Just curious to everyone who wishes to share their scariest experience in their lives :)! This is all for fun so please be considerate of one another <3!! Follow all WP Rules and DONT exaggerate your stories :)!

my dog ran away when i was like, 9 or 10. my mom got me in the car at like 10:00 pm and we drove looking for him. some man had stolen him and we saw him from a window in a garage. my mom got out and told him to give our dog back, and he hit her and called her some names before his wife came out and gave us our dog back

I would say for me, the scariest experience was the time I was visiting my nana and grandpa for a week of summer. Well one evening we canoed and we got back to the dock area after the sun had set. My nana also told me prior to this "there are snakes that come out at night and like to sit at the base of trees to eat cicadas." I already hated the dark at this time and those woods were pitch black (these woods also had coyotes) , they decided the best option was for me to go up to the house, alone in the woods, in the pitch darkness. Running through the woods, unable to see pretty much anything, not knowing what was around me, seeing the light of the house at the end like a beacon. ( yes this was the most terrifying thing I remember doing as a kid<.<.)

The one time I was at Kentucky Kingdom and we in the water part (Hurricane Bay) and the waves in the wave pool started going and I didn't want to go in them so my grandma told me to wait but then I ended up going in and I don't remember this part but I remember that I ended up having to climb up the ladder to get to a life guard and we waited up there for the waves to stop but I still couldn't find my grandma so they walked my down to the list children place and I sat there and they gave me Gatorade and just let me talk to the other lost kids

Me and this one girl were talking and trying to point out the others parent to help

I was so scared @-@

The scariest timevdor me was when I was about . I was riding home on the bus only to see my home on fire. I didn't know where ny family was only saw the flames. I lived in a rule area. Naturally I freaked out. Thankfully he bus driver was also a volunteer fire fighter. He carried me to my mom and called other firefighters. We lost tge house but thankfully my family was safe

I nearly chocked on a roller coaster at Bay Beach in Greenbay WI. Thanks school field trip :)

When I was changing out a game in my switch, I heard a whisper. I jumped, ran to my kitchen and stayed there for a good 20 minutes. When I went to my room again, the game was in my switch. I don't remember putting it in there.

I was driving my old 2002 chrystler convertable (It's really not as cool as it sounds) and I was right behind an 18-wheeler, but in the left lane while he was in the right. we were entering a T-road while the 18-wheeler and I were driving on the -- part of the T and this other guy decides to go 120mph down the I part of the T. Of course, the 18-wheeler and I had the right-of-way, but this guy was going SO FAST, we tried to slow down in time but it was too late. The guy was driving a honda van think-? (I don't know my cars at all) But he rammed right into the front of that 18-wheeler. The whole front of the 18-wheeler was demolished, it was like a cinnamon roll, rolled under the truck like a swirl and he slammed hard into the ditch. The other guy however didn't even had a car anymore. The car was reduced to a pile of scrap metal. The sound was horrible, the sound of squealing tires, metal crunching and clashing, It was so loud I thought I went deaf. I was sure that both of those guys had died. I immediately jumped out of my car and went to the Honda guy. I had to rip what I thought was a door off the pile and pulled him out. He didn't have a scratch on him (only a major concussion which sounds bad but I thought it would be much worse based on the state of the car). I ran over to the other guy, who already had people helping him but he also didn't has a scratch. It was so insane, I had never felt adrenaline that hard ever before.

i had a 85' chevy suburban and i flipped it over when i was climbing rocks with my friends the whole roof got caved in and the roll cage was the only thing left that was decent. i only scrached myself because my radio fell off and the back cut my hand

Two summers ago, I had a really bad case of pneumonia. It started Friday night as just a sore throat, Saturday I felt like death itself, same with Sunday, and Sunday evening is when the coughing started. I coughed everythime I inhaled, I would cough so much Id throw up, and I had extreme shortness of breath as breathing became very hard. I was rushed by my mom to the emergency room, where they did a bunch of things and gave me an inhaler (which didnt work), and I was there until about 3am until they let me go home. Next morning, Monday, I was 100x worse. I couldnt move without getting absolutely exhausted, and I wouldnt be able to breath. Even laying down, my breathing rate was was high. My mom took me back to the emergency room, and I threw up from exhaustion simply getting in the car. At the emergency room they rushed me to a room, where I was then transported by ambulance to another hospital. I was put on at least 40-60 liters of oxygen, given a sedative, and tested for every possible infectious disease. Negative for everything except rhinovirus (the common cold). Still havent figured out what caused the pneumonia, but I was in the hospital for a week. I couldnt even get out of the hospital bed or sit up. Scariest moment of my life, I genuinely thought I was dying
