panicked and said, everybody pull out now, there's another bomb. i think the next part was the hardest part, and that's when i was alone and i was waiting for a second bomb. that was the hardest part. you know, the whole thing, you hear other people talk about life flashing before their eyes when they're at death. you're thinking about your family and your friends and eternity. you're thinking about other things. and so i just prayed, and i don't know how much time passed, but i heard voices coming back to me again. and so then they began the tedious work of uncovering me. when they pulled me out, they said, we're going to pull and it's going to hurt. and they did. they counted to three and they pulled. it hurt so bad, and it was the best feeling i felt all day. i remember looking around and it looked like a war zone. but i'll never forget what it felt like to breathe in that first breath of fresh air.
