Are you scared of anything? have you ever over come a fear/phobia?

I ask this as I am petrified of frogs all shapes and sizes, Luckily dont see them very often but when I do I nearly cack my pants and my heart races a million beats. As has just happened whilst I was doing a spot of gardening and one was sitting under the shrub I was about to pull out.

Its a ridiculous fear and I have no idea why I am scared of them.

So do you have any? ridiculous or normal fears?
 
Spiders and heights. But neither are so debilitating that I can't deal with them when I need to.
 
I over came a fear of heights thanks to work.

Have a ridiculously strong fear of flying insects. Like anything, even butterflies.
 
I'm scared of spiders, but only some types (house spiders mainly), and not to a ridiculous extent.

I mowed the face off a frog when cutting the grass last summer. I felt terrible about it :(
 
I've always been uncannily calm in fearful situations. Others around me have been curled up in fear and I just sit there, my heart not skipping a beat. I think I might be a sociopath as my emotions in bad situations never kick in. I'm just clam. If I am a sociopath, I'm not the bad kind as I wish no ill on people. I just don't get scared by anything or anyone.
 
+1 for wasps. Would easily leave a giant me-shaped hole in any wall.

London underground - but I think that's a mixture of disgust too!

And I used to have a weird fear of the little green wart things growing from potato's :D
