I'm just sitting here watching the news, PFing, and thinking about this hurricane and the many folks enduring the night in Florida.
I guess for me, a few stunts on motorcycles and in cars, along with a 7.0 and a 7.1 earthquake make for some of my most terrifying moments. Sometimes the fear reaction doesn't really set in until after the fact, but you still know when life has gotten dreadfully serious. I must say...it's very strange to say it this way, but a few of my fondest, or at least most treasured memories involve life threatening situations. Others were certainly no fun at all. I guess the most terrifying was a near fall from the top of Feather Falls, in northern California - a 600+ foot drop. It was a very close call - inches from going all the way down.
