People Who Luck Follows in Life

Sometimes life brings pleasant surprises. Some people are so lucky that it is impossible to believe that these events were an accident. Someone seems to have planned it all out on purpose, down to the last detail. Here are the top 10 luckiest people on the planet. Looks like they were born with the shirt on.

Lena Paulsson

Lena Paulsson was quietly harvesting her garden when she saw a shiny object in the patch. It turned out to be an engagement ring lost 16 years ago. A carrot sprouted through the jewel. Miraculously, the object rose from the ground and was spotted by the landlady.

Steve Fleig

Steve grew up without a mother. All his life, the young man had hoped to find her. But he gave the wrong surname on his search card. Thanks to a stroke of luck, the young man managed to fulfil his dream. Working at a local supermarket, he mentioned his problem to his boss. It turned out that the boss knew his mother, and told him that she was working in another shop nearby.

Virginia Fike

Virginia had been playing the lottery all her conscious life. She used a certain set of numbers as a combination. In 2012, the woman mistakenly filled in two receipts. Surprisingly, each one turned out to be a winner, bringing in a million euros each.

Tsutomu Yamaguchi

This is the only man in the world to have survived two nuclear bombings. The man is a survivor. In Hiroshima he was three kilometres from the epicentre of the bombing. Once in hospital, Tsutomu spent several days there and went to Nagasaki to work. Soon after his arrival, the village was bombed by the atomic bomb.

Harrison Oken

Harrison was working as a cook on one of the ships. The man failed to react in time during the wreck and sank with the ship. The poor guy was lucky to be in the engine room. Here an air sac was formed, in which Oken remained for 3 days until the rescue team arrived.

Joan Ginter

The girl bought her first lottery ticket and immediately won €5.4 million. Interesting fact: 10 years later, she hit the €2 million lotto jackpot. Three years later, luck smiled on Joan again – she became the winner of $3 million. In 2008, Ginther won a jackpot of 10 million euros. She can be considered the luckiest person in the world.

Juliane Koepke

In 1971, the plane on which the 17-year-old was flying crashed. None of the passengers survived, but Juliana suffered a broken collarbone and abrasions. After the crash, she was left in the jungle for several days until she was found by local foresters.

Maarten de Jong

The professional cyclist had booked two tickets for the Malaysian Boeing. One plane was subsequently shot down over Ukraine and the other crashed over the Indian Ocean. Maarten cancelled both times hours before the flight.

Reshma Begum

Reshma was working in the garment shop at Rana Plaza. After the building collapsed, she was trapped under the rubble. The girl managed to survive for 17 days before rescuers reached her. A modest supply of food and water, which she found under the rubble, helped her survive.

Frano Selak

A Croatian music teacher was travelling on a train. The locomotive suddenly derailed and the carriages rolled into a lake. This was not Frano’s only instance of luck. He later fell out of a plane in a plane crash. Miraculously, Selak landed on a haystack, suffering bruises. The man was involved in multiple car accidents, but emerged unscathed on each occasion.

As you can see, some people are truly lucky. Where the chances of survival were close to zero, they managed to cheat death, find lost things (relatives) or hit the jackpot on several occasions.
