If you survive some situation where you would have otherwise did were it not for some miracle of God then your entire life after that point is said to be borrowed time.
A man walks across a street without looking both ways when he accidently steps on a bottle, that happened to be rolling by, and falls straight down. Exactly half a speeding truck passes in front of him, only missing by inches. This man is living on borrowed time because if it hadn't been for the bottle rolling by at that exact moment he would have been smashed like a caterpillar eating your grandmas favorite rose bush.

Literally, when you're in the military and you're going away on a mission that doesn't involve signifigant risk of life, e.g. deployed to Germany as opposed to Iraq, but you make it should like you're going to die.
In general, making an impending non-threatening situation sound like you're risking life and limb.
