Shawn Ryan Shouldn’t Be Alive...😳
Shawn Ryan describes a near-fatal suicide attempt over a decade ago where he blacked out, climbed into his running car in the garage, and nearly died when the gas tank melted and began dripping fire onto the exhaust. He woke to discover the dangerous situation and questions whether divine intervention saved his life.
Summary
Shawn Ryan recounts a traumatic incident from over a decade ago involving a suicide attempt while severely intoxicated. After drinking heavily and blacking out, he somehow ended up in his garage with his car running, though he has no memory of how he got there or his actions. When he woke the following morning, he noticed his entire townhome reeked of gasoline. Investigating further, he found his pistol on the couch—a gun he doesn't normally carry daily. Upon going to the garage, he discovered his Audi with the seat reclined and the engine still running. The extreme heat had caused the gas tank to melt, with gasoline dripping onto the hot exhaust muffler and igniting. Ryan expresses shock at having survived this extremely dangerous situation, noting that opening the garage door at that moment could have caused an explosion from fresh oxygen rushing in. He then poses the question to an unnamed interviewer about whether a guardian angel or God intervened to save his life, with the interviewer beginning to respond affirmatively.
