How do I say "to be easily startled" in Japanese? A friend has told me that he's done a test of courage (肝試し) yesterday at night! He told me it was a scary one and I wanted to respond that - I would have been scared to death if I had to do a test of courage! Or - I couldn't pass a test of courage, because I am scared. Or - I am easily startled. Also is there a word/nickname for someone who is easily startled? Like scaredy-cat, fraidy cat or chicken in English?

私は、怖がり(こわがり)だから 肝試し(きもだめし)は、だめです。 This is what I can think of.
