5. I'm walking along the driveway one day, and my dog suddenly catches a whiff of something, and runs off into the woods. A few seconds later, 2 whitetail deer hightail it out of the woods, My dog in hot pursuit.

4. I'm walking down to the lake, and In the corner of my eye I see what looks like a branch. I get closer, and it bolts off into the woods, and I nearly jump out of skin.

3. Years ago, when I was not but 4 or 5, I was outside helping my brother with the Silky chickens we had, and there was a Great horned owl watching us. Probably craving some chicken.

2. When I shot my first deer (Say what you may, but deer ARE overpopulated, and this wasn't just for sport, we used its meat and everything)

1 I was walking back from my aunts house when, suddenly out of the woods, comes a coyote, that chases one of my old dogs (Who is unfortunately no longer with us), and then my other, bigger dog begins chasing the coyote. It scared the ever living crap out of me

5. Riding my bike on an uneven ground with high speed and having some insect smash on my forehead and fall into my eye. No humans were harmed in the incident, not really sure about the insects though.

4. Meeting a viper during a treep into mountains.

3. My friends and I casually taking a trip to the forest nearby and unwillingly approaching a wild boar. Definetly was hm... 'exciting' to retreat when the animal clearly showed displease in our presence.

2. Sparrowhark flying through the roses in my garden, snatching one of the sparrows and flying out of the roses without a scratch. The sparrows didn't even bother to panic and fly away.

1. Casually walking the fields when infront of me, just before I was about to take a step a deafening explosion of pheasant cries and feathers and wings flapping WHY, NATURE ;_;

Oh, yes that is...annoying, at least. Happens a lot to me when going to school (we have to go through some kind of forest). A friend of mine fell of his bike when the pheasant scared him xD

@Arrancar - almost stepped. It literally exploded from where I was about to place my foot. Catching balance then wasn't easy :P
