The most terrifying moment for me has been when i was about 7. It was the first time i went on one of those rides at an amusement park where the ride goes straight up, then falls straight back down. It was at Six Flags and it was very tall. Although im not scared now, the fear i felt when i was 7 was so terrible i can still remember it vividly. What has been the most terrifying moment in your life?

The most terrifying moment for me was when i went to pick up my son from daycare and they said he wasnt at the school when they went to pick him up. At first i thought they were kidding and i went all over the daycare calling his name and telling all the employees and children to stop playing. But then when i realized that he was not there mny heart sank. I knew i dropped him off at school this morning and watched him go in the class so what could have happened? My mother and i drove to the school and there he was sitting in the office. I was so scared that i was yelling at him for not being at the daycare until i heard him say mommy why you yelling at me i'm the one who was left at school. And then it hit me he was just as scared and i held him really tight and cried because just the thought of him being gone scared me. So for those parents who have missing children even though my child turned out to be at the school, if i was crying and hysterical just from that i could imagine what it is like to still not know where your child is. I wouldnt be the same at all.

The most terrifying moment of my life was way back when I was still a student doing my internship in one of the rural mountain communities. I literally fell off the cliff as I was finding my way up after taking a bath in one of the small waterfalls which was the community's water source. I slipped and felt myself flying down and landed on my behind and going down. the soil was loose and the slippery. I thought I was going to die or land at the bottom with broken everything. Then I just grabbed on to anything my hand could reach but all I held were tall grasses that were pulled up after I grabbd them. Then suddenly I had a grip on a small tree as big as my arm and held on for dear life as my other companions were finding a way to get to me while some who were still at the bottom of the cliff were ready to catch me. That was really scary.

The most terrifying moment in my life was the day when I almost got hit by a bus. I was biking and it was a very narrow street. I discovered a bus behind me, and I wanted to wait on the sidewalk while the bus passed, but I was in a hurry and I hit the curb and fell down on the street right in front of the bus. I still don't understand how I managed to get away from the street, because it all happened so fast, but I did get away a few seconds before the bus hit me. This happened 4 years ago, but I still remember everything very clearly.

the most treeifying moment of my life was when i was in 4th grade so i was about 9 or 10 and i was climbing this great big pine tree to get a toy me and my friends accidently threw in the top. well i was almost to the very top of the tree and apparently i stepped on the wrong branch and it snapped! as i fell i kindof did a sommersault and got alot of scratches on my back but somehow as the last tier of branches was right below me i put my arms out and was caught under the arm pits and didnt get any more hurt than the scratches it was terrifying and amaising.

The most terrifying moment in my life was when I nearly drowned! I was with my mum's friend at the time with her kids and we were playing around in the big swimming pool and I got onto the lilo, trouble is I can't swim and the two kids I was with could, the lilo drifted out and upturned plummeting me down into the water, it was horrible, fortunately my mums friend had seen what had happened and came in and rescued me, if it wasn't for her quick thinking well I dread to think what would have happened! It was very scary! Fortunately I can now swim so I didn't let the incident put me off going back into the water.

i guess for me it was about 20 or so years ago when i was hit by a car. i was crossing the street and the car ran into me and i flew off the windshield and landed on me knees. now, after 20 years of wear and tear plus a couple of pregnancies, my knees give me constant pain.

I think mine was sliding backwards in my car on a snowy mountain road. That was pretty darn scary because I didnt know if I was going to completely fall off the mountain, was going to bang into a nother car or what exactly was going to happen, fortunately, I ended up in a ditch on the side of the road.

I've had quite a few I think, though I will only recount one. There was this time when my dad was driving, and I was seated directly behind him. Everyone inside the car was busy talking, and nobody noticed that there was this guy pushing a tricycle across the street. It was evening, so it was dark and for some reason I seem to be the only one to see him. I guess everyone just wasn't paying attention. I remember yelling to my dad, and then he slammed the breaks. We have just avoided a horrible accident and I have never felt so terrified. To this day whenever my dad drives and it's dark, I really feel unsettled.
