What is the scariest thing you ever done/experienced?

My first two experiences were:

Almost got hit by a car- litterally missed me by an inch.

I swam next to a giant ass shark!
Wild.
By myself.
Far off from the shore.

I swam out into the ocean at 2am in the summer of 04. Tide pulled me out quickly. I was floating ng in the black waters when a shark bumped my toe. I held still, terrified, a few moments and swam for shore. Took everything I had. Lay in the surf with every muscle twitching.

Coming off psych meds in 2012 was the most terrifying however. Didn't sleep for 12 days

@DanielChristensen Yeah, those psych meds are ridiculous. I was prescribed some before stuck with it for something like 5 years. When I quit cold turkey the withdrawal was terrible! :/
