Fact. That's what makes it class V. You are much more likely to die on class V than class III, or even class IV.
Fear isn't a bad thing, I don't think. At least up to a point, it's a positive reminder of what is at stake.

Why do you *need* to swallow your fear? It's there for a reason, learn to deal with it!
