He was traveling on a train from Sarajevo to Dubrovnik. Due to a fault on the tracks during the journey, the train derailed and flew into the frozen lake. 17 passengers died. Passengers died in the accident or on the sinking train. Frane, on the other hand, only broke her arm and managed to swim to shore. This accident was the beginning of misfortunes.<\/div>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"8276300176\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-1963-Plane-Crash\"><\/span>2) 1963 Plane Crash<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/images\/post\/user-5\/gy1bly.png\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Just a year after the train crash, he must have been frightened by the train, as he was on a small plane to Rijeka, a city in Croatia. While the plane was in the air, both engines stopped, cabin pressure dropped and the plane started to lose altitude. You may think that there is no escape from this. Frane&#8217;s bad luck kicked in. A faulty door opened during the fall. A poor passenger jumped out the door. That person, of course, was Frane. Frane, who fell from the plane without his parachute, was sure that he would die this time. The plane crashed on a hill and most of the passengers died. Frane fell on a pile of straw and escaped with minor abrasions.<\/div>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"8276300176\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-1965-Bus-Crash\"><\/span>3) 1965 Bus Crash<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/images\/post\/user-5\/y1u78t.png\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Traveling by bus in 1965, the wheels slipped on the ice and flew off the bridge into the valley below. 4 passengers died, Frane survived again as usual.<\/div>\n<p><amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"5405056807\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width=\"\"><\/p>\n<div overflow=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-1970-Car-Crash\"><\/span>4) 1970 Car Crash<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/images\/post\/user-5\/ouec00.png\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Now afraid of all public transport, Frane started to travel in her own car.
