What are you afraid of?

My wife hates spiders
My daughter hates spiders

They find them alarming
(it's all about the legs)

But I don't mind them
Spiders are ok

Spiders are useful creatures
keeping down the flies

What scares me?
Snakes and Crocodiles

Snakes and Crocodiles 
and Komodo Dragons

Snakes and Crocodiles
and Komodo Dragons

and Great White Sharks
(it's all about the eyes)
