"I need to quit texting because I could die in a car accident."

Chance Bothe, a 21-year-old college student, was headed home when he texted a prophetic message: I need to quit texting because I could die in a car accident.

Seconds later, Bothe plunged off a bridge, then a cliff and ended up in a deep ravine.

Bothe’s father said his son suffered a broken neck, a crushed face, a fractured skull and traumatic brain injuries.
“I said, ‘Call the funeral home. He’ll never make it,’” said Bobby Bothe, Chance’s father. “We lost him three times. They brought him back. He coded three times.”
Six months later, Bothe has recovered about 80 percent. He talked with KHOU-TV’s Kevin Reece on his last day of rehab. That’s where he learned to talk and walk again.
“Yeah, I was text messaging on the phone, flew right off the road,” said Bothe. “I’m very lucky that I’m not gone forever. That I still have things to do on this world.”
