Noah has a great fear about glass shattering (nelophobia) whenever he is around it. Ever since he was a young lad, he's always been terrified that when he walks by a pane of a glass or when he holds a glass of water that the glass will spontaneously shatter into a thousand sharp and tiny fragments, cutting him severely or potentially fatally. Nobody knows where this phobia came from. Noah never had any incidents with being cut by glass when he was a child or seeing somebody severely maimed by glass, yet he fears it dearly. He goes out of his way to avoid drinking anything out of a glass, or eating anything off of a glass plate/bowl. He refuses to take the window seat when riding in a vehicle. He even avoids going for a hit on somebody when they're along the boards because he fears that his pure strength would demolish his opponent and shatter the Plexiglas around the rink.
