I think being stranded out in the middle of the ocean is intimidating. Whether a killer shark is after you, maybe the boat or ship is haunted. I've watched the game boy color game, Resident Evil Gaiden, and that game really sets the bar to me as to how scary being in the middle of nowhere in the ocean can be. With packs of zombies on board and a deadly bioweapon as well, with no way out.

War. Having been in the Army, this is now why I'm anti-war. Nobody deserves that. Even if you're a League of Legends fan.

    This sentiment is a lot more common than you think. While it is true there's no atheists in the foxholes, most of us were christians who believed we were going to Hell. Like most of us saw ourselves as the bad guys. It was pretty uncommon for guys there to think they're good in any way.

    We signed up for free college and now we're in Iraq... why? What did Iraq do to us? Why are they the 'bad guys' in any way when we attacked first?

    I'd be terrified of being teleported to a super high, tiny area, like the side of a cliff or the edge of a skyscraper or radio tower something. Any wrong move means you fall to your death, and it's just a matter of time before you get tired enough to lose concentration for a brief second and...

    Respectfully, Fuck. No.

    I need to check my blood pressure after watching the trailer... I'm gonna go lay down. On the floor. In the basement.

    Just the regular bottom of the ocean as a bell diver for me.

    A shipping container in remote Antarctica, with a cake iced with the name of your kidnapper. Sooner or later you gotta eat that cake and the only evidence of who put you in there.

    At the bottom of a flooded cave. Cave-divers can do everything right and still die in a hole.

    Lost in a cave in the dark for me.

    There's not much alive in the middle of the ocean. As in a desert, you're going to starve, dehydrate and die of exposure, but hey! You're not gonna get eaten alive!

    I'm really not sure what place would be scary, but it would be the place where there's no hope whatsoever. I've survived some fucked up shit so my view of "hopeful" is rather wide.

    a noisy room in a hospital and all you can hear is the deafening sound of your child's final gasp for air. and then, nothing.

    I would rather be flayed for eternity in hell than experience that.

    Dumped at an indeterminate location in space.

    Vac suit or no, its a location with no landmarks, no resources, no surfaces... nothing. Can't move, can't be seen, can't call for help, can't survive.

    I guess, the only upside is no sharks. But those micro-meteroid showers would certainly leave a mark punctures through your body. Like a shark.

    Immediately downwind from a wildfire in a dense forest. At the bottom of an elevator shaft, which has no headroom built in when the car descends. Inside an industrial oven or cooking vat that's starting to heat up.

    I dunno, there's a lot of places out there where you would die, and that are big enough to fit you. You just have to pick one where you'd have enough time to be scared, first.

    Trapped upside down in a very tight vertical passage deep inside a cave with no way to get out.

    Stuck fast, upside down in a narrow pass in a cave.

    This is from a real incident, where someone perished. They were an expert caver.

    I can't look up the story or read about it again.

    My heart goes out to that person, their family and friends. Just one of the saddest events.
