Default By far the luckiest and most deserving man

Watching discovery channel the other day and heard such an amazing story....

Bill Morgan, from Australia, had a heart attack in 1999. his heart was stopped for 14 minutes and 38 seconds. the doctors were going to turn off his life support when another hospital stepped in and took over his care.
He made a full recovery, met the love of his life, got married and one day decided to buy a scratch-card. He won a brand new car.

A local TV station wanted to re-create the moment he won the car for the news, so he goes to the same store he bought the first one, a guy barges past him and buys 2 of the same tickets and storms off. he buys the last one in the store.....scratches off the layer.......he wins $250,000 australian dollars.

probably the most feel good thing i have ever heard.

all the best to the bloke i say.

Right - so Chris8886 had 5 cardiac arrests and he arrives back today. I'm going to meet him at the airport, give him a pound and ask him to buy me a lottery ticket.
