What makes pits so terrifying?

>>19203139
Fear of unknown

Dark down der

What lies at the bottom, also no way to get out

Falling. Instinctively you suppose that it could be deep enough to kill you. At worst you'll be in complete dark and defenseless.

no, at worst you'll be stuck with no way to get out. Forced to live the rest of your life down a pit, slowly starving with no real way of ending your own life.

>>19203139
The fact of fall in it

>>19203139
the people that were genetically inclined to not fear pits all fell down them and died off

Bite and sharpen your nail and slit ur wrist?.... That'd probably suck a lot though.

if you fell down it with clothes you'd assume you'd have a phone or car keys or wallet or something to aid in escape/suicide

if you didnt, id just rip my teeth out and use it to slit wrists or make myself choke

>>19203139
the fear of not coming out again and get stucked forever

how long do you think deep dark holes have existed?

how long do you think sink holes have existed?

I imagine creatures have been falling in them for ages and the on lookers surrounding never saw them again

is that what you want to hear?
