Bill Morgan
It’s hard to judge whether a surviving a near-death experience is more or less lucky than winning the lottery, but Bill Morgan has done both!
Morgan was crushed by a truck and had been dead for more than 14 minutes, but somehow, he managed to survive. Though his heart was beating again, he was in a coma and expected to never regain a functional life. His family stopped life support but after 12 days, he woke up and suffered no brain damage! Once he was back on his feet, he took himself to get a scratch off ticket and won a new car. But his good fortune didn’t stop there. When television reporters heard about his situation, they invited him to reenact the winning moment by scratching another card. This time he won $250,000!
