John Travolta - Forced to Make Emergency Landing - PIC

quote-picThe actor, who was jetting back to the US after promoting his new movie WILD HOGS in Germany, landed safely at Shannon Airport after his Boeing 707 suffered “technical difficulties” mid-flight. He was said to be unhurt but shaken by the dramatic incident. Nevertheless, the 53-year-old hired another plane and completed the journey, while his jet was grounded for repairs.

A source reveals, “If he hadn’t made it to Shannon, it could have been the end of him. You could tell that he was very relieved.”

A spokesman for Shannon Airport confirms, “John Travolta was diverted to Shannon due to technical difficulties.”

If he ‘nearly’ escapes death, then he died. If he ‘narrowly’ escapes death, then he lived.

Why isn’t anyone else with a working knowledge of the English language realizing that this statement means he died???
example: He nearly escaped.
meaning: he almost escaped but didn’t.
Meaning he almost escaped death but died.
