What do you fear?

[Book Smarts]

Don't know anything supernatural so I can't be afraid of it

Don't know anything supernatural so I can't be afraid of it 

The bridge... Dogs jump off of it all the time. And they keep jumping off it until..... And no one knows why.

Could be possible that something big has been marking their territory on that bridge

People've witnessed dogs that actually make it down. The dog will actually climb back up, walk back onto the bridge, and then jump off again. They'll do it over and over until they can't anymore.

I've experienced so many "happenings" I'm not even scared of it anymore

Or it could be a delicious mink they keep smelling

That makes little sense, and it doesn't make it any less creepy. It may not actually be paranormal, but it's still sad and creepy, and it confuses a lot of people.

What if one dog smelled something, another dog smelled him, etc. etc.?

[Chishio Kunrin]

I... I don't know. Dogs usually stand there and sniff until they're satisfied, don't they? That's my experience with walking a dog. Those dogs must be insane if they're going "Hey, I smell a dog here. He went this way. *Leaps off the bridge* Owww! Let's try that again because I don't see him here. *Crawls back up and leaps off* Owwww! Let's try that again."

If it was supernatural, wouldn't the dog just be barking; maybe running away with its tail low?

((I piece to together what I know))

[Sea Foam]

After some - by some I mean a quick Google search and a click on one of the first, most believable looking links - research, I found this explanation:

A dog does not fully comprehend the nature of a bridge.  If it cannot see what is on the other side of the railing (solid stone in this instance), it will assume that what it sees is a wall, and that the ground on the other side of the wall would be level with the bridge surface.  If something attractive to the dog (a sound or scent) is on the other side, there is a risk the dog will leap over the edge to investigate.  In the case of Overtoun Bridge the lure may have been the scent of mink, but the same basic principle could apply anywhere in the world.

Source:  I would put the source, but the link uses a term that the rules of the forum isn't all too fond of, so google: bridge that dogs jump off. It should be the second one, if you really care at all about the credibility of my source.

I'm not proving/disproving anything, I could care less really, this is just some half hearted, 1AM explanation. Also I may as well throw out that this is getting just a wee bit off topic.

I fear accidentally killing the spiders that inhabit my bathroom. No, I'm not really sure why.

And I really fear the last 15 seconds of this otherwise fantastic video:

That's horrifying, in a comforting way. 


I'm fear my incense catching the house on fire.

I now fear after my all night terror horror film extravaganza... The Blob coming thru my shower head when I'm taking a shower

*Ahem*   I fear dolls!

Baby dolls! I never liked them as a kid, and then I saw commercials for Chuckie, and from then on, I was like "No baby dolls!"

(Still, those dogs must be a bit dumb insane, since it's said they'll climb back up onto the bridge and then jump again and keep doing it until...
"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.")

[Edit]:
I just killed a really creepy spider. It was kinda white-ish, and it had long legs, and it kept waving its front legs around while climbing. It was so creepy.
