Answer 1

Waking up in the emergency room with a tube down my throat and the doctor saying i thought we lost you for a second there.

Answer 2

The scariest thing I have ever witnessed was when I was in winnipeg (a few years ago) when I thought I heard a gunshot ! It was actually a car that hit a curb and went 5 feet into the air and landed on its roof ! It also took down a tree in the process ! The Ambulance showed up as well as the police department and the Fire trucks were there ! The car didn't blow up but it sure scared the hell out of me because I was only about 10 feet away !

Answer 4

There are some good comments and since I have those too, I thought I would share one from when I was about 9 years old.
My mom had moved us to Hawaii and their we lived for 2 years.
We went to Waikiki Beach where there was a lifeguard on duty.
I was with my sisters floating on my back since I didn't know how to swim.
The Lifeguard yelled "SHARK!!! EVERYONE OUT OF THE WATER!!!"
I saw that Tiger Shark swim over the netting and was headed for me.
I went running across the Pacific Ocean towards the shore at full speed for a 9 year old.
I looked back only once, and saw the dorsal fin not to far from me.
I have been that scared since then, but this was my first time.
Thank you for the memories...It was fun to remember that again.

Answer 5

I was a police officer and I saw a young man get shot to death before my eyes. I ran over to help him while other officers chased down and caught the gunman. My eyes locked with the young man, and he died. I was the last person he saw alive. If that wasn't bad enough, everyone in the neighborhood thought I was the one who shot him. The local news station even reported that a police officer shot a young man in the back. There was a riot in front of our precinct as everyone demanded "justice". It took several hours to convince everyone that a police officer did not shoot the poor victim, but the man who was arrested was the one who shot him. There was no community outrage about that. No one started a riot because one young man shot another young man to death over a girl. That was by far the most horrible thing I saw, and that happened to me.
I am not forgetting the young man who was shot. I think of him often. Many times, I'll dream of him, and in my dreams, he is alive and he asks "why didn't you protect me?" Maybe one day in another life I will meet him and try to explain. Everyone tells me I did nothing wrong, but I can't shake the idea that as he was dying, and looking at me in uniform, that he wasn't thinking that I could have protected him. The whole situation was a tragedy.

Answer 6

I saw a boy drown one time in a small lake. He was splashing and screaming. Me and some friends were trying to make it out to him, we got within 30 yards or so and he slipped under. We finally made it to where he sank and dove under trying to find him but we couldn't. Divers brought his body up almost 12 hours later.
The scariest part was diving down about 30 feet trying to find him 30 mins after the fact. You knew he was already dead. The water was so cold and black that far down, not the kind of place you want to bump into a lifeless body. Definitely not a place you want to die.

Answer 7

The Future

Answer 8

When I was in the 7th grade, I had a difficult time waking up. I couldn't open my eyes and felt like something was pinning me down. When I finally struggled to get my eyes open, I saw long black hair coming out of the wall dangling over my face (my bed was against the wall). I blinked and it was gone. Room empty.

Answer 9

this may not be scary to you, but actually it is scary to think that at any minute or second you could die. I have seen many dead people since I am in the emergency medical field, and seeing a person die is scary. because you know that it could be you or someone you love. especially when you have to pick up someones brains off the pavement, and then realized that you know this person.

Answer 10

A man pointing a shot gun at my head ...the barrels weren't 6 inches away from my nose. I knew it was loaded too. You can stay very calm even if you are looking at the scariest thing you have ever seen.

Answer 11

I saw my brother in law accidently shoot himself in the knee with a pistol. Kinda thought he might die from loss of blood since we were way out in the country with no hospitals near by.

Then again, I was at Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia when terrorists blew up one of the dorms ten years ago. I was pretty far away when it happened, but when I saw the mushroom cloud expanding over the towers that was pretty scary too.
