to animals!

We have no idea how someone could see an animal and want to do anything other than kiss and hug them and give them treats all day long!!

But some terrible people just don't have souls we guess.

No matter what sort of abuse was thrown at these animals, they kept on surviving.

So we celebrate these survivors who beat the odds even when life (and some terrible people) tried to keep them down!

This is so scary!

A disturbed lawyer and mother jumped out of her apartment in Harlem while she was holding her baby!!!

The woman fell the eight stories to her death, but her ten-month-old child somehow survived.

Witnesses say the mother landed on her back, and when she hit the ground - her baby bounced off of her and landed on the sidewalk. The baby immediately started crying and crawling around.

The baby was rushed to the nearest hospital, and is expected to survive.

Police searched and found in the deceased woman's apartment a seven page rambling suicide letter. Investigators believe she may have been suffering from post-partum depression.

One colleague of the lawyer/mother said:

“She was simply wonderful, very devoted to the courts, wonderful to everyone she worked with. It’s a tragedy.”

Check out more information and interviews with some who witnessed the tragic scene (above) !!!

Bo, a shepherding dog lived on his owner's rural Wyoming property.

One day, Bo made his way onto a neighboring family's property and started raiding their chicken coop.

So the neighbor's 18-year-old son grabbed his rifle and shot the dog twice, grazing his cheek and then shooting him in the back.

The young man thought the dog was dead so he asked his father what to do. His father told him to burn the dog along with the chickens the dog had killed.

Logan Henderson has a guardian angel

… and that angel's name is Marc Jacobs!

The Big Time Rush singer / actor recently survived a seriously scary motorcycle crash — and claims his saving grace was a jacket by the famous designer.

You see, the boy bander was driving to work on his bike when a car swerved in front of him. To avoid colliding with the intrusive vehicle Henderson swerved at the last second — which throw him off his bike and into the air.

Incredibly Logan survived his rough landing with only a few scraps and bruises. Thank GAWD!

The Nickelodeon star says he would have ended up a stain on the pavement if it wasn't for his faith in Jesus life-saving jacket!

Marc is practically a super hero! Logan better send him an eatable arrangement to thank him for his fabulous craftsmanship.

Here's a note to all crotch rocket junkies: aways wear a helment AND high fashion! :)

Are we actually making synthetic blood now??

Like the fake "Tru Blood" bottles that are sold to vamps in True Blood, scientists are actually creating lab-grown blood. And guess what, it works!

Scientists have found a way to make blood from bone marrow stem cells and have actually injected it into someone. The good news? They survived!

AND, what's more is that the process seems to be completely safe so far as the blood cells are behaving like normal cells.

Incredible! We doubt this will actually replace much-needed blood donors, but this is still pretty amazing in the world of science.

WOW!

A crazzyass pair of goldfish lasted an incredible 134 days in earthquake-hit New Zealand without any pet food or electricity to power their tank filter.

The two fish, named Shaggy and Daphne survived in their 26-gallon tank in the reception area of Quantum Chartered Accountants in Christchurch, where the earthquake struck.

When the people that work in the office were Daphne and Shaggy live earlier this month, they were shocked to find the two fish alive and well.

Was it the strong will and fighting sprit that kept them alive?? Nope — it was poop.

Some experts say bacteria in the tank may have kept the water clean enough to sustain life.

The fish have no memory od the events.
