I would agree. Also people hitting you from behind. Also not being in ski-gabber.

Mine is that the volcano is going to erupt and I'm going to have to ski down really fast to beat the liquid hot magma.

to OP
that happened to me when I broke my femur I was laying on the ground at the bottom of the landing and kids were still hitting the jump because they didn't know what happened. I had to get other kids who saw me to hike up and tell people not to hit the jump

Jumping off of a pillow and losing a ski on top of it, then I can't climb back up it.  That shit seriously freaks me the fuck out.  Then once I fell right above a 10ft. drop or so and couldn't get up so I just had my friend push me off.

getting stuck in a tree well by myself.

or, one time when i was riding someone near me wasn't paying attention, cut across the trail and his shoulder nailed me in the side of the head. That scared me pretty bad.

I think my biggest fear is my ipod battery dying early on an epic day. That's the worst. No music = fucking up my chi.

Unintentionally going off axis on ANY jump. Even small ones because you always end up landing straight on your side and those are the worst.
