Hahaha!!! You would love The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Murakami. Really up your alley.

Perhaps at some level that's true, but some people have expressed specific fears that I just don't share. Drowning, for for example, is something I've come close to on several occasions, but it is not even close to being a fear. I'd actually prefer drowning to most other ways of dying.

+1, having talked to two people that were recusitated? after having been drowned it seems that after the panick subsides its a peacefull way to go. You sort of "zone out" as it were...

At the age of 12 I found myself caught in an undertow. I stuggled for the longest time ... then finally surrendered to the thought I would die. I have never had a more peaceful moment in my life. I really can't describe it.

About that time I popped up on the surface. The peace was over.

EDIT: This is not to suggest that I was disappointed to have survived.

My greatest fear is being out surfing and finding myself surrounded by jellyfish: in hot weather they tend to come inland en masse. They seriously scare me and I can't think of anything worse than being surrounded by them with no way out.
