This is a YouTube video titled "I Got SHOT, But My Ancestors SAVED Me!" containing a personal narrative recounting a traumatic experience of being shot during a robbery attempt. The speaker describes the incident, their survival, and a spiritual reflection on the event. The content is a monologue without multiple speakers.
When the accident happened, when I got shot, I'm not even gonna call it an accident, because it really wasn't. It was like, this crazy. You turn the corner and people are there with guns, and they're gonna rob whoever comes down the street next. We happen to be those people. And this was in the neighborhood my dad lives in still, that my aunt and uncle live in, where I should have been raised. And my aunt and uncle were driving me down the street. So it's not like I was in the wrong place that no one knew was dangerous. It was like, no. I was with locals of this neighborhood, and they had never seen something like this. When these guys were basically ready to kill or rob whoever was coming down the street, we just happened to be that car. And again, everything is perfect with quotes. And then this crazy thing happens where they shoot the car. We keep driving. I get hit in the back with heat. I didn't know what it was, but I was like, okay, it must be. I probably got shot. And at this moment when. When something like this happens to you, your adrenaline is fully rushing to the part that needs it in your body, and everything is in slow motion. And I just remember thinking, like, you say you're strong. Now's the time to prove it. And that was it. Like, I was basically conscious the entire time, never passed out. We pull up to a hospital. We, like, kind of lose them as we're driving away. Pull up to the hospital. There's glass everywhere because they shot through the windows, and we all had ducked. And my aunt, uncle, and cousin pile out of the car, checking to see if they got shot. They didn't get shot, thank God. And I'm sitting there in the middle of the car, and I look to the left where my head should have been, and I just see this gaping hole of where the first bullet came in. And I am, like, literally laughing like a crazy person, thinking, like, there has got to be some energetic force that protected me in this moment. And I literally felt my ancestors. It wasn't like. I'm not a religion person particularly. I'm a spiritual person where I believe in energy and everything like that. And I smiled because I was like, I'm still here. Like, I didn't die, so I'm gonna get out of this car, and we're gonna live the hell out of life. I walked myself to the hospital bed.
