As the title says.
For me it was when I was standing on top of a dam and looked down at the river below and I could feel the force of the river hitting the dam.
That made my heart race like crazy, this was about four years ago, and I still can't figure out if that was from fear or excitement or both, and I felt really insignificant in front of that force.
Back then I was told that there was a drought for couple of years, and that the river level was really low, and also the river was quite calm. That makes me wonder what kind of force you can feel when the river is raging during a flood.
Now what is YOURS?

when it didn't rain for a bit here, then it all came down at once and flooded my backyard completely.

Hmm...can't really rate mine so I have a few "most"s (and yes, they're all awe inspiring...to me):
Every time theres a yellow moon, every time when the moon is huge in the sky, and once, the moon appeared red/orange, looking at a listerine blue waterfall in New Zealand (I crap ye not, it exists)...the list goes on...

Can't remember what year this was.... but I was at the Full Moon Party in Ko Pha Ngan island, Thailand.
For some reason, the moon that night looked huge..... really huge!!... like it was gonna crash into Earth.Brilliant sight.
Eclipses are pretty awe-inspiring as well, I think. Also love red sunsets.

when i was first time cleaning cow droppings from a barn...when i came out of the barn it was awe inspiring.
when i was trying to get the freaking ram out of the cabbage field...after he had his full, he started chasing me (well throwing stuff at him probably had something
to do with it)...anyway after climbing the tree, the view was awe inspiring.
thats life on the farm for you, you're always in touch with nature.

I'm not a nature person, so not that many memories of it being awe inspiring. But there was this one time when I was on vacation(went to the beach) and I didn't get any sleep that night because I was stuck in a van with this annoying kid. But when we got to the hotel, I went on the balcony and watched the sunrise w/ a bunch of my family. It was pretty beautiful and I just stared at it for the longest time...but I got mad because I couldn't get a good pic on my phone.

Tropical summer storm coming, I would say. It suddenly gets darker, windy, colder.

This one time when I was spending the night at a friends house because my parents were gone and didnt trust me home alone, this huge heat lightning storm started, it was so amazing. My friend and I both love thunder storms, so we just watched it for hours, it was beautiful.

Oh yeah.... forgot about the 'a la natural' stuff like shrooms and weed.
Forgive me lord, for I have sinned.

I have a pretty recent one~ Like 2 days ago there was this huge storm at night with lightning flashing every 3 seconds. Lots of rain was pouring down too.

I was with my friend, walking her dog, when we went camping. There was this line of big rocks, I stood on one while talking to her and looked out at the fields. The sun was just setting, it was all reds and oranges with purples and I thought it was amazing.
