VIDEO: SCARY BY-THE-SKIN-OF-YOUR-TEETH MOMENTS!

We have seen countless fails where people just fall flat on their faces and it's pretty funny. But close calls are enough to make your heart stop just for a second and make you go "phew". This video records some of the closest calls that could have turned into an absolute disaster.

Whether you escape a car crash without a scratch or actually manage to avoid a car crash narrowly, we have to wonder if its fate.

Check out some of the luckiest people on earth in the video below!
