What are you scared of and why?

Here's what people in London said:

I'm afraid of spiders. One night, I had a spider come in from my
window and it could actually roll itself up into a little ball which
scared me to death and so then I went and slept in the living room
instead.

Heights… because once, I didn't think I was scared of heights, but
when I was in Kuala Lumpa I went to the Petronas Towers and I
climbed to the top of it, I looked out the window and then basically
I had to sit on the floor in the middle of the building. I just didn't
know what happened to me, it was too high, too scary!

Evil clowns. Because they're funny but deadly!

Now tell us, what are you scared of

?
