Whether it's creepy clowns at a circus, a spider crawling its way up the wall, or vicious storms and thunder, we all have fears that make our skin crawl.

When Nik Wallenda announced his latest plans for a daring tightrope walk Friday morning, the TODAY anchors shuddered at thought of looking down from a tightrope between two skyscrapers.

This got the team thinking — what are their biggest fears? Here's what they had to say:

Matt: Lightning

"If there's a lightning storm now, I'm okay," Matt said. "But if I'm on the golf course, not good. If I'm out fishing on the water, not good at all."

Tamron: Being tickled

Dylan: Roller coasters 

Carson: Being buried alive

Natalie: Clowns

Natalie was forced to face her fear during The Take last week, when a clown was dropped from the ceiling unexpectedly.
