from di Maria's family being held hostage to another player disappearing these are the scariest moments in football history and first the time one of the nicest players in football history became the most hated is H from behind by son his foot has turned completely the other way son himself could upset by it in an awful awful injury for Andre Gomez man you could tell son had no intentions of hurting Gomez and he just couldn't hold back his emotions damn but what happened to Chelsea's John Terry had the whole football World in shock cuz his scariest
moment came after he nearly lost his life on the 27th of February 2007 Arsenal and Chelsea were facing each other in the League Cup Final and in the 56th minute Abu diabi would accidentally do something deadly John's here they haven't cleared it on the kick made him swallow his tongue which basically made impossible for Terry to breathe fortunately though medical assistance was quick to help him out and he was given an okay to leave the hospital just a day later at least there were people there that helped Terry out but what if I told you
another player's scariest moment was him surrounded by men with knives see it all started when former Arsenal star Mees uril and sad kassak were eating lunch before their preseason tour and with them they not only had watches worth up to 200k they were also driving a $160,000 G wagon so when illan is wife got into the car kosak was completely alone as an easy target that's when two criminals jumped him me yeah Kass really put his own life at risk just to protect his friend and his wife and honestly that's something that would have him
respected by everyone unlike this next one cuz what if I told you that one of the goats was close to losing his life see ever since Cristiano Ronaldo joined Manchester United back in 200 eight he had a thing for Fast Cars and after just 6 years in professional football he had cars worth up to $3 million but on the eth of January 2009 Ronaldo woke up to multiple texts from coaches and teammates asking him about his whereabouts yeah Ronaldo had overslept so he quickly got dressed and started driving to the training center all of a
sudden this happened Cristiano lost control of his car and the thing hit the wall so hard it was pretty much under recognizable it looks like a crash scene from an action movie and is reminiscent of the images in Paris where Princess Diana lost her life but this C belongs to perhaps the best known footballer in the world Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo this after he crashed into a metal barrier in a tunnel near Manchester Airport at around 10:00 this morning and the fact that Ronaldo got away without a single scratch is a damn Miracle but to
be honest Ronaldo was lucky he controlled his own destiny cuz another football player had zero control control over what happened see when Tom Locker retired at the prime of his career it left a lot of football fans confused I mean the dude was only 29 and playing in the Premier League but on the 5th of June 2023 during a playoff championship final things would take a wild turn see Tom was starting in the Midfield just like usual but in the earlier minutes of the game Tom's heart would slowly start to beat out of rhythm and
in the eighth minute his body couldn't take it anymore yeah Tom was seconds away from dying but fortunately the Medics made it just in time to save his life first and foremost how are you no I'm doing well yeah no thanks for asking it's um been a been a mad week or so um but yeah I've uh I've had the all clear yesterday and um I'm all good moving forward so with Tom getting the all clear he was ready to get back on the field and give luten fans his all but that would turn out
to be his biggest mistake cuz on the 15th of December 2023 in a Premier League game versus Bournemouth things would get even worse we're not showing the agonizing moment luton's Captain collapsed after 59 minutes Luton and Bournemouth Players called for help Medics rushed on to treat the 29-year-old as fans from both teams watched on in anguish at bourma Vitality stadium and it's one of those situations where we all just hope for the best they chanted the Welsh defender's name and applaud did as he was carried off yeah this was not your average heart attack Tom
lock here was dead for 2 minutes and 40 seconds before being brought back so doctors had no other options but to install a device that would always monitor Tom's heart rate in case something like this would ever happen again so my defib sits in there as you can see it's um and then there's a wire that runs across here and then up to the heart in case it ever needs to go off um yeah so that's constantly monitoring in my heart rate and if it goes outside certain parameters it it's designed to give me a
shock I mean you got to respect t for giving football Second Chance even after almost losing his life the first time man Tom lock here is really a champion in every football Fan's heart but another player refused to retire see pek's life was about to change completely so I don't really remember Czech was playing his second season with the blues and coming off in historic season he wanted to continue his crazy form I mean it's never been a secret that check's one of the greatest goalkeepers in football history but what if I told you he
could have been even better see on the 14th of October 2006 pet would almost lose his life and P Che having to come out quickly I think he took a a little bit of a knock there from Steve hunt who's probably a little eager to make his point in his first Premiership start after the incident Chuck was forced to stay in the hospital for multiple days the honest thing is that I kept losing memory so basically I woke up everybody explained to me what happened in 15 minutes I couldn't keep up anymore so I fell
asleep again woke up couldn't remember anything and I I this the part I remember you know this the first time just before my memory came back yeah I remember being like it's an absurd I you know if if it's something you've never lived yeah and you never never experience you would never really feel that but I you know imagine you were on the on the bed in the hospital and the doctor keeps coming and ask you your name people around the the day the month the year which country you are and it's something you know
is the exact the easiest question all your life you knew the answer and suddenly he ask you and you go um uh like the simplest question and you couldn't answer I couldn't answer I I didn't know I just couldn't recall anything now coming back from a head injury that was close to ending your life really took a toll on check so Chelsea the Premier League in doctors had to come up with some sort of protection for him to be able to play football in the end though he kept playing for another 13 years winning multiple
premier league and Champions League titles but not every scary moment involves players like the time fans almost died in the stands right after Leo scored a goal against Omnia the league one game back in 2017 the supporters went crazy with her celebration but since there was only a small safety barrier holding them it eventually collapsed now some fans were lucky enough not to get any injuries but out of the 29 fans that were hurt five of them were seriously hurt thankfully everyone survived but this next scary moment had a player's family held hostage see it
all started when criminals in Paris started tracking every move Di Maria would make and considering the cars he would drive he would be easily recognizable on the street after following him home after practice the criminals learned his address and how many people were in the house now all that was left was waiting for PSG to play a game where D Maria would be featured and on the 14th of March 2021 the masked criminals would pull up the D Maria's driveway and start pointing guns at his wife and kids and demand everything news quickly started breaking
out and then sporting director Leonardo quickly informed the manager who subbed Di Maria off however the criminals managed to flee the scene with $500,000 before he came home with security eventually police arrested four guys who were all sent the prison but having your family held hostage against punks is one thing another football player died for 78 minutes see in the middle of a game between the Bolton Wanderers in Tottenham hot spurs in 2012 fabr mua was seen falling on the field without being able to move to be in some distress as well fa muber fio
Keen to turn him on his side Medics spent six minutes trying to resuscitate him on the field but with no luck that's when one fan in the stand knew he had to step in the SA mua's life as soon as I saw them start the CPR Sonic sort of twitched in me um I turned to my brother and said they're doing CPR I should go and help and my brother said yeah go and help muo was quickly rushed to intensive care where he would be fighting for his life I'm here and you're in front of
me if I get to look at you but I'm seeing two version of you oh so there's you there there's another you there yeah so if I get to look at you there's you there there's another you there so I couldn't like go a little bit dizzy but once that intensive care doctors still weren't able to bring him back but after 78 minutes and 15 heart shocks Fabric's heart would finally start giving positive signs 75 minutes then I responded it but cuz I was out for so long I could have been I woke up and
I could not recognize any of them I could have sever the bur damage yeah and be in a vegetable stage stuff like that now thankfully muo was able to make a full recovery but at the age of 24 he had to make the painful decision of retiring from football I him to call can go back and play yeah that's the whole I wish we could I wish we could but you're doing your degree yes I assume that's all going totally inconceivable you know with the with the way medicine evolves and he's getting better and stronger
and I think he's extremely un I wouldn't risk it I wouldn't risk it even even he told me play no man honestly it's kind of crazy how one incident can change your life forever just like this next one cuz one player was is making his dream come true but instead disappeared from the planet me that was the last time ailano salah's friends and family would ever hear from him again see Cardiff City were looking to strengthen their attack they had found their man emilano Salah I mean dude was 190 cm long and could pretty much
finish anything so Cardiff did what any team would do and sign The Prodigy but little did they know it would turn out to be the biggest nightmare ever cuz on the 21st of January 2019 Salo was supposed to take off at 9:00 a.m. but for some weird reason his flight was delayed for 10 hours a new pilot was then assigned a 60-year-old part-time DJ with an expired license who was colorblind flying a plane at night while being color blind may not be your best move but at 7:06 p.m. the flight took off and shortly after
it went missing a rescue mission started right after the plane went missing with three planes five helicopters and two lifeboats but after 2 4 hours of searching there were no signs of life but salah's family refused to give up hope and with the football World coming together they helped salah's family raise enough money to hire a private search and rescue team and on the 3rd of February that team managed to find the plane at the bottom of the sea with one body recovered Amano Salah [Music] honestly just talking about this moment makes me super emotional
but this final moment isn't just the scariest moment in football history it's also one of the most heartbreaking moments this is Christian Erikson and what happened to him shocked the world of football Christian Ericson Christian Erikson and the Danish midfielder and after nearly dying on the pitch it just shows how secondary football becomes we are expecting a further update from the Federation and from UEFA anytime now on the 12th of June 2021 Denmark was playing Finland in the Euro 2021 and in the 42nd minute disaster struck plays knew straight away that was a heavy fall
yeah Erikson collapsed and thousands of people around the stadium had no idea what to do but Denmark's Captain knew exactly what needed to be done he rushed to Erikson to put him in the correct position and cleared his Airways and prevented Ericson from swallowing his own tongue yeah Simon care was a hero but the job was not finished Ericson needed emergency CPR treatment on the field for 13 minutes yeah what should I say he was he was gone um and we did cardiac resuscitation um and there was Cardiac Arrest um how close were we I
I don't know um we uh we got him back uh after after one defp so so that's quite fast Christian Ericson was for a few seconds dead so now knowing all of this it's safe to say if it wasn't for Sean Care's quick thinking the medical staff's work Christian Erikson would not be here with us today I want to salute a man that really made a difference this year this man is a hero this is bigger than football this is bigger than us for me is the highlight of 2021 Simon care saved the life of
his partner Christian Erikson on the 12th of June this year ladies and gentlemen a round of applause for the Danish Captain with us tonight Mr Simon K now the craziest part in all of this just 45 minutes after the incident news started reporting that Christian Erikson was doing better that's when UFA showed they don't care about anything but business yeah just a few hours after seeing their teammate almost dying UAA forc Danish players to finish their Euro game against Finland but at least this moment didn't end with another player being forced into retirement cuz Christian
Erikson Against All Odds managed to make a comeback to professional football playing with a pacemaker I recognized what happened to me like later on in that night and the next few days of what was really going on and then of course all the test started all the knowledge started to come in and all the questions were being asked of this and that can I do this can I do that listen to the doctors yeah so also what I told them Sabrina said I'm selling this now I leave my boots but don't be certain if a
few days and uh I will probably change my mind if everything is okay and Luckily everything was uh after okay man this moment actually gave me goosebumps imagine almost losing your life to football and now you're back playing the sport you love again but all right let's lighten the mood back up cuz what if I told you that I once saw 10,000 fans running onto the pitch celebrating only for their team loose don't believe me well press this video I'll show you everything about it
