View Full Version : What is the scariest thing that has ever happened to you?
Three'sCompanyrules 01-07-2003, 05:41 AM I don't know if this has been a topic or not,so I apologize if this is a repeat.
Here is My scariest moment story. In school last year we had a class were we go to different places of business and job shadow and actualy do some of the work, well I went to ALLMAND BROTHERS which makes constructions lights or flood lights,anyway they had me move around to different places such as the assembley line,plasma cutting,welding and the paint room to name a few,well my scariest moment came from the welding department. I have never welded before in my life so I didn't know what I was doing. The guy working there told me to weld somethings for practice and being I never welded before which I told him I thought he would help me out well he didn't,so anyway I started welding and the welding needle got stuck in the metal and I couldn't get it out,so being I never welded before, I didn't know what to do,so I set the welding gun down and all of the sudden there were alot of sparks and a lot of heat and I was standing right there,after that I literaly ran to tell the worker what happened then every thing was ok,but he said I could have been seriously injured or even killed. I wasn't very happy with the worker because he was supposed to supervising me. Needless to say I have never and will never weld again.
What is the scariest thing that has ever happened to you?

laceyinthesky 01-08-2003, 04:55 PM My scariest moment would probably either be when I was in a car wreck and started going toward oncoming traffic :eek: or when I was younger and playing outside and almost got shot. :eek:
JoPol_wannabe 01-09-2003, 03:27 AM Well the scarest thing was when I was five we went on a vacation in Denver Colorado and we were at the hotel going to our room and we were in the stairway and my brother is like I bet I can bet you to our room so we raced up the stairs and all of a sudden I didn't see my brother and I looked back and I didn't see my parents and so I went up one more flight of stairs and then people were comming out of the door like crazy so I started getting scared so I stood over in the corner of the stairs and hoped no one would grab me then all of a sudden this lady with a name tag grabbed me took me down on flight of stairs opened the door then asked me if my name was Adrienne and I said yes and she was like your parents are looking for you so she took me back to our room and all I can remeber was running and hugging my mom then running behind the bed because I knew my mom was mad at me for racing with my brother but I was glad to be back with my parents.

Yes.......
and when I got lost in the Berkshires skiing at night. :eek3: In the dark. Alone. On a closed, double black diamond trail.
DetectiveGriffin 01-09-2003, 04:27 PM I dont know if this is just upsetting or scary, I was pretty afraid I'd lose my job, so I say it counts.
One time the director of nursing at the hospital where I worked ordered my friend to wash a patients OPEN WEEPING leg wounds with lysol, because the patient smelled bad and the DON thought she was filthy and needed to be steralized. I was so psychotically po'd at her wreaklessness and stupidity -- this woman in a nurse with several ADVANCED degrees, and she thought this human being needed to be steralized with something you clean the f'n floor with! I wanted to beat her senseless for her stupidilty. When my friend came home from work and told me, we jumped on the telephone to our facilities corporate compliance hotline and told them the situation. They were terribley shocked, and I think they even suspected we were lying, it was all just so far fetched.
They took care of the situation and contacted the interim medical director and facility administrator and they told the DON definately NO.
When she found out she had been reported, she ran around po'd and harrassing people all day - which she had specifically been told NOT to do. The charge nurse finally narked my friend and I out, because she's afraid of confrontation and when asked she just told. The DON tried to follow my friend around all day and kept saying, "When I give an order, I demand it be done FIRST." She was actually mad that my friend didnt carry out the order first, then report her.
The administrator shadowed her around telling her to knock off the harassment, but i dont think she was officially reprimanded in any way.
She began complaining to me and I told her (I was still mad and had to be a smart ass) that the only way to thourouglly sterilize any object is usually to set it on fire. I asked her if she'd like me to go set the patient on fire real quick for her or if she'd like to do it herself.
I know she wanted to slap me, she was so enraged by that, then I went ahead and added that I wasnt afraid of anything she thought about me or could do to me, and reminded her that only an idiot would make or take such a strupid order and that she should be ashamed of herself. The administrator overhead us and told us both to get back to work immediately. Then he went into her office with her and they talked for a long time. I have no idea what was said, but she went home early. She was back the next day though, like nothing ever happened.
No one at that hospital seems to ever get fired, she quit 4 or 6 months later, but she wasnt fired like she should have been. :( If I had my way she'd have lost her license.

I put on the skates and stood up. But I was standing on her steps, and I lost my balance. I fell, hit my head against her house and knocked myself out.
Uhhh..let me guess; not the smartest thing you've ever done. :crazy:

Jimbo 01-10-2003, 07:51 PM Several years ago, I had to travel to Huntsville, Alabama. I took a jet to Memphis, then had to ride in one of those little, 20 seat turbo prop planes from Memphis to Huntsville (similar in size to the one that crashed in Charlotte the other day).
Shortly after takeoff, we flew right into the middle of a severe thunderstorm. It's bad enough when you're in a large jet, and hit some turbulence, but this was the scariest ride I've ever taken. The plane was tossed all over the place - the plane turned up on its side at one point, then suddenly dropped a couple of hundred feet. The overhead compartments flew open, and stuff was flying all over the cabin. The large jets usually fly between 30,000 and 40,000 feet up, so they can often fly above the storms. The small propeller driven planes only go about 10,000 feet up, so there's no chance to get above a bad storm. They never should have sent a small plane like that up into that kind of weather.
Everybody on that flight was doing some heavy-duty praying that night. I really thought it was the end for me. I have flown a number of times since then, but I refuse to fly on those small planes any more.
White_Daisy 01-10-2003, 07:59 PM My little brother was going trick or treating and I followed him near a house (my parents were driving us around) and a dog lept out of the bushes and chased him back to the car. The dog didn't scare me, but seeing my brother scared did. I raced back to the car and I opened the door for him and let him in first, the dog bit me before I got in the car and I hit my head on the way in. I didn't want to see my little brother hurt....

That was a brave and unselfish thing that you did for your little brother. He's very fortunate to have you for a sister.

Those small turbo props can be unsetttling to fly in even when the weather's good. Kittflynn, I hope you never have the experience of travelling in one during bad weather.
(I was doing a "Fred Sanford" the whole time - "Oh no!!!....this is it!!!.....this is the big one!!!!)

JDS84 01-11-2003, 09:42 PM The other day I thought I was taking my allergy medicine I ended up taking my moms synthroid medicine. It scared me to death but it didn't hurt me.

Barnabas1 01-12-2003, 11:49 AM Well, I was eight, and I was playing in this pit that was 90 feet deep, and I couldn't get out of it. Then, I remember some dog started to drag me up with claws and I FINALLY got away, but at least the dog saved my life.
AllIWantIsYourClutch 01-12-2003, 12:30 PM Well, this isnt the scariest, but it's the first thing that came to my mind.
We were going to a tennis game in this suburban thingy at like...7 am i think. (?) So first we stop at McDonalds and then we got back in the car thing and this one girl goes "Y'all better put your seat belts on cuz if we get in an accident, y'all are getttin' killed." yah so we drive for about 2 minutes and we're driving past this gas station and there was this car pulling out of the parking lot and our coach (who was driving) goes "They're gonna get hit." or something like that, so the car pulls out of the parking lot and slams into the car that was right in front of us and the car went flying like over the lil concrete thingy in the middle of the road. Yea that was scary. Then our coach pulled over and got out and stuff but someone already called the cops. But it coudlda totally been us.
Three'sCompanyrules 04-11-2003, 02:02 AM I had to bring this backup because I just remembered something else that was scary. In the Fall of 1999, I got up that morning and I noticed my neck was hurting real bad, well when I went to lay on the floor to watch football and when I tried to get up I couldn't move and I didn't know what was going on, also that day my grandpa tried calling from the nursing home and I was alone and I couldn't get up to answer it and that was the last time he called before he died a few months later:crying: and we also had a tornado warning later that day, and I couldn't move, so I had to stay upstairs, so later that night I had a massager(not sure on spelling) and by the next day it was all better, but that was scary that I couldn't move at all that day, I ddin't know if something was wrong with me or if it was a one day thing, luckly it was a badly pinched nerve, and nothing worse, but it hurt like heck, and other than the welding incident that was the second most scariest thing that has happened to me.
ur sit'N on my penny 04-11-2003, 03:48 PM probably one of the scariest things that happened to me was when i was in disney world at the contemperary hotel and there is like this arcade and fast food place next to it i was in 4th grade and me and my brother went over to it by ourselves and he asked me if i wood walk over by myself so he cood stay and play games and i was like yea thinkin i knew my way back. and i got lost and was walkin around the place for like a half n hour and then my hamburger and fries got cold and i was scared i was never gonna find my way back and then i finally found out how to get back to my hotel room and my mom made my brother eat my cold hamburger and fries and she took me and my sister to chef mickeys

:lol: Good one!
Let me see... Probably when I was acting in a play called 'Last of the Red Hot Lovers.' Someone set out a prop that wasn't supposed to be out and it made a line I had make *no* sense at all. When I realized the error as I was about to say the line, I completely lost where I was in the script. The actor I was doing the scene with, in turn, lost where he was. So it was just both of us on stage. Alone. Silent.
Let me tell ya. There's nothing scarier than 1000 eyes on you, and not knowing what you're supposed to say. Dead silence. Hot lights beaming down on you. A few coughs in the audience. **shudder**
He went off stage to go find out what the line was from the director. Leaving me completely alone, in front of those 1000 eyes. Ugh. It was probably about a minute, but it felt like forever. My solution to the awkward silence: Picking up the prop bottle of Scotch and downing it and uttering quietly "phew, I am f***ed up.' It got a bunch of laughs, but I'm sure they were laughing at me, and not with me. :o
I can kind of look back and laugh now, but this is still the premise for a lot of my nightmares. I did learn one thing though: When in doubt, quietly drop the F-bomb.
Ewan's My Man 04-11-2003, 10:13 PM The undertow pulled me out in the ocean and the lifeguard hadta save me.
Oh, and once or twice my sister got lost and that scared the crap outta me.
fr00ti 04-11-2003, 10:57 PM The time me and my mom got in a wreck. We started sliding on black ice and skidded into a ditch and a big truck almost ran over us. I thought we were gonna die. Man that scared the crap out of me. Another time was during a hurricane, I dont remember which one it was so freaking scary during the night, and when we woke up there were trees laying everywhere and omg it was scary.
