“If I ever had to run for my life, I would probably die” is a jocular statement made by an out-of-shape person that has been printed on many gift items, such as T-shirts, hats and posters. The saying has been cited on Twitter since June 29, 2011.

“If I ever had to run for my life, I would probably die” was possibly coined on this ecard.

After trying to escape a rain shower, I am convinced that if I ever had to run for my life, I would probably die.

New design from my favourite company:

IF I EVER HAD TO RUN FOR MY LIFE I WOULD PROBABLY DIE

Now if they could amend that to IF EVER I HAD… I’d be more comfortable wearing it.

Just me?
