i used to be terrified of many things when i was a kid, i actually liked being scared of things, i had a friend who was afraid of things with me.
the most ridiculous one is probably dogs, i was terrified of dogs and i never had a bad experience with one (well, a friend in school got bitten by a dog in the face and has a permanent scar from it); now i think they are one of the funniest creatures in the world, hilarious, but i do sometimes get nervous/startled by them.
nothing really irrational, but i get panic attacks with rats. my number one phobia used to be spiders but it has climbed down the charts for me in years, i even would not kill them if i saw them until one fucker bit me in my sleep, that was not cool.
