you have not felt fear until you have had the experience of a chain breaking on a bike at speed.

Chains that are aligned, inspected and lubed on a regular basis, with a correctly placed master link don't usually fail at speed. I clean mine with kerosene, and then dunk them into a pail of oil over night. When I replace the chain, I also do both sprockets, and use USA made machined parts. Not overseas stamped junk.
