Frane Selak of Croatia is said to be the unluckiest man(or luckiest depending on your view) in the world after surviving a train crash ,a plane crash and a car crash.
Slake was born in Croatia in 1929.
He lived a normal life as a music teacher until a train journey in 1962 set off an unbelievable chain of events.
While riding a train from Sarajevo to Dubrovnik, a freak accident saw his train catapulted into a river.
Seventeen passengers were killed but Selak was able to swim to the shore with a broken arm and hypothermia.
This accident was just a tip of the iceberg to what was headed for him.
The following year, Selak was flying from Zagreg to Rijeka.
Suddenly, a door become detached from the plane twhich causes it to crash .
This time, 19 people were killed but our Superman, Selak,was reportedly found in a haystack unhurt.
It seems Selak offended transportation as he yet had another fatal accident while on the road.In 1966, the unlucky man was again in an accident as the bus he was boarding plunged into a river.
There were 4 casualties but the Superman yet again escaped unhurt.
In 1970,he was again involved in a freak accident as his car’s fuel tank suddenly exploded on the motorway.
He barely escaped unhurt yet again.
In 1973,he was again involved in a car accident as a malfunctioning fuel pump leaked fuel on his car causing it to catch on fire with him in it.
A couple decades later, he was knocked down by a bus in Zagreb.
The following year came the Superman’s 7th and final famous disaster -A truck came towards him as he drove on a mountain road.
This event ended with Selak leaping fire and watching in horror as his car exploded.
That’s the story of Selak the unluckiest man in the world who was involved in numerous disasters or Selak, the luckiest man who survived all these disasters, depending on your view.
