Statistically Unlikely Events That Happened to Everyday People

I also have one like this. This one time, I was in the forest, and I heard a growl behind me. When I looked, it turned out that it was a grizzly bear coming towards me, claws outstretched. I wrestled it and won, leaving the bear dead and bleeding on the forest floor, but unfortunately, I was by myself, and it was before smartphones.

I’m sorry, is my jealousy showing? I thought if I cast aspersions as to whether this actually happened, maybe I could make myself feel better about the fact that it would never happen to me. I often use my impressive cynicism to mask my feelings of inferiority about great achievements like this.
