KTN journalist Dennis Onsarigo is currently in hospital after surviving a near death accident with a truck.

The investigative TV journalist who was cycling on Saturday evening said the truck would have crushed him.

What happened was "a truck left the main road on to my path wanting to overlap

I decide let me outpace it because it will leave dust on me.. step on the peddle, look over my shoulder and the truck has now increased pace; step on the pedal again and the truck driver impatient now honks... glancing back for a third time...The truck is literally inches of “breathing” from me.. I turn my head before I can leave the bicycle path, I lose control of the beast...push over, I land head first - thank God I had a helmet...

Dennis added,"... then my shoulder, the landing force tosses me just a yard from the truck

Screams from other motorists, the screeching slamming on brakes and now lost in dust, I can hear my own breathing...I try lifting myself up, I can’t. A sharp pain on my collar bone, tells me I have fractured something."

Dennis Onsarigo continued, "As I was wheeled into the operating room for a six hour operation it hit me; life is short .. when the surgeons dimmed the lights out of my life, I had died for six hours... what if I never returned? Lucky to be alive; time I figured what this accident means."

He could not believe it. He added, "I survived a truck crashing me.. it was a touching distance from where I lay."

The media personality is celebrating the providence of the most high.

"The previous night a colleague had told me not to go riding after I told them I wasn’t sure about riding on that road... that morning, I bought a new helmet and said a prayer .. something I rarely do when going biking."
