Did anyone run from a hit and live? Sure, plenty.

Valachi was invited to a house where he noticed one of the men went to the bathroom and came back out with a bulge. He took off.

Al D'Arco of the Lucchese's was probably at a hotel when he noticed one man was wearing a bullet proof vest and one stepped in to the bathroom. Al D'Arco said that whoever went into the bathroom next was going to retrieve a planted gun and come out blasting. Al took off. He left town and contacted the FBI in a different city for fear that the NY FBI office was on Amuso and Casso's payroll.

Hitman John Veasey was actually shot clean through the head with a 22. I guess the guy was so dumb that there wasn't enough brains in his skull for the bullet to hit and wound him. He got up, fought back, and got the heck out of there.

I am sure there are more.
