Ok...here is my list:

I am afraid of....
sharks
heights
and anything that is unusually large (ex. a hot air balloon or blimp, a big water tower, a huge airplane...and if I lived back then..dinosaurs)

We can't leave our shoes outside because of redback spiders.  My mother lives on acreage and she quite often get snakes in the house (they're only green tree snakes).  There was a story on the news the other night that for a half hour a king brown snake wriggled its way down the street in Surfers Paradise until the Council were able to get a snake handler to remove it.  It's against the law to kill a snake here.

SEE!!!

Even in Missouri when i am there (and there are some deadly animals there) you can leave your shoes outside with almost no fear, and no deadly snakes wiggle down the street. I expect if they do they get killed.

We do have adders near my house, they are pit Vipers and pretty deadly.

  Bees, wasps, hornets, horseflies and the like...

  When one gets close to me or worse yet, actually lands on me, I have a meltdown.

  I've nearly had accidents because a bee would fly into the cab of the truck while I was driving.

going to court

going through chemotherapy and losing all of my cuticle down to the finger/toe nails

gravity working against me in the uh-hum  ;)

I'm actually not afraid of heights at all.. just airplanes.  I love to jump from high places i.e. bungee jumping, high diving boards, etc.

I think skydiving looks really fun, but I won't do it... not because I'm afraid of the jump, but because I'm afraid of the plane.  :-[

There is a big swamp in the township here, and there are many reptiles that live in there.  I sometimes have nightmares that I fell into the swamp, and those giant turtles were biting at me.  I don't like reptiles.  They freak me out big time  :o
