    The internet going offline forever, can't get much worse than that for a webmaster. On the other hand, it may be the best thing, at least they'd have a chance of getting laid.

    Having millions of clients on hundreds of servers in some racks and having that burnt down including the back-up servers :)

    But like the rest; some bad thing happening to the service you are providing making it unavailable to your clients.

    Having the Tax Man seize, close down and lock up all servers because of back taxes owed from the former building occupant. A total nightmare!

    Losing data or problems with a host. Could have really bad outcomes.

    Losing all my sites data and it not being my fault. If it's my fault then I can [eventually] forgive myself, but if it was a hosting company effing up then I'd go nucking futz.

    in general ...

    1 - to have a good site in SERPs and your position to be hacked

    2 - the hosting offline more than 12 hours with no back'ups

    3 - someone to steal ( transfer ) your main domain and the provider to tell you "is not our responsability if your account was hacked"

    a little surrealistic ...

    1 - pay taxes to your country if you own a domain or more on the internet, pay taxes to your country if you want to sell a domain

    2 - to be illegal to own a site / domain if you are a private person ( individual )

    Having a hack group find that you have a loophole in your programming and then they kill your site when no backup is available.
