Fear Not....Or Do You?

[grfox92]

Being startled by snakes is right up there. If I see a snake at a distance and I can give him a wide berth I’m pretty okay, but thinking about nearly stepping on one makes my stomach turn.

This is how I am too. Im more scared if the surprise of a snake than the snake itself. If I know it's there I can go up and check it out. I still dont like.

This is the first rattle snake I almost RAN over the top of chasing elk.

For guys that hate spiders, how do you feel about ticks? Spring bear hunting has made me hate them less since you’re covered in them all day and just have to deal with it

Personally I’m an avid needle hater. Coworkers talking about tattooed the other day made me have to go sit down and drink water so I didn’t vomit

That's how I feel about snakes, fine if I know they're coming but scare the bejeezus out of me if I don't see them. Unfortunately for me we have a garter snake nest somewhere in my back yard or one of my neighbors yards and I have a mini heart attack a couple dozen (or more) times per summer while mowing and doing yard work.

Dude I stepped on a garter snake one night in my bare feet when I went out to move the sprinkler. I don’t know where you live at but you probably hear me shriek from NE Washington

56 year old me breakdancing on New Years Eve this last one. Just to shock my adult kids who had never seen me do it before.

You've got all of the required skills to enter the next Olympics.

I was moving in on a bull 2 years ago, took a step over some brush and a log, heard a rattle BETWEEN MY LEGS. I felt like those guys at the combine with 40" verts, I straight levitated out of there. I killed the bull

My hearing is so shot that I can barely hear rattlesnakes.
