I heard about that story too man. That's literally one of the most either incredibly lucky or unlucky, as you said, thing ever
There was also a guy who's been called the luckiest man in the world for surviving tragedies. He was on a plane, went in back to flirt with a flight attendant, and either he fell or leaned back onto the door, and fell out. Only to land in a haystack and be largely unscathed. And IIRC not long after he fell, the plane crashed, and he was better off than they were. Then he was on either a bus or train that fell into a river. He was one of the few to survive not just not drowning, but not dying of hypothermia.
I'd say it's unclear if he's incredibly lucky or unlucky yet somehow survives, except the third major thing to happen to him was.....he won the lottery.
The show I watched it on(URBAN LEGENDS, which looked at, well, urban legends and you had to guess which were true and which were false) was sly and made it seem like he was gonna be hit by a bus before it moved to his other side and he shouted in joy finding out he won.
