Before winning the lottery, this guy survived 7 near-death accidents including a plane crash!

Frano Selak, is a Croatian music teacher with plenty of anecdotes to tell. It all started in 1962, when a train going to Dubrovnic when his train ended up in a frozen river after jumping the rails. A broken arm and hyphotermia were the consecuences for Frano. Seventeen people died.

He survived a plane crash a year later, after a door flew open and 19 people died. He then survived to a bus sunk in a river, his car's engine exploding, another car burning, being run over by two different buses and finally his Skoda falling to a precipice.

In the end he won around 1 million dollars with his first ever lottery ticket. As a pensioner, he decided to give the money away to his friend and family.
