Default Name the Time you have been most scared.

To be a little more specific; For example, if you have ever been held up, car jacked, etc

Not, when someone jumped out from behind a door.

The time that stands out in my mind the most was a few summers ago when I was at a "party/small gathering" of about 6 or 8 people. We were all pretty intoxicated, I was WAY past the limit of driving.

Anyway the owner of the house had recently broken up with his fiancee, and someone stopped by and told him some long story about how watched the ex-girl friend and another guy do some things....blah blah blah.

Needless to say he was furious and pulled a gun and started shooting holes in the floor(4 or 5 rounds). This was a pretty good friend of mine, at the time, we had drank together plenty of times and he had never acted like this.

At that point in time I was out, my girl gave me the "GET ME THE HELL OUT" Look

This was the ONLY time I drove drunk, and now looking back I should have called someone but I almost shit my pants, and it "sobered" me up real quick.
Fortunately it was about 3am and my G/F's house was only about 4 miles away. (Still, I know it was wrong so please no lectures please)



Sorry for the book, I didn't expect it to be this long.

I was at the beach when I was younger doing some body surfing in the waves -- it was one of those beach days where it was high tide so the waves were breaking right on the beach. Well I went on one of the waves and it took me up and over it and I landed right on my face. Usually I would just duck and roll in the wave but my face dug into the beach, making me unable to roll so instead my back went up and arched all the way over and I heard LOUD cracking. I was then laying on the beach on my side and the pain was so intense I couldn't get up. I could have sworn I broke my back and that would have been it. Luckly I was able to get up and hobble over to my blanket where I layed for the rest of the day. My back continued to hurt the whole next week.

That was easily the scariest moment of my life. Talk about child hood drama

Yeah my situation involved several guns, excess alcohol (I was sober) and being on an island in the middle of nowhere. Never before or since have I been that terrified.

landing a helicopter, on night vision goggles, in a 4-plane formation, into a field with a fresh dusting of snow. Things go blind very quickly.

Never been so scared in my life.

I'm a old fart familyman now but I have been shot once, knifed several times , crashed sportbikes at the track and on the freeway at over 100 mph (several times),crashed cars/ karts at the track. Can't really say I was scared, most of the times when it happens I was more pissed than scared. Once you almost bleed out not much scares you. When my wife gave birth to our sons I guess I can say I was scared shltless, no problems for either boy thank God ,just that I was powerless in case there was a problem. And now when my 7 & 4 year old sons take to the track in their karts I'm scared for them.

what? like u were kidnapped by pirates or something??


ok i was like around 14 years old, and my whole family flew to syria for a month, cause to us thats home country. and we went to this hotel to go to the beach. my whole family was down at the beach, and i came up to grab a plum from our bag near the pool deck. i ate it, and then for some reason i accidently tried to swallow the pit, and it got lodged in my throat. and being the idiot i was, i tried swallowing real hard to get it down, which only made it worse. so i ran into the hotel and for some reason i guess i was so delirious i ran up the stairs, and i kept running, and then i tripped and fell on my knees, and thats when i threw up and out came the pit seed! then i passed out
