Default Final Destination comes true

Woman Killed Days After Avoiding Air Tragedy

1:52pm UK, Thursday June 11, 2009
An Italian woman has been killed in a car crash only days after she narrowly avoided being a victim of the Air France plane crash.


Johanna Ganthaler missed the Air France flight which crashed into the Atlantic
Johanna Ganthaler and her husband Kurt were on holiday in Brazil and were supposed to take Air France flight 447 back to Paris.
But they missed the doomed flight and decided to take a different flight home to Europe instead.
All 228 people onboard the Air France flight were killed when it crashed in the Atlantic.
But the two pensioners had barely managed to digest the terrible tragedy they had managed to avoid when they involved in a car accident.
Their vehicle crashed after veering across a road in Kufstein, Austria, according to the Italian news agency ANSA.
The car swerved into an oncoming truck and Mrs Ganthaler was killed.
Her husband was seriously injured.
Mrs Ganthaler was from the Italian province of Bolzano-Bozen.

these things are bound to happen but i think it's just being sensationalised for the media. just a simple case of unfortunate coincidence like the film & nothing more

Much like that girl who survived Columbine only to get gunned down at VA Tech.

Obviously. Death doesn't have a master plan and is going to go after you cause he missed you the first time.
It's just intriguing.

While we are on the topic, i just read about Seth MacFarlane missing the Flight 11 plane, by only a few minutes, the one that crashed into the trade center. That's crazy.

Every minute past the time that flight crashed was free time for her

Reminds me of the show "Dead Like Me" that ran on Showtime

but definite case of "un-lucky lottery"

That's pretty insane, even the school shooting ones, poor people.

To provide the first ******* remark of the thread, "perhaps this is viral marketing for The Final Destination coming out later this year..."
