Rabies has always been one of my biggest fears because it's just so horrible all around.

Then I won't link to the video that scared the shit out of me.

It was a medical film documenting an outbreak in Iran. From the look of the quality and the voice over, it looked to be quite old. And then, to add insult to infection, whoever put the damn thing up on the internet laid in some creepy background music.

Your fear is well deserved.

Oh, I've seen the clinical videos of patients succumbing to it and it looked every bit as bad as I imagined it would be. The fact that a virus like that exists is just horribly disturbing.
