#13: You Have to Kiss a Lot of Frogs…
You may think that these little croaking green creatures are harmless and possibly even adorable, but the king of soccer firmly disagrees. David Beckham has an intense fear of frogs, which he opened up about during a BBC interview in 2014. It took a lot of courage to admit such a thing publicly.
Poor David didn’t get much support from interviewer Michael Palin, who took it as far as mocking the revelation and calling David a wimp for such a weird phobia. However, fear of frogs is a legitimate phobia called ranidaphobia. Too bad the reason for the interview was to promote his new project, a documentary where he visited the rainforest.
