12 Weird Phobias That Actually Exist

Fear is a reasonable reaction to a lot of things in life. It's useful. When you feel threatened, it's fight or flight, and flight sure keeps you alive. And overcoming your fears is a part of life. Everybody faces down something they fear eventually, or they get stopped in their tracks. You can't let fear keep you from moving forward and living your life.

However, not all fear is rational. Some people out there have downright strange fears. You just can't explain them. It's not like a fear of falling from great heights or a fear of axe-murdering psychos. Lots of people avoid those. But how many of us fear the things on this list?
