Mr. X-File
I know someone who is so very scared of cockroaches, I think a lot of people are. But the look on their faces amuses me especially when people jump around and scream over a little tiny insect which, when you think about it, are totally non-venomous, INNOCUOUS and lacking the ability to kill. Anyway, since there are a big number of people out there who aren't possible winners of fear factor, it somehow became normal. I mean, there's no great mystery about their entomophobia since we see it all around. What this guy is so weird about is not his excessive fear of cockroaches, but his fear of centrifugal force. How weird is that? I think he's the only one in the world like that. I googled fear of centrifugal force but couldn't find the phobia word. Meaning, he is an x-file.
