I would say alligator. You get the shock of getting suddenly attacked, the incredible pain of getting bitten by those powerful jaws and all those teeth, the terror of being dragged into the water, and after all that - you'd slowly bleed out while you drown. And, nothing is scarier than drowning. Except drowning while getting eaten by an alligator.
How say you?
Ants.
Ants won't kill you! Unless you are an infant. I would simply flick them away. Alligators cannot be flicked away my friend.

Gerbil...think about it.
You've never heard one of those stories about a guy who falls out of a tree, breaks his legs, and lands in a fireant mound? I don't remember if he died, but I'd guess he was close.
A woman.

I remember a Western where the injuns buried some guys with only their heads out for the ants to eat their brains. Sounds unpleasant.
I think there's some kind of puffer fish that has a really painful sting
African Army ants will eat anything in their path, including YOU.
What people don’t realize is that there are many different species of the ant community. The most fierce and dangerous being the mighty Army Ants.
Native and most commonly found in South and Central America these tiny predators hide in the deep forest awaiting their next meal. Mostly feasting on a carnivore diet, these ants can eat a wide variety due to their amazing digestive system which can dissolve any living creature. In fact, their eating habits are so amazing that one ant colony can dissolve and eat an entire cow within hours. Army Ants use two front teeth and claws which they use in unison to inject a venom which works as an acid and will dissolve all types of flesh. A favorite tasty treat among this species are wasps and Leaf Cutter Ants.

« The Lion Tailed Macaque ReportThe Future of the Chimp »Army Ants vary in size but remain roughly between 8 and 12 millimeters in length. Their color is typically a light brown, but have been reported to also resemble a red tint. This species of ant is incredibly intelligent and can move very quickly.
These ants are mostly found living underground or up in trees. This is their safest way to avoid being stepped on, which is most commonly the death to many of these creatures. However, as many of these ants get trampled, it is highly unlikely for them to grow extinct. In just one colony there will be an average of 5,000 to 18,500 ants. A single queen can lay anywhere from 100,000 to 300,000 eggs. Most Army Ants will have a lifespan of 3 to 13 months.
The queen in an Army Ant colony is much like that of other ant species. They have one wingless queen who’s life consists of mating and laying eggs. Contrary to popular belief that the only female in a colony is the queen, there are many blind female workers in the group. The rest consists of male soldiers known as Eciton burchelli. The soldiers are a whopping one to two inches long! They have a very important role in their group which consists of protecting the queen, killing and gathering food, and forming attacks on enemy colonies. Soldiers are born with very large mandibles which they use to kill, carry large objects, and to dig. The mandibles are so huge for their body size that they cannot feed themselves. The soldiers rely on the team effort of the worker ants to help feed them.
If you are ever in a known territory for Army Ants, please take extreme caution. These ants will attack any living creature they feel is a threat – and yes, that means you too! If you step on a nest, or fall asleep near a nest you are likely to become their next prey. The soldiers attack in extremely large groups, covering their meal completely as they begin to cut the flesh into tiny pieces. As savage creatures they leave the organs in place, causing whatever they kill to be torn apart while still alive – ouch. So be sure to watch your step or you may become their next feast!
go to south america. army ants will eat you alive (that is, until you die) in a matter of minutes.
Why would they do that? I have no quarrel with those ants.
A chipmunk. Not only would it take a really, really long time but it's pretty ignominious.

Getting eaten by a snake would not be too much fun.
I'd just like to say, this is why I love letsrun.
Great White Shark.
An alligator would bite you, clamp down, and thrash you around. Painful, but you'd probably break your neck from the whiplash and die before any real pain happens.
A shark, would come up at you, from underneath, chomping down on a piece of your legs or torso, completely tearing away that portion of your body. It would be totally severed. You would then be bleeding, struggling to stay afloat, as the beast circles and repeats until you are swallowed whole (probably after about 3 bites).
I have many nightmares of being alone in the open ocean, knowing that a huge shark is underneath, charging up to bite me. Scariest thing ever.
You make a strong point. Watch "Open Water" and you won't sleep for months
