Let's talk about any strange fears you might have here. My strange fear is that I'm OK with looking down from tall buildings but I can't look up at them, I get so dizzy and feel uncomfortable :/
-
i hate wasps
-
I'm fine with being on really tall buildings but when I'm like 20ft off the ground I'm shaking. Also my friend is scared of moths.
-
I like all bugs, but dead bugs...the way they curl up when they die......hugugghhgughghgug
-
I hate spiders, like, I scream when I see one, it's not fun at school, but meh.
I don't like the dark either.
-
I'd say clowns, but that's not strange at all. My strange fear is colossal humanoid statues. Christ the Redeemer, Statue of Liberty, Any statue that's over 20 feet tall and in human shape. Can't be around them. Nope, don't know why, they just terrify me. Shadows of the Colossus was a horror game for me.
-
i have nyctophobia (intense fear of darkness) always had it, always will.
-
i hate wasps
Gah, Wasps. I hate those things.
As for me, two of mine has to be Taphophobia- an extreme fear of being buried alive, and Trypanophobia, an extreme fear of needles.

This IS NOT trolling.
-
Heights, but only when I feel the structure I am on is unstable. I can be 1500+ feet in the air inside a building or something, but I can't deal with even 10 feet while on a ladder.
Car accidents... I have driven a race car, and barrel-rolled it 5 times, but that didn't bother me at all. Race cars have a full roll cage and an aluminum racing seat with five-point harness. Plus the helmet, neckbrace and firesuit that is all mandatory... I am fine in a race car. A street vehicle is another story, completely. They scare the piss out of me. The fact that so many people drive like complete retards doesn't help.
-
I hate spiders, like, I scream when I see one
HAHAHA ....... I slept at the deer camp on the river saturday night and it was hot so I didn't put up my mosquito net and spiders crawled on me all night long.
I woke up one time and one was trying to crawl in my damn ear, then a grandaddy long leg crawled across my face. (yes, you can tell what it is even in the dark)
-
I used to scared of this screen that said "NO INPUT SIGNAL" in big red writing when my computer went off, but I was like 5 then.
-
I'm scared of frogs to the point where I scream.
When I was 4 I was scared of black people.
-
I'm afraid of those African body-mutilating techniques. I'm talking about things like neck rings (gives you a griaffe neck), anything to do with skewers, and oh god, gauged ears (google search if you dare) . I was on the train once and this white guy with gauged ears the size of shot glasses was sat near me. The whole time I was screaming in my head "YOU FREAK! YOU ****ING FREAK!!! WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT??? WHY??? YOU'RE SICK!!!!"

For me it was This one that I found ominous when I was younger. (http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/17900000/It-s-now-safe-to-turn-off-your-computer-random-17927884-640-400.jpg) Oh, and TV static in a dark room.
Anyway, for me? Dogs.

You'd love my friend, he's got 2 4cm tunnels! And I think he may have expanded them since I last saw him. He also has scaffolds and septum piercings. And to be honest I wouldn't be surprised if he had a Prince Albert.
-
I'm also to be scared of high celings and one of my friends is scared of Michael Jackson.
I know a guy who is sh*t scared of Spongebob Squarepants.
And another guy is terrifed of (get this) MLP.
-
Oh dear, where do I begin.
Fish, frogs, snakes, bugs, spiders and heights are probably the most intense ones right now.
-

This is really the only one I know of as yet.
-

What about my fears?
-
Bird Feathers and Blizzeta.
-
Small boats, mosquitoes, cathedrals.
-
Small boats, mosquitoes, cathedrals.
I can understand the first two, but Cathedrals?
You wouldn't like Lincoln, then ;D
-
I am afraid of entering RA2 DSL Tournaments. Even when I do enter I don't watch it.
-
Heights with the exception of Rollercoasters, suffocation, Sweat.
-

I just find them intimidating, they're like symbolism of scary religiony things.
-
The GOP.
I have normal fears like Spiders and Needles as well.
-
Spiders are awesome man!
-
Spiders
Reminds me of when I when I scared you by uploading that picture, actually ;)
-
I used to have a pretty bad fear of ascending and descending ladders. But, I spent the past two summers forcing myself to overcome that fear and now it's all good.
So, now... I fear nothing.
Bring it on! Heights. Bugs. Animals. Pop Music. I can take it. Grrrrrrrr.
-
Much like Goldenfox, I have a fear of being buried alive. I also have a fear of dying (Most common fear ever!) And a phobia of being in the middle of a dark street with the possibilty of getting assaulted (In my neighbourhood, theres dark streets and chavs everywhere, why I havent been jumped yet is beyond me)
-
I'm not scared of dying because I think whats on the other side is a better place
-
Boiling pots of water.
-
I'm not scared of dying because I think whats on the other side is a better place
Or the possibility of re-incarnation could be an alternative (Doubtful, but would like to see if it does work)
-
I actually really hate talking to strangers up front, on phone and so on. On the Internet I'm totally confident but I'm always slightly afraid of being too awkward which is naturally a bit of a vicious circle.
-
Mosquitoes and ticks-- I am convinced if you get bit by one you devolop a rash and you might even die from it.
-
inb4 black people
I have a pretty weird one called trypophobia, here's a link for all of you who haven't heard it. It's not an 'official' phobia as such but quite a few people do have it.

-
i'm afraid of going bald because i don't plan on ever cutting my hair short
-

Oh god, balding people with long hair.. Reminds me of my old pedophile construction teacher.
ANYONE who wants to spend 5 hours of his day in a small room with underage kids is not clean.

Yeah, I have that too.. I can handle ear piercings (I have one) and stuff like that but any other hole in the body that's not meant to be there... Ugh, my skin crawls and I feel sick. Not a nice feeling at all.
-
And clowns.
I bloody hate clowns.
-
I'm OK with looking down from tall buildings but I can't look up at them, I get so dizzy and feel uncomfortable :/
This.
I would say that I have Friggatriskaidekaphobia, or Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia, but that would just be silly.
Both of those are real fears, by the way.
-
Lets see... I have a fear of Bloody Mary, going into bathrooms at night, using the bathroom at school, Australian rednecks (which is hilarious because I'm considered to be half american-redneck)...
I also have a fear of losing an eye or people who've lost an eye or people who are losing an eye, getting impaled by my own clarinet and getting my fingernails/toenails ripped off.
And losing my Mr Happy, of course.
-

You don't. There, now you're cured.

Actually, Mosquitos can carry a disease that makes you die in your sleep.

Spiders. I am utterly scared of spiders. Not Urjak though. XD

Arachnophobia is one of the few fears which I completely don't understand :s
At least 50% of spiders out on the pull, or simply moving house, are killed by misguided people. It makes me sad.

boo hoo sob story spiders going extinct
seriously though, there's a spider for every fly born. They won't even be endangered by the time I'm 500 years old.
-
Although, most spiders who have venom lethal to humans can't bite through our skin...and nearly all of those that can bite through our skin don't have strong enough venom. So...don't go to Australia.
-
meeting someone from GTM in real life...
-
I've seen Australia's spiders. Scare the sh!t out of me. Reminds me of a pic I saw:
"Australia- Where the spiders are so big they have health bars"
-
meeting someone from GTM in real life...
I have to face this fear every weekday.
-
So, now... I fear nothing.
That is what a real man should believe !
What I fear is mostly me losing all physical and mental power. Hell, I would rather commit suicide four times than be reduced to some sad, non-sapient vegetable in a bed.

i have similar views. just being in a coma for the rest of your life.... it ain't human

i have a fear of freak accidents, so no matter how many times i watch final destination i always end up walking around psychotically paranoid that something where i'm standing will break and a big chain of rube goldberg events will cause something to fall on me and kill me.
-
Oh yeah, I'm also extremely paranoid of being kidnapped/mugged/raped/carjacked. Don't know why, I've always been like that, probably because I exposed myself to that sh** when I was younger (studying serial killers and what not on wikipedia) and needless to say, I am always carrying really sharp objects in my pockets just in case.

had something like that happen to me today
was trying to get my clarinet out, it was stuck against something, and then I accidently yanked it out and slapped the ledge above me (where the trombones and occasionally saxes keep their cases) and a trombone case was teetering dangerously in my direction.
and about 3 other people's directions, but hey, crowded case lock-up room.

At least you didn't get impaled by your clarinet.

Diotor used to scare me. So did feet. Im also scared of Eric Delgados, And Aboa.

Puddles

I am afraid of riding chairlifts at amusment parks that have them
-

-
I freaking hate Diaper Wipes, and Extreme Heights.
Eeeyup. That's all, folks.
-
i hate wasps
I hate them too, I hate any insect with a stinger. It stems from when I was 10. Yours truly accidentally stirred up a bees nest and... Well you get the picture.
-
I dislike elevators, flight, being high up, birds, dogs, wildlife in general, dirt, germs, disorder/disorganisation, the outside world. I don't know if I'd describe most of these as strange, they seem fairly logical to me. Opinions vary however.
-
I also get freaked out by big, wide, open windows at night (like a porch door.) I'm so afraid I'll look out there and see...something? Eye staring back at me, etc.

Occasionally when I'm in the bathroom, I'll see something out of the corner of my eye in the mirror.
that's why I hate bathrooms

Don't worry, it's just a Giant Breadfish in disguise.

Actually, sometimes it's just my younger brother, and I proceed to break one of his limbs.
-
I have fears of bouncy rubber balls. They just bounce up and down. If it happens loads I just freak out.

Dem wardrobes.... look at them at night and you often think something's in there :eek: .

I also have a weird fear that someone SEXEH is going to Tickle Me.

That's an irrational fear... Because it's never going to happen.
