I know everyone has stories. How about something scary? Mine starts like this:

I was stationed at Dharhan Saudi Arabia during Desert Shield and while cruising the flightline one night, got a call about a gas turbine gnerator set (-60) They were asking some strange questions about power supply and how hot the exhaust got....I thought I should check it out. As I approached the small workshop, people came running out. It would later be revealed that a supervisor was showing a FNG a shortcut on a test.......on a sidewinder missile and armed it on the bench. Now, with power applied and a gas turbine engine not 20 feet away, this thing is armed. Talk about a show stopper. Luckily, they were able to disarm it and everything turned out well. Lucky me.........I get all the good calls.

One of many.......anyone else?
 
If it doesn't have to be military related then sure. As we pulled into the driveway my mom pushed the button for the garage to open. Pulled in and all that good stuff. When we got up stairs my mom found a note from the deck people. We hired some guys to come out and build a deck for us. And my dad showed them where our gas line was and that it wasn't far under the ground. Anyway, the note read "Ma'am, we are so sorry but have cut your gas line." :? So nice of them to call and tell us instead of leaving a note. So we called the gas company and they sent out a guy. He turned on his little thingamabob and it went crazy. He said "Ma'am, do you realize that when you pushed that button to open your garage. You could have blown up the entire neighbor hood?" (Now that would have been impressive. Well for those who saw it and lived)
 
Well I was in my backyard just a few days ago, shooting my pellet gun and it sounds like someone is walking in my back gate. I check to see who it is and it was some crazy guy :shock:. He looked confused I dont know if he was crazy but it scared me. So I pointed my gun at him. "Don't shoot" Is what I think he said but he had a heavy mexican accent and it was hard to tell. I wasn't gonna shoot him or anything so he ran away. So ya it was scary at the moment.
 
My scared story:

In KFOR 1999 in Prizren/Kosovo i was guard at the main gate of our HQ.

There always vehicles (civilian, military, UN) driving in and out. On this day, in December 1999, some childs ran towards our gate, holding hand grenades in the hands...

The child's found them somewhere (maybe in a yugoslavian depot) and wanted to give us these hand granades....

I stod at the door and sayd "Stoooooooooopppppp..... dont move..." and didnt know how to react.

If a adult with a hand - grenade in the hand moving towards the gate, i would kill him directly. But what you do, if a child does it ? It does not know what it's doing.

But this albanian childs dont understand english or german. They had this granades in the hand and thought they doing something good if they deliver this ammunition to us. The problem was, that we dont knew, in wich state the grenades are. Are there hot or secured ?

Finally a interpreter solved the problem, ordered them to put the grenades on the ground and to run away ASAP.
 
Lost in Skopie/Macedonia.

Lost in Skopie/Macedonia.

KFOR'99. Kosovo is occupied by NATO Forces. Macedonia is the base of the NATO-Operations. But there was one problem. In a traffic acciedent with a american Humvee died a popular macedonian politican. The Macedonians hated KFOR from this time forward.

Our mission was to deliver a vehicle (Mercedes Benz Wolf) to a garage in Skopie and return into Kosovo. We delivered the vehicle at 17:00. We must be at the Kosovo-Border at 18:00, because there is a convoy awaiting us. In this time it was prohibited to move in Kosovo wihout armed escort.

Ok, we started at the garage and moved through the streets of Skopie. Everywhere we stopped on red light or something else the civilians throwed stones on our car. It was very scary, because were are alone here. Our comrades are far away in Kosovo. When the civilians saw the "KFOR" sign on a vehicle, they started aggression.

Then we lost orientation, moved through the suburbs. I said to the driver: "Stop the car, I will ask someone where to go. I can speak russian.". But he was in panic. He said: "No. If we stop here, we will be lynched.". So we drived through whole Skopie, until we reached the highway to north, which lead us to the border to Kosovo.

Finally we arrived at the Kosovo-border at 22:00, waited for the next convoy until 23:00 and arrived at the base around 01:30.
 
well, on a school trip to Washington DC i bought a black hat that says C.I.A., and i would wear it all the time. anyways, i was in a McDonalds, and im walking up to the counter to order, and this old guy is staring at me, he looked like he was crazy, and he just kept staring at me. i think it was because of the hat, but im not sure. it was scary.

another one was when i was out on our trampoline in the middle of the night with my brother and my "sister" and one of her friends. anyways, we're out their talking, and then my "sister" hears footsteps, and she says its her stalker. and shes like freaking out about it, i guess it was scary for her, but i was laughing becuase i didnt hear any footsteps, and neither did anyone else, it was pretty funny for us but scary for her.
 
i once went to the hairdressers to get my hair cut and she dyed it red...... im blonde :shock: lol just jokin
those are some pretty scarey stories, only thing that happened to me was when i was coming back from the us a few years back one of the engines blew on our plane and we had to make an emergency landing. And another time i was diving and my chute didnt open so i had to use my reserve. i nearly wet myself that time :)
