What were you afraid of when you were young?

Man, I still can't watch the blueberry scene in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory without fidgeting, and finally leaving the room. That scene terrified me as a kid.

"We had survived to turn on the History Channel
And ask our esteemed panel, Why are we alive? And here's how they replied:
You're what happens when two substances collide
And by all accounts you really should have died."
-Andrew Bird
