A man who narrowly missed twin bomb blasts while running the Boston Marathon barely avoided disaster again two days later when he was rocked by the explosion at a West, Texas, fertilizer plant.

Joe Berti, 43, could be considered the unluckiest man in the world for being so close to both horrific disasters.

Instead, he feels fortunate that he escaped from both tragedies unscathed.

I dunno about that.  Stay on the flight but ask to sit next to him.

Yeah, if I were the security director for an Las Vegas casino, I'd have his picture distributed to ny staff, with directions to not let the guy in--with his luck, he'd clean the place out.
