Pictures That Will Make Your Stomach Do A Belly Flop
Isn't being freaked out over something kind of neat? When you think of it, it's one of our most basic instincts kicking in, trying to look out for us because something bad is about to go down.
I don't know about you, but dropping my AirPods into a garbage disposal or taking a selfie on top of a sky scrapper are definitely going to leave me with weak knees, but somehow, people captured those exact moments.
Yeah, No Thanks
This seems like a nightmare that is happening before you even fall asleep. How could you ever relax? If you're a restless sleeper, this is going to end very poorly if you try and roll on your side.
This Is Terrible
It's like the entrance to an escape room where the first thing you do is drop your keys and then spend the remaining hour mad at yourself and whoever put that grate there.
Is There An Elevator?
I know that things were different at earlier points in history, but I refuse to believe that there was a time when this wouldn't have been terrifying. Look how far down it goes!

Imagine coming down into your basement and your window is about to explode open with dirty rainwater? While it does look pretty neat, I'd be worried about what might swim up to the window.
Looks Like Something Out Of A Stephen King Novel
Weather is very unpredictable, which makes it pretty terrifying. At this point, you'd just have to go hide somewhere and hope for the best because the weather is about to get out of control.

Jacob's Well is one of the scariest places ever. Looking over the edge of an underwater cliff and not being able to see the bottom is what nightmares are made of.

This brave hero is working hard so that we may all have cell phone reception. While it's true that all heroes don't wear capes, we can hope that this hero is very securely tied to that tower.

This research scientist was on his way to visit a hibernating bear to change the batteries in its transmitter, only to realize that his furry friend hadn't been able to fall asleep quite yet.
What A Fun First Date
This takes 'til death do we part' to a whole new level. This is absolute insanity. No selfie is worth potentially becoming a pancake. How did they even get up there?! Where are their parents??
Um, Nope
This is a Cofferdam. They're watertight enclosers that are temporarily built to allow workers to do work below the waterline, like when they're building a bridge or repairing a ship.
Just A Relaxing Stroll Along The Beach
Whoever decided it was a good idea to go for a stroll on the beach during the middle of a lightning storm is a fool! That would be unbelievably loud and scary.
It's Just A Bit Foggy
Does this bridge even go anywhere? Has anyone gone there and come back to confirm? It's like a scene from a fantasy movie where they make a grim discovery on the other side, but not without someone almost falling through halfway across the bridge.
It's Like A Ghost
This ship is half sunk somewhere in the Black Sea. It's very spooky and coming out of a fog to see that staring back at you would be more than unsettling.

This tanker started pulling up its anchor only to find that it had snagged an unexploded torpedo. Apparently, depending on where you are in the ocean, this is a pretty common occurrence.

That is going to fall down at any minute and when it stops working, the IT department better not ask if we tried unplugging it and plugging it back in to make it work again.

This doesn't have to end badly, we just have to remain calm. This wouldn't have happened if this person would have stuck to normal headphones like the rest of us, just saying.

How do you go about getting back from there? I'm so clumsy and uncoordinated that crawling back up that little bit of rock would just never be in the cards for me.

This construction crew found a skeleton while doing some excavating. It happens fairly often, especially in places that have a long history of human inhabitants. There have also been cases of long lost Halloween decorations, but this looks more serious than that.
This Doesn't Look Real
These ice shards on Lake Michigan look super spooky. Deep water is already terrifying, we don't need it to be spiky as well. I bet that this sounds as terrifying as it looks.

Spiders, while necessary to their ecosystems, are gross and scary and if I came home and thought a giant spider was in my house, I would sell the house and probably never come back.
Who Let This Kid Out Of The House?
My soul would literally leave my body if I saw this. I've watched way too many 'documentaries' about ghosts and exorcisms to be cool with this. What could possibly be on his mind?
This Isn't Freaky At All
The mouth of this volcano looks like it's swallowing souls into the underworld. It's neat how our brains can just jump to those conclusions, like when we spot certain figures in the clouds above us.
Well, This Has Been Very Helpful
Hopefully, whoever wrote this super helpful note is the only person who gets stuck in the emergency that would call for an evacuation map. The 'good luck' should go without saying.
Let's Just Avoid The Ocean All Together
The ocean will always be bigger and scarier than we are, so I think it's time we just give the ocean its space and stick to trains, planes, and automobiles.

Has no one else seen any of the Final Destination movies? This is how people tragically die on the highway. Hopefully, they don't have far to go, and no one drives behind them.

Wait, I Don't Have A Cat
Cats are pretty great, but that doesn't mean it would be great to find one in your house if you didn't own one! That plastic bag looks so much like a cat that it made the people who lived there sure there was one sitting on their table.
Not The Donut!
I can't imagine how scary it would have been to have a donut snatched out of your hand while you were trying to take an aesthetic picture with the fair in the background.

Talk About Terrifying
Don't worry, this person was totally OK, in fact, they were the ones who got out of the car to take the picture. They drove right through that telephone pole and just left it hanging there.
That Is One Big Buffalo
This is why it's important to drive with the high beams on. You never know who you're going to run into in the middle of the night, especially if you're driving through a park.
