I cant believe i did it...

First off, I'll like to say hi. (Long time reader, first time poster) And sry if this is the wrong place for this. This is a story i just had to share, and it happened no more then 20 minutes ago.
So, I've been trying for King Krush on my Blood Elf hunter for a while, hadnt had any luck, and only saw him 2 times as pets before now, once in a BG, and in Dalaran. After doing some questing on my dk on Cenarius, i decided to log to my other server to check for King Krush, doubting he would be up. So, im flying past his spawn points, and get the the on by the wasps. Its at that point i remember that my NPCScan wouldnt let me know if hes close, sence i saw him acouple days ago in Dala, so i switched to track beast. Im looking through the red dots on my mini-map, and pass over one that looked shorted then the other names, and i thought i saw 'King' as the first part of the name.
Im thinking 'No way, it cant be' but, it is, King Krush was there. As quickly as my fingers let me, i open my friends list, and see that my 2 priest friends are in ICC. I check /who, whisper the only priest in the zone, and asked if they could help me with something, but they were loging. Dang it, what was i to do? I follow King Krush for alittle, debating rather or not to try and solo tame him. Part of me didnt want to, i mean, i didnt have much haste gear, didnt have any haste potions, or anything i've read other people using to help with the tame. But i tell myself 'Whats the chances i'll ever find him again?' so i attempt it, and decided that im going to keep trying untill he's mine, or dead.
So, my tame attempts start. First couple of attempts fail, and i messed up on acouple other attempts, abandoning my pet before hiting BW. Im about the heal up after my 5th attempt, and i see my bed room light flicker. Dang! Must of been a power serge, my internet goes out. I wait 3 minutes for my internet to come back on, not knowing rather or not King Krush would still be there. When i finaly do get back on, he's there, alive and well. Quickly i check /who again, and still no priest, with my friends still in ICC. I try again for a solo tame, and get my closest attempt, 2 seconds left on the tame when he killed me. I try 2 more time without much luck. Im starting to lose hope when my friend whispers me and tells me they're almost done, just going to kill one more boss. I decided to give it one last attempt before waiting for my friend. So, i send in my temp pet, get ready to hit abandon, and BW. He fears my pet, i hit BW then abandon, and start taming. King Krush charges me. 12 seconds later, my tames down to 6 seconds, and im 2 hits from dead. King krush misses one attack, and im down to 4 seconds. 2 seconds, he hits me. Im watching my health, and my tame timer, it reaches 0, he killed me. I thought i had failed, but he dissaper's.
As fast as my game would let me, i ran back to my corpse, and the second i ress, i call pet, and there, standing next to me, is King Krush. I couldnt believe it, i got him. I was barely prepared, had only 144 haste rating, and barely over 21k hp, yet i was able to tame King Krush without the help of a priest.
I guess this goes to show you, even if your not really prepared, you can do it, you just have to have faith. (And sry for any spelling mistakes)
PS. Ok, i just barely got him, and it was probably just luck, but still, i got him.
