    Another one i'm scared of is are trains and heights. Don't get me wrong, I've been on plenty of trains and I've bungee jumped and I'd happily do a parachute jump right now...

    What I'm scared of is are my little twin brothers walking near the trainstation and a train goes by quickly etc, and going for a walk on a mountain and they're looking over the edge.

    Had a nightmare once about both hence why i'm scared of it I think.

    Alzheimers, Cancer and being paralized scare me a lot too.


    I had to watch both my grandfathers die from the first two within 2 weeks of each other 2 summers ago and it was probably the hardest thing i've ever had to deal with. I still think of them all the time. We literally had gotten back from England for the first funeral and got a call 2 days later that we had to go back.

    Drowning's not as bad as you think, cuz you pass out pretty quickly. Speaking from experience, it's the being revived part that sucks :)

    I'm lucky to be pretty fearless. "Type A" bulletproof and such.
    The only thing that really concerns me is the safety of my only son. Thankfully he's not the risk taker I am.

    Being trapped in a car underwater or on fire. The central locking broke on my car yesterday, all doors other than the drivers are deadlocked so I'm not using it until I drive it to the dealer on Monday for that exact reason.

    Same here. I really can't think of much that scares me these days. I feel like I've been through just about every awful/scary scenario already, so anything else would just be a repeat and I'd know how to handle it.

    I don't really ever see myself settling down and/or having kids, but if I ever did, I think the fear of being a single mother someday would worry me. That's a job I don't want. I guess I have a bit of a fear of failure, as well.

    Drowning isn't that bad. I nearly drowned in the ocean while saving someone else last year and I'll tell ya, it takes you quickly.

    Pretty much the same for me. Although I'm most worried about growing old, alone.

    Another great fear of mine, this is no joke, is that they ban petrol cars in 10-20 years. It's scary :(

    Making the same mistakes I made as a younger man. (I consciously opted out of a threesome(2 girls) during college). It made sense at the time, but now I wonder wtf I was thinking.
