I dunno really. I used to be a nervous fearful person when I was younger.

I like Yorick's quote, and believe that to be true. I don't really fear anything.

I don't like small enclosed spaces, and can get a bit panicky, but I can overcome it now where I never used to be able to. I wouldn't want to die, but I don't fear death, it's just that I like life.

I can feel an adrenalin rush in a dangerous situation, but that's not the same as feeling fear - it's a necessary reaction. I truly believe I can deal with any situation.

Fear and excitement are just 2 sides of the same coin. The difference is made by your reaction.
Perhaps I should fear my own over-confidence.

I have a pathological fear of Internet message boards. As a result I must post frequently in order to successfully combat my inner demons.

I don't like large groups of people, but I wouldn't call that a fear. I do fear losing a loved one though.

hmm I am afraid of spiders, although it isnt the panicked kind of fear, and heights. Especially if I am standing on some not so stable platform or other.

oh and I *love* thunderstorms lol

I'm afraid of looking down on deap water. For example I can't look over a cliff or over the break water at the harbour. But i'm fine with looking off a tall building (that fear was cursed when i was made to absail looking down.)
I also fear losing people i love. Its a bit silly but i've lost a lot of people that are important to me and everytime it gets easier. I'm afraid that the next time i won't be able to cry and people will think i'm heartless. Thats almost happened to me before.

God, let me top this one. My fear is (was, cuz im kinda over it now) the dumbest of all. It's the fear of finding myself in a crowd (trainstation or disco or so) and be completely BUTT-naked!! I do not kid you. Five years back it was an intolerable fear. I dressed myself with three layers of clothes, even in mid-summer. I could just picture all the faces laughing and screaming at me. Really bad ...
