    My most frightening experience occured about 12 years as I was driving in a safari park with wild animals like tigers around. There was suddenly a very loud explosion under the bonnet and that really frightened me and my two passengers, if there is to be a fire what do we do with tigers outside?

    Fortunately it soon became clear that there was no fire only a lot steam came gushing out, the cooling system had over heated and a pipe got burst asunder

    Eventually the guards got us out and later the car rescue services that I was a member of recovered the car and took us home to London. As we were going home the rescue guy said this was the most unusual and awkward breakdown case he came across in eight years of service. For my two passenger girls it was also their worst nightmare situation.

    Did any of you have any frightening experiences?

    Yes. Finding out who really controls the WTBTS/JW's freaked me out.

    When I was a Cocktail Waitress at a Restaurant and I was heading to my car after work. 3 guys would not let me by. I was nice at first since they were customers and they were drunk. However, it got to a point where they were blocking me from my car and letting me get in. They held me down on my car and started to want to do more.(you know what I mean)

    Well I was nice as I could be until that Moment! I took my keys and poked a guy in his cookies with it. Kneed the other and pushed the other away and punched him and gave him a black eye.(as I was told later) As I did this the cooks ran out to get me and looked around and had nothing to do but take the guys away. I can take care of myself!

    I'll tell you mine if you promise not to laugh.

    I was walking to work a young girl of 17. I heard these footsteps behind me getting closer. Then I heard this heavy breathing getting closer. I thought oh no this is it I'm going to be attacked. I braced myself. Just as it was right next to me I saw it was just a man walking his huge dog, (it was the dog doing the heavy breathing).

    Boy was I relieved. Good thing it was just a dog too because I couldn't remember if the WTBS said I had to scream or I didn't have to scream.

    While cutting down trees in Montana in 1975 I became tangled in a barbed wire fence as a very large spruce was falling toward my head. The branches stopped the tree about one foot above my face. The tree had to be cut up before I could get out from under it. I suffered one small scratch on my arm.

    Two years later at four o'clock in the morning on the way to Las Vegas, Nevada myself and two friends skidded our pick-up to a screeching halt at a police roadblock. The driver was partially deaf and only heard their third warning for us to stop the vehicle and come out with our hands up. Three officers pointed rifles at us from the front while another officer drew a bead on us from the right and a very nervous officer cautiously walked up behind us shaking so badly I could see his rifle bob up and down in the tail lights. An officer approached from the left with a drawn pistol and said that a convict had escaped from the Arizona State Pen, he was armed and dangerous and heading their way. He said if we had not stopped when we did he would have ordered all six officers to open fire.
