Fear of Flying
 
Frankie Boyle never flies anywhere now as he is scared of dying.


How is your fear of flying?

He's scared of dying as he knows he's going to hell for all the **** he pulled

AnnieK 10-12-2014 05:27 AM

I hate flying.....really hate it but I would never let the fear stop me. I find a couple of drinks and a Valium help. My brother is a long haul pilot for BA and he tells me how safe flying is (and also some horror stories) but I just hate it

Kazanne 10-12-2014 05:39 AM

I love flying,my fave way to travel,although the odd thought of crashing has crossed my mind,but ,it's usually just a fleeting thing thankfully.

Like Kaz, I adore flying, but I won't fly when it's raining because I don't want to get my wings wet or my halo tarnished. :joker:

yes, for all those people he killed:hehe:

don't you have a fear of spiders?

GypsyGoth 10-12-2014 07:22 AM

I get more excited about flying than fearful. Even when there is turbulence I still feel very safe. I get far more anxious when I'm in a car, sometimes even if they're a good driver I start to become afraid.

I've never seen one from a plane and I didn't know that. :spin:

I've always liked flying. Now I do it quite a lot it's just like any other kind of commute really. I never think about crashing my car or my train crashing, likewise I hardly ever think of the plane going down or some other disaster. The only time I ever think about something bad happening is when I fly El Al because they're so paranoid.

I have no fear at all of flying but I hate the feeling in your head and ears when you fly

Crimson Dynamo 11-12-2014 09:05 AM

I once went up in an aircraft but did not land in that aircraft

Was it amazing? I always wanted to do one but the older I get the more of a wuss I'm becoming. I think I could manage a tandem jump, if the instructor literally pushed us out :laugh:

made me chuckle...

i was in Newark Airport last year (for people who dont know, this is literally just outside NYC) and we were literally on the runway about to take off and a muslim guy got up and walked down the aisle like 'my bag! my bag! i need my bag!'

he had to get escorted down the aisle by 3 cabin crew ladies...

safe to say i absolutely shat myself

i'd have been scared if it had been anyone, but the fact we were so close to new york made my mind go into overdrive

I would not do it now. It was in a rickety old plane and i had to like climb out on the fecking wing and then jump backwards, heaven knows what i was thinking.

You dont half land with a thump, its not like you see when the guys pull 2 cords and glide to a gentle landing. It was bang crash thud.


:worry:

Oh God, I don't think I could do that :shocked:

I'm flying next week and I'm already feeling uneasy. I try not to think about it and am usually fine when up in the air (and wined up) but the nerves always get me beforehand :worry: Especially moreso hearing about all the aviation accidents

Greg! 08-06-2017 07:34 AM

Flying is by far the safest form of travel! There are 100s of car crashes every day but you don't see them on the news

Vanessa 08-06-2017 07:36 AM

I love flying. I fly many times a year and i love it. It's so quick and easy :hee:
