Non-existence doesn't frighten me particularly. Death, or rather the dying itself, frightens me.

I agree. I've always maintained that I wanna go in my sleep.

To parallel that, when asked if I'm afraid of heights, I say, "No, I'm not. I'm afraid of falling from them."

Falling isn't so bad. The sudden stop might be a bit of a bugger though.
