I actually embrace heights I go bungee jumping, sky diving and base jumping, and I love sharks I even went white shark diving in california but I'm terrified of snakes.

Is is fear of being unprepared? Or fear of not having a plan? Because I've heard many closing arguments that are largely improvisation and frankly, inspired. Remember: it's not what you're prepared to do, or even what you plan to do - It's what you actually do that matters.

Not much any more. Used to be fearful of cars running me over after the last crash, head-on with a moving car.
 
Spiders, scorpions or basically any insect larger than a fingernail.

It's why I basically have no interest in going to any (sub-) tropical countries. At the first sign of anything that creeps or crawls I would likely just run back to the hotel, lock myself in the bathroom and cry softly to myself until my flight back.
