Fear isn’t rare—we all have things we’re scared of, whether that’s heights (hey!), spiders, open water, snakes, or, well, anything and everything. A phobia you may have heard a little less about is megalophobia, the fear of large objects like skyscrapers, yachts, planes, big animals, etc. Though someone’s fears are no joke, big things tend to be very impressive, whether we’re talking about architecture, engineering, or nature.
That’s where the ‘Megalophobia’ online community comes in. Its members share incredible photos of gigantic objects that are definitely imposing. We’ve collected some of their newest images to share with you. Scroll down to check them out. It’s a reminder about how small human beings actually are in some contexts.
Bored Panda reached out to u/Hoogs, the head moderator who runs the 'Megalophobia' group, and he was kind enough to answer our questions about the community and the phobia. You'll find our interview with him below.
