Have you ever been truly terrified?

TheMilkyPirate

What i mean is have you ever been so scared where you can't move, your legs are shaking and you just about literally sh*t yourself. Genuinely terrified.

Me, I don't think i have fortunately. Most scared i can remember being was at work one day standing next to the teleporter when the biggest rottweiler i had ever seen (owner of the houses dog) came out from the other side and just looked at me, ran at me then and just jumped up on me.. Didn't bite or attack me but when he ran at me i was shaking like a vibrator..

Many moons ago I was snorkelling in the sea when something soft slowly wrapped itself around my neck.

Fearing it was a jelly fish or something worse I let off an underwater roar. Bubbles were flying everywhere (in fact there were more bubbles flying out the other end at this stage) and I started grabbing at this soft thing around my neck.

Swimming for shore at a rate of knots throwing women and children behind me, I then discovered it was a large plastic bag. Spooked the life out of me though...

About two years ago it was about one in the morning and myself and my friend drove to the very back of the industrial estate for a smoke. We were in this car park at the very back closed in with only one way out. Befor we knew it we were surronded by 3 men in balaclavas. one tried to open our door and another one was on a motorbike circling behind us. My friend was screaming for me to drive but i just froze i was shaking, a hundred thoughts were racing through my head, i thought they were gonna rob my car then i was thinkng they would attack us and how no one was around to help. I never felt so terrified i got the car started and tried to reverse out but the motor bike was circling around me and the other two fella were trying to open the car doors. i just hit the accelerator and took off and burned down the road and your man followed us until we got onto the main road.
I'd say we drove into something we shouldnt, we were stupid two girls alone in a car in an isolated spot in the middle of the night. I wont be doing that again

I personally would have ran them all over.

What's the American Dream thing?

Conor108

What is that american dream yoke?

EDIT: Similar nicknames there^^ I thought the same person questioned himself!

delta_bravo

Getting vertigo while on a tightrope. Was so exhausted at the time I wanted to fall. It was "only" a 30ft drop so I thought Id only get reasonably minor injuries

andrew

the american dream is when you get someone to hyperventilate for a few seconds, then get them to hold their breath while you push their chest in (while standing in front of a wall or something.) it makes you black out, usually for a few seconds.

Once only.

I was upstairs getting ready for a shower when I heard my wife screaming downstairs. I ran out and all I heard was ''KEVIN IS AFTER GETTING KNOCKED DOWN" (my son, 5 at the time).

It was the most terrifying time of my life.

Must have been awful

I fell in to the deep end of a swimming pool when I was five or six...and was terrified I was going to drown.
I remember going freakishly calm after a while and just accepting it...but had a lucky escape in the end. Scary though!

That happened my mam when she was about 9 in a boghole.. she accepted the fact that she was dying and was quite happy that she was going to see her daddy again (died when she was 7), then a neighbour pulled her out by the hair. Lucky for mankind, eh? She did produce exceedingly good children.

As for petrified, worst I can think of was when my son was running around an electrical goods shop.. he's two, and all of a sudden, I couldn't see him anymore and I was convinced he'd run out onto the main Dublin road.. My stomach was so sick

Oh yeah, or the day the hospital told me my two week old baby was populated with MRSA but neglected to tell me what that meant. How I ever drove home that day, I'll never know..

I've had a few scary experiences, but the absolute worst was one night a few years ago.
I had moved to a new town the year before, and was living a small place by myself. After a few months, I started receiving letters and 'gifts' - unsigned, no return address - on my doorstep.
One night, the phone rang several times with only heavy breathing on the other end. There were also some knocks at the door, and when I looked out the window to see who was knocking no one was there.
Finally, I went to bed. I wasn't quite asleep when I heard the doorknob of my front door jiggle. I was absolutely terrified, couldn't move. A few minutes later, the door opened and I heard someone walk in.
I got out of bed - my legs were shaking - and opened my bedroom door. A man I had never seen before was standing in the living room. Apparently, it was the man who'd been stalking me for months.
Needless to say, it was a really, really, terrifying experience, especially when I think of all the ways it could have been worse.

I once lost control of my buoyancy on a training scuba dive in Killary harbour and plummeted 40 metres below the surface (15-20 metres was the limit for training with CFT), into pitch black, freezing water, where I promptly panicked and forgot how to do anything except signal that I was cold and couldn't breathe. If not for the dive leader managing to find me and throw away my weight belt, I would have died. That was easily the most frightening thing I have ever experienced. Although getting to the compression chamber in UCHG from the arse-end of Mayo in 20 minutes by car runs a close second.

:eek: :eek: Killary to Galway in 20 minutes? :eek:

You East Coast people don't appear to realise the significance of this!

Well, it could have been 30. That driver slowed down for nothing.

In one of the head shops in town, we rather stupidly decided to try BZP (a legal because its not yet banned substance half similiar to ecstasy)

Went to my mates, took them, started coming up after 3 hours, it was nice, not nearly as energetic as the real thing but still, pretty cool, at times it was like being really chilled stoned.

Effected us in 2 different ways. I completely crashed knackered by 1:30, he got severely paanoid about a wide variety of things, i was convinced he was going to kill me due to his increasingly bizarre and paranoid ranting, and he was convinced I was sending texts to other mates making fun of him

(we laugh about it now, but when you are cowered in a bed with your mate leaning down 3 feet from your head saying x y and z people "are nothin but a bunch of back stabbing bastards" it wasnt a laughing matter at the time :eek: ). I had no credit to leave and he wouldnt let me ring a taxi on his phone, "YER NOT LEAVIN ME HERE ON MY OWN LIKE THIS!!" (the sh1t causes muscle tightness, he lost all feeling in one leg and was convinced he would be disabled for life)

The Gopher that was one of the funniest stories ever.

I suppose the fact that I actually don't have one is a good thing....but all of yours are freaking me out!

[Deleted User]

Nothing worse than a night terror (the ultimate nightmare). Experienced one a few days after a real self-defense encounter. Except in the dream he was not only drunk, but as big, strong, aggressive, and ugly as King Kong!:eek:
