So you think you understand the fallibilities of the human mind?  You're not out of the woods yet.  The universe is a dangerous place. Whoever said: ‘you have nothing to fear but fear itself', obviously hadn't taken deadly pandemics, super-volcanoes, gamma ray bursts, and of course the vacuum metastability event into account.  If you've been worrying about your five-a-day intake recently, you don't know what worrying is.  Not even the awesome power of a hi-viz-jacket can save you from most of the cataclysmic events that lie in wait .  We run down some of the most popular ways the world will end. If someone tells you to ‘cheer up it might never happen', then they should come to this.
