Default Inspired by no one's thread: What's the most scared you've ever been?

I'd easily say getting seperated from my girlfriend at the time in the Times Square subway station during rush hour. I'm legally blind (duh) and we couldn't find each other for 15 minutes. Holy crap, that was intense.

of course, those two tornado's that destroyed my houses sucked, too.

once i got into a car accident. i was going 80 mph and i hit the center divider.
then this guy pulled his car up in front of me and got out screaming "get the fuck away from your car, something is leaking and i don't know what it is."
that was pretty scary.

jesus christ. that's nuts, man.

i've been in so many car accidents. i wasn't injured in anyof them, but feels pretty weird knowing exactly what a car crash sounds like from inside the car.

but everytime that i've been geniune scared involved cops.i've nearly been arrested on 3 different occasions and watched my mom get arrested once. god damn it, i fucking hate cops so much.

You're legally blind and yet you always blame the mexicans for breaking the printing press.

From now on I'm imagining your complaints in a Mr. Magoo voice..

Most scared i've been was when i got pulled over by a ride program and i was a little "buzzed".


he was asking me all these questions that made me sound even drunker, too. I had to blow, but fortunately i only blew a 0.018. 0.08=i get arrested.

i think it's only because of my body size that i was able to get through unscathed -- i'm 6'7, 245lbs... but i was definitely a bit more buzzed than i should have been driving. Now i don't drive with ANY alcohol in me whatsoever.

mind you, this isn't as scary as the other stories people are saying :P

Definitely my car accident. I was driving home from work late on a Saturday and while crossing an intersection and some lady ran her red light and hit me. My car spun around twice and flipped on its side, finally landing on the sidewalk. Luckily she hit me in the passenger-side door because it was totally crushed. The passenger seat was pressing up against me and I actually had to wait for them to get me out because the driver-side door was the side the car landed on. I went from driving like normal to spinning around and then trapped in my car on its side. I was freaking out but had the sense to yell for help. All I ended up with was lots of cuts and bruises with bruised ribs. Thank God for seatbelts.

if it makes you feel any better, our power went out last night and i was convinced that a murderer had turned it off and was in the house. i was backed up against a wall til my mom lit some candles.
i'm always convinced someone is in the house

i don't know just how bad 20/400 is do you know what your glasses prescription would be if you wore them and them alone? i'm not sure what it's technically called...'power' maybe...e.g. -5.6 (L) and -7.6 (R). could that even correct your eyesight to a satisfactory level or don't they make glasses that powerful?

i only ask cos i always considered my eyesight to be really bad. my glasses are -8.25 and -7.5, which is by far the worst of anyone i know. the whole reason i got contacts in the first place is that my glasses look like the bottom of milk bottles (i don't know whether you have them in the US, even.. - imagine a thicker beer bottle bottom). i've always wondered whether i was close to being 'legally blind'.
