There is something particularly chilling about moments when people have a feeling that something will go wrong, whether it’s a voice they hear or just a gut feeling. Recently, redditor u/TheRealGreedyGoat asked the r/AskReddit community to share their scary “trust your gut” moments. One story shared was about a grandfather who felt like he was about to go through the windshield of a car, so he buckled his seatbelt and moments later, a car hit his side of the car, but he walked away with only fractured ribs. Another person shared how they had a feeling to sit in their car before leaving for an appointment, and moments later, they witnessed a crash that killed two people. Another story involved a teenager who moved to the back of a trailer right before it flipped over into a ravine.

One person mentioned feeling a gut-twisting nauseating feeling before driving through a green light, avoiding being crushed by two pickup trucks slamming into each other. Another shared how they felt followed by a car on their way home, leading them to drive around in circles until the car finally drove off. In another story, someone’s friend had a bad feeling about sneaking out and riding in the back of a truck one night, and they both backed out, only for the truck to flip with two friends in the back who were hospitalized for weeks.

Another story revealed how a woman’s gut feeling about a friendly gentleman offering to buy her dinner turned out to be correct as he was later revealed to be a serial killer. Another person shared how their dead best friend ‘visited’ them in a dream and warned them about serious health issues. A pregnant woman’s gut feeling about inducing early due to Lyme disease preventing damage to her placenta saved her son’s life according to the pathology report.

One person recalled a chilling story about a youth club leader who they refused to take their shirt off in front of, later turning out to be a murderer. Another person shared how they felt sick and decided to take a sick day, while their colleague was involved in a car crash where the passenger seat was completely crumpled. Other stories included a girl avoiding a potentially dangerous stalker by listening to her gut instinct, and a person slowing down their car just in time to avoid hitting a herd of donkeys on a dark, remote road in Australia.

One mother’s gut feeling about her baby’s breathing led to a life-saving intervention at the hospital. Another person had a sudden urge to study the Heimlich maneuver and ended up using it to save their cousin’s girlfriend who was choking on a pill. Additionally, stories were shared about avoiding potentially dangerous situations at a house party with gunshots, a youth club event where a murder occurred, and an explosion that left many injured. These stories emphasize the importance of listening to and trusting one’s gut instincts in potentially dangerous situations.
