It was the first time I traveled alone, but I was not scared.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
So in some ways my life, my background has been isolating and I think I'm a bit more scared as a person. I don't walk alone or in the dark. If I go out the driver will wait for me to go into the house.
I was not scared at all.
From nine years old, I lived with fear. I saw our neighbours disappearing. I was scared that I would come home from school and my parents would not be there.
I was a bit of a loner as a teenager. I never went to a single social event, because they terrified me.
The most scared I'd ever been was the first time I sang at a rugby match, Australia versus New Zealand, in front of one hundred thousand people. I had a panic attack the night before because people have been booed off and never worked again... just singing one song, the national anthem.
The only time I had what you would call life-threatening fear was when I was on the Moon. Towards the end of our stay, we got excited and we were going to do the high jump, and I jumped and fell over backwards. That was a scary time, because if the backpack got broken, I would have had it. But everything held together.
I get really frightened easily.
I had a fear of being alone.
I've traveled the world and been about everywhere you can imagine. There's not anything I'm scared of except my wife.
I was really scared to stay home alone when I was kid, and I would freak out whenever there was a noise after my parents left.
