bigger than a penny. that show up when you least expect them lol.
i'm fine if i spot them first but not when they spring on me out the blue. or i put a pair of jeans on and one runs down my leg. ugh!

[Polygon]

It depends on where in the world I am.

Those Kangaroo's will get ya if your not careful....

[Sazzy77GTO]

Any kind of spider to me, ther is just something wrong with them.

Although I did put cute and spider in the same sentance the other day when I found this teddy from the My Blue Nose Friends range which was a spider called Webster, proper cute little thing.

I cant stand cockroaches.

I also have a phobia of moths. I had a Miller moth land on my face when I was about 6. The moth was as big as my hand, and such was squished by hand, on face. If I try really hard I can bare them, but unsuspectingly is like dodging bullets.

[VR-4 0wnz j00]

Its funny, bugs dont bother for the most part but I cant stand roaches. Im not afraid but they disgust me. Luckily, my dog loves eating them :D

[Echo419]

Sharks(big ones)
Needles
and aliens in that order.

[GTOX]

Large fast moving spiders.

Cockroaches don't scare me but they disgust me as well, they smell awful when squashed (not recommended).

The general population/modern society scares me the most...

[spraynpray]

i have a huge phobia of spiders. mainly due to when i was a kid my brother and i watched a movie with spiders attacking people and shit so when we went to bed later on he was on the top bunk with some string and shit fucking with me making me think there was spiders all around me. So needless to say now if i find a spider in a room (depending on size), then that bitch just got its own room.

[ictponder]

This guy! When he starts chasing me I can almost feel him behind me while I run screaming like a little girl! And it's always when I get stuck with no ammo.

Lamas! :rant:
When I was a kid the neighbor had one that was MEAN!
He trampled me in the field one day. If it hadn't been for my buddy going after him with a bat he would have hurt me bad.
To this day I can't understand why they put them in petting zoos. There's nothing sweet about them at all.

Bodies of water that I can't see the bottom. Even worse, being stuck in a canoe in one of said bodies of water...hellllll no.

that .... terrifies me

[dbest671]

I not "scared" of roaches, but I will run from them if chased. Don't mess with the Florida roaches.
Sharks depending on what body of water I happen to be floating on.
Being broken down in the middle of nowhere with no cell phone reception.
Sky diving, only because I might defecate on myself.
Spun bearing which I believe is a fear shared by all that own a 3S

[Austin@STM]

K Im scared of that lol. But seriously, got to be not finding the perfect girl. :/.
I actually like spiders....I used to work at a golf course watering the course all night. I must have driven through millions of spider webs while in a golf cart. Feels nice on the skin :).

Other stuff doesnt really bother me. Even though I am rather allergic to bees. Just leave them alone and they leave you alone. :)

[93STLTH]

I'd have to say snakes. You just can't trust them. Even the non poisonous ones will bite you if they feel like it. That said, I once touched a wild rattlesnake on it's back when I had a moment of ball growth. It picked it's head up and was ready to bite almost quicker than I could pull away.

I'm a scaffolder... And I'm deathly terrified of heights! I guess that's why I'm so good at it because I can jump around the scaffold with my main focus being not to fall.

This reminds me of a particular odd incident. The first and only time I've ever gotten vertigo in the water:

I was on vacation many years ago and a bunch of us were camping on a remote, uninhabited island in the South China Sea (I've since heard there may be a resort on it now). Anyway, we were having a blast being beach bums and snorkeling and scuba diving around various parts of the island. We took the boat round the back of the island and went swimming/snorkeling/scuba diving off the boat because there was no beach on this side f the island, it was just a rock wall/cliff.

Anyway, the water was crystal clear and it was in the afternoon so the sun shining down provided for some incredible visibility in the water. The depth of the water out from the rock wall was about 8 feet. My brother and I swam a little further out from the rock wall and that's when the vertigo hit me. About 30 feet out from the rock wall, the bottom just dropped away. It looked like a rock cliff that dropped away at about an 85 degree angle and because of the clarity of the water and the sun shining down into it, we could see the underwater cliff literally drop away down over 80+ feet before it got too dark to be able to see anything. Even though I was fully cognizant of the fact that I was floating, I felt like I was about to drop into the dark abyss over the edge of that cliff.

Then while swimming back to the boat, we had another nice scare. The South China Sea happens to have sharks (and we saw a couple of tiger sharks while swimming in a different sheltered cove. As we were swimming back to the boat, we swam over another drop and about 20-30 feet down, we saw two 'fish' shapes. Both of them were bigger than either of us (they looked to be about 5-6 feet long, but thicker). We got to the boat as fast as we could without making any splashing sounds. As it turns out, a couple of guys on the trip who had brought spearfishing gear checked them out and found out that they were groupers. Not particularly dangerous to humans (they don't hunt humans) unless they mistook your leg for a fish and took a grip on it and swam down to the murky depths.

LOL, now if I can ride my 4-wheeler through it that's a different story. I mean like ponds, lakes, ocean...not interested in getting in them. I'll just sit on the edge and drink beer and watch. :D

I don't even get in pools, not scared of a pool, I'm just not into swimming(though I can swim very well). Hell my parents had an in-ground while I was growing up. I could count on my hands how many times I ever got in it. *shrug*

Max, that sounds crazy scary, wow. :scared:

Jeremy

[GTO Assassin]

Yeah, heights worry me a little, and I have also struggled with deep water when I went snorkling a few years back.

[gltasn]

you forgot bedbugs. i travel from ak few times a year and am paranoid as hell ill bring them back. earwigs also freak me out with a case of the willies. i use my grandmas basement door for a midnight smoke break and the earwigs drop from the door crevase when you open it. then i have to pass the nasty, hairy, wolf spider that lives in her wood pile. he's always there but, in diff spots. deff. not scared of me stepping over him at all. im glad we have no venomous spiders in ak or snakes.

I haven't had to deal with bedbugs or earwigs for a long long time. We are a pretty clean race here in Australia. :p

Spun bearings and sheered shafts are considered hobbies in the 3/S world, hence the reason they are not on the list. :)

[ferriolom]

Spiders FTL. I'm not scared of heights as much as I get the urge to jump off whatever I'm on that's high up... and THAT scares me

Also I don't know why I'm scared of spiders. It's an irrational fear. I just do not like them. They have too many legs maybe? No cause centipedes don't bother me...

[93STLTH]

Went for a jog on the trails near my house, and as I was coming off the trails, I see a large tarantula (about the size of a cam pulley) on the path ahead of me. I stopped to watch him and he just walked right up to me and stopped about a foot from my feet. I didn't want him to get stepped on or run over by a mountain biker, so I used a stick to guide him off the path. He never got upset or made any kind of threatening moves, he just moved off the path in into the woods. I would never do that with a rattler. Even if I was just trying to help him, he'd still try to bite me.

[kjzstealth]

The only thing that really scares me that I can think of is something hurting a member of my family. I have rappelled so heights dont bother me. I have been bitten by a snake, but got antivenom in time. Bugs disgust me but not afraid of any. Just cant think of anything scarier than something happening to my family that I cant stop.

Lol I just love saying that word, Spetsnaz. Ever since that episode of Wildboyz where Johnny Knoxville gets Spartan kicked while running at full speed from a Spetsnaz soldier I have known they are pure badasses.

They just look pure badass too.

[Quick VR-4]

Why the hell is "Bats" not an option.

Found one on my wall in the garage and tried to use a broom to get it out. As soon as I touched it, that thing went from a small mouse like creature to a teradactile with an 3 foot wing span. Ran upstairs to tell my wife I just discovered I have a phobia of bats that I never knew I had. She calls my neighbor to come over making fun of me. He stops by laughing at me and the next thing I know we are both huddled behind my car fearing for our lives. I remember staring at him saying, "shits not so funny now is it". Luckily he left on his own before he could carry us away to devour us at his layer.

Yea buddy I think so.
They said he would be lucky to make it 5 years and ten wasn't possible.
In August he made it past 11.

He said today he's not ready to die and I think he beleives we all depend on him so much he can't leave us...which is true.
He is the glue that holdes this family together.

I hope you have many more fun years with him.
