The 15 Most Common Phobias 

Have you ever wondered what the most common phobias are? Do you frequently suffer from an irrational fear? A fear that has outkicked its coverage and consumes your life is no longer a fear - it is a phobia. From arachnophobia to claustrophobia, I break down it all - special for you. Watch as I count down the top 15 most common fears that affect people worldwide. Don't forget to like, comment an idea for the next elaboration, and subscribe for more electric content.
If you were curious of the basis of the data percentages, here is an explanation:
Given the expansive population, difference in region, difference in age groups, difference in gender, even the intensity of the fear - the margin of error for phobias is large. If you google them yourself you will see a large range of percentages. Therefore for statistical consistently, I thoroughly searched to acquire the highest and lowest reported bounds of these phobias found through given surveys and research and averaged the range. For example - Acrophobia was reported at most as 6% and at least 3% so the presentation in the video was 4.5%. This allowed for the most reasonable estimation and standardization of the data without severe extrapolation.
