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. :)
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.
LMAO! Must be a rugged life in your neck of the woods. Could you honestly see the bottom of a 3' mud hole full of water? :lol:Quote:

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.
