    Scariest thing that's ever happened to you

    Normally, I dislike threads like this. They seem kind of pointless, like no real discussion is going on. However, I saw a thread on the WoW forums, and some of the stories in there have made me thankful for how safe my life has been overall.

    So, what is the one thing that has had you more fearful than ever before? Feel free to spice it up a little (describe surroundings, people, etc.), but don't go overboard.

    As for me, I really can't remember anything overly scary. I think my mind just blocks them out after a while, which can be a good thing.

    Right now, the worst thing I can think of was when I was out at the bus stop (thankfully, I drive now) waiting for the bus to come. It was a pretty dark morning, and I was out earlier than usual. In addition, nobody else in the little neighborhood was outside that morning--usually, there were 3 or 4 others.

    I was waiting there in the dark, barely able to see, when this old pickup truck slowly drives around the corner of the street I was on. The headlights were extremely bright, so I couldn't see anything except bright lights. By now, I was starting to feel a little uneasy. I was wondering why these people seemed to drive up to me and stop and why they had their bright beams on.

    Next, one guy gets out of the truck and starts coming my way. Keep in mind that there was nobody else watching: just me, the guy walking, and the guy driving. As he came closer, I slowly put my books down, watching his every move. Once he got within about 10 feet of me, I started walking away towards my house, making no sudden movements.

    I managed to get inside with no problem, which made me feel very relieved. I ended up getting my mom to drive me that day.

    Strangely enough, I found out who the mysterious person was, though I wasn't able to see him in the dark. It was just another kid riding the bus. He missed his stop, and his dad drove him to my stop to avoid the longer drive to school.




    I know, it's not extremely scary, and being a bewildered freshman at the time made it worse. But it's what I can remember. Now tell yours.

      ^ Rotfl.

      Anyway, I work with my dad cleaning banks.. So we go into this bank (He tells me it's the oldest around here or something) and we're the only ones who work at night. We walk into the basement to get some stuff out and right as we get near the supply thing, it opens by itself. We were both waiting for someone to come out. o____o;;

      We had walked by there tons of times and it hadn't opened. Why would it since it is ****ing heavy x_x Then my dad tried putting the door half-open and other ways, but it wouldn't stay that way, it either had to be closed tightly shut, or all the way open.

      I also saw a shadow around there (before that incident) but I thought I was imagining things.

      And I can't really remember other scary things. Deva Ju scares me.. o o And when someone calls you and you call them at the same time, yeah that's weird xD cos you'll be like "WTF I WAS ABOUT TO CALL YOU." and on instant messangers too.. and when someone else says the same thing at the same time you do.. It's like o o creepy.

      Haha, yeah, that's all.

        You read the WoW forums?
        I have nothing against the game, but I think those forums are just plain boring.
        But they are not nearly as boring as the CoH forums.

          I was 7 and riding my bike around a little cul-de-sac circle with my bike and as I kept doing it I kept trying to go faster.
          I slid on the gravel at one corner and tried my brakes but i ended up pulling the front brake out of panic. I flung forward off my bike and closed my eyes tightly out of fear.
          When i tried to move my head a bit and realized it hit something. I opened my eyes and looked around and there just a few inches away from my unprotected head was a mixed cement with small stones wall.
          I sort of opned my eyes wide got up and slowly walked back.

          And at one point I tried riding my bike on the road and using a roundabout but obviously I was not good at this as a car came and luckily I only ended up hitting the side of it and landed on the path.
          Woman got out and shouted at me for a bit after asking if I was ok and I slowly trailed back home. When I told mum she said it would be alright and sent me back to school S=.

            Re: Scariest thing that's ever happened to you

            Me and my friend decided to take an hour long walk down the "rich people" mountain in my city back to his house. About forty minutes into the walk we started to approach the grave yard and I spot two figures standing on our side of the road. I might be paranoid but I try to avoid anyone and everyone that's outside 1am, especially people standing outside the grave yard. So we cross to the other side of the street and continue walking. When we're directly across the street from them I heard the fat one in a longcoat say, "Hey, you kids wanna buy some crack?" Now, I know people that smoke crack are very unpredictable, like a wild animal, so I calmly reply, "No thanks," and continue to walk with my friend, quickening my pace and ready to bolt at any second. My friend plays for the highest level of soccer and one age bracket above what he should be so I knew he'd be way ahead of me if the need arose. Luckily it didn't. All I heard as we were walking briskly away was, "Hey gimme another hit."

            ****in crack heads, they're scary I tell ya. Especially ones that try to deal to random strangers outside a cemetery in the dead of night.

              You are terribly wrong. Its fun to laugh at the douches, and there are some half-intelligent people on there talking about interesting things (such as the scary thread).

                Re: Scariest thing that's ever happened to you

                Last semester, at the beginning of Spring Break, I was driving from Waco to Dallas on I-35, which is severely clogged with construction. At one point, I was three cars back in a group of cars trying to get around a semi. I was past the semi, but still in the left lane (I must have either just gotten by or there was still traffic in the right lane or something -- I'm pretty good about getting out of the passing lane if I am not using it), when I see a flattened orange construction warning barrel fly up into the air in front of the first car in the line I am in. Naturally, the cars in front of me slow down to avoid this hazard, and I have to step hard on the breaks to avoid rear-ending the car immediately in front of mine.

                From behind me I hear squealing tires and then a crash, and I just KNOW I am about to be rear-ended. I look in my rear-view mirror to see the van that had been behind me spinning out into the right lane, directly into the path of the semi we had all been trying to pass. As the van clears the left lane I see one car on top of another. Seems there had been a chain reaction of rear-endings.

                I don't know how, but the semi missed the van. I saw it slide to the shoulder (luckily there was no cement guardrail on the right side at this point on the highway, but there were construction workers), and then I saw the semi pull over. That was about all I saw, as I gtfo'd as soon as the car in front of me got out of the way.

                I sometimes still feel guilty about not stopping to make sure everyone was okay, but there wasn't really anything I could do except call the police and then sit around waiting for help to arrive.

                And then this last Monday I ran over a ****ing spare tire in the ****ing middle of the ****ing road. I'm in the right lane, when suddenly a truck pulls over from the left lane and ****ing stops, so I have to swerve into the left to keep from hitting the truck, only to see that he was dodging the tire (why, when his truck was high enough to just go right over it, I won't ever know), and I got to listen to the terrible sound of a huge road hazard banging against the undercarriage of my car.

                I have what my friends call, "driving crises".

                  Scariest thing that happened to me to is when I lost almost half my amount in blood. I was hit by a bike and had cut my wrist, head and back. I remember having 5 people around my holding as much pressure on my wounds as possible. The funny thing was the cuts weren't that bad really. Just I was unlucky with where the cuts were and the amount there were. I made a full recovery. The scary thing was, I just remember being really giddy and thinking over and over that I was going to die. It was scary because it was a sensation I had never felt before. My vision was like really dim and orange, It felt that there wasn't any ground beneath me. When I woke up in hospital I was petrified, I cried for like 4 hours. Then I got about £1000 compo because I was on a crossing. My dad stole it off me.

                    Re: Scariest thing that's ever happened to you

                    This one time when i was only old enough to walk. My mom and dad were at the checkout line in a grocery store and this one stranger was sitting down and he looked lonely so i waddle away from my parents to go and shake the guys hand and when i reached out he just grabbed me and started heading for the door. by then my dad knew what was going on and he started running too. my dad grabbed my legs and the stranger had my arms, playing tug-o-war with me, and i had no idea what was going on at all. my dad finally got me back, though i dont know what happened to that guy.

                    THIS IS A TRUE STORY

                      Re: Scariest thing that's ever happened to you

                      This probably isn't the SCARIEST thing that's happened to me, just all I can remember :P.

                      I was on this boating camp in Poland for a month, and I had just turned 10. (I'm half-Polish) (And yes I live in America)

                      So, a little ways from where our boats were docked on this island, there was a shop where we could get candy and soda and the like. Everyone else except a few people had gone ahead of me, because I was back in our boat grabbing my wallet.

                      So I got fmy wallet, (it was that kind with the strap for your neck) and I started along the road to catch up to everyone. Then I go around a bend and see this old rusty red truck slowly making it's way towards me.

                      I figure It's probably nothing so I just keep walking. But then, the truck continues behind me and u-turns. It stats catching up.

                      I'm like O CRAP. They probably saw that I had a wallet around my neck or something. Whatever it was, I felt like they were gonna eat me. (The truck had tinted windows, I couldn't see inside it.)

                      So then I turn around again, not looking at the truck or making any sudden movements. I'm heading back to the boat now, and I seem to have lost him.

                      But of course a couple minues later I see the guy still following me.

                      So like any 10-year-old I turn around AGAIN and run like crap. The truck turns around and starts speeding at me, driving in the wrong lane like the guy means to hit me.

                      Oh yea this road was next to a huge forest.

                      So I figure the guy PROBABLY can't find me in there. I turn a corner make a dive into the forest, hiding behind a small hill. The truck then turns the corner and continues speeding along the road.

                      I eventually ran back to the boat crying like a 10yearold. Cuz... you know.

                      But that scared me a lot.

                          When i was eight (and yes still living in Israel) my mom, my brother and myself were heading to sleep. It was hot those days so i opened my window so i can get some air in my room and went to bed.

                          Little did i know... there was a guy across the street watching our house.
                          Then I hear a scratch like something is trying to rip a piece of tape.
                          Infront of my window there was a garden and a fence surrounded it. So i thought "hmm probably the dog" (i had a dog wolf back then called Nala).

                          So i go back to sleep but something wakes me up.

                          A guy was looking inside my room right at me.
                          He stared at me and it felt like ages that i stared back.
                          I was eight and i didn't know what to do finally i stood up on my bed and yelled my mom's name. Then started running to her room.

                          My mom took my brother and me to the neighbor's house and called the police to search around the house/neighborhood. Asked me to describe him... what was he wearing... but no luck. He was probably out of sight for good.

                          We then stayed the whole night and next day in my uncle's house (because he lived on the same street).

                          I don't know what would have happened... and from that day foward i sleep with a light and my windows closed shut.

                          And that was the scariest thing that has ever happened to me.

                          בקצה השמיים, ובסוף המדבר, יש מקום רחוק מלא פרחי בר
                          מקום קטן, עלוב ומשוגע, מקום רחוק מקום לדאגה
                          יש אומרים שם שמשיקרה וחושבים אל כל מה שקרה
                          אלוהים שם יושב ורואה ושומר אל כל משברא
                          אסור לקטוף את פרחי הגן

                            I went on the ride "thunder mountain" in disneyland. When I was four. I think I wet myself...3 times. I don't have any real-life endagering scares, like people following me or anything. ROFL though once when I went to mexico with my grandma this guy started pulling me into his shop by my arm and said "I have something you really might like," and my grandma kept walking away. He wasn't a bad person, but its pretty scary being pulled away from your grandma by a mexican who "wants to show you something he thinks you'd really enjoy." OK, so it wasn't that scary, I just don't have any good examples. Well...actually there was the time when I was 3 seconds from getting into a car crash (my sister was driving.) We were headed to church, and our street is SUPER narrow, so you have to really edge to one side to avoid oncoming traffic. It isn't usually busy, so my sister doesn't pay much attention. She goes to fiddle with the radio, then we start drifting. As soon as I start to warn her that she should keep an eye on the road, a car comes shooting around a bend and straight at us. A scream from me and my other sister was enough for her to instantly jerk to the side, wheels squealing and all that jazz. I say close-call car crashes are some of the really scary things out there.

                              My scariest moments are when I require shots for something. Needles scare me.
