I've been bitten very few times in my life, and none of them were particularly serious. Been scared half-to-death by spiders regularly, including a particularly memorable incident where I had to drive home with a huntsman on the top of the headrest, but rarely bitten. The worst bite (it wasn't that bad, truth be told) was when I was young, by one of these guys:

When I was a kid, I used to catch those big garden spiders in my bare hands, put them into jars and watch them a bit, and then release them. I did the same with bees, and I never once got bitten or stung.

I did get stung on the tongue once by a wasp. I thought I was going to die.
