First of all, I cannot understand are afraid of heights ... I LOVE heights! Give me a tree and I'm half way up before you blink, highropes are soooo fun ... and spiders. I poke them with sticks. I mean, sure if they jump at you or surprise you, but otherwise I think they're funny. And snakes are the most beautiful animals I've ever seen.

anyway... I suppose I'm scared of anything I cannot physically bash up (well, I have never had to except with my brother but as long as the possiblity is there I'm fine with it) if it hurts me. I really, really am a complete wuss around anything like that.

And murderers. I have this thing where I think someone's going to sneak into my room at night and kill me. I refuse to sleep facing the wall next to my bed because of this. I must always sleep where if I wake up, I will instantly see everything in the room.

And ... being underground. I suppose this one comes with my love of heights ... when I can't see the sky (buildings are Ok, just not caves and overhangs) I freak out. I'll leap over rocks and never slip, but walk into a cave and I start to sweat. *shudders* But it's not enclosed spaces that I hate ... just the thought of all that rock and dirt above me that I can't control. Hey! It's knid of like the fear of not being in the possition of saving myself thing! Only just realised that ...

I never realized how long i've had my fear of heights, a tale from when I was about 3: Some guy i've never heard of before, was holding me, and chucked me up in the air slightly, and it terrified me, and I got really angry and tried to hit him.

I remember none of that though.

From what am I afraid....I love water. Vast, wonderful, to dive inside and never go out. I love diving. But for some reason when I see the sea or lake from a distance I start to feel strange. Reptiles? Hahaha I love reptiles. Snakes, lizards all teh sorts. But the one thing im afraid the most is losing my mind....

Wax models...the really realistic ones, like in madame tussauds in London.

Heights, im petrified of them.

spiders, kind of.

I hate oceans...they are sooooooooo big and just there, I guess it might be the thought of dying slowly, but thats just my demented mind.

I also can't eat if it is too loud, thats off topic, but yea...

I'm scared of drowning, I hate the thought of just not being able to breathe and your lungs filling up with water...

i hate oceans just the thought of swimming with sharks, and other large animals it's a scary place to die

You would be even more scared if it happened to you, it is scary because you're unable to keep your self on top of the water, to not go underneath..

NEVER try to save someone who is heavier or just a bit lighter than you, because you could end up drowning as well.. >.<
