nothing to be scared bro..if the time comes, you have to accept it.. 
Mine one is died without any symptom at all...
My experience is like these...
1st YLOD - it happens exactly 1 week after i update fw 3.01, and i download the Star War demo from US PSN and when play it, it just auto shut down. At first feel strange coz from day one until now i never experience any auto shut down issue from my console. Ok then try to on again, nothing unusual when i stay at XMB screen there. after few mins try again the demo. When just go inside the demo, it auto shut down again. Feel ??? again. Nvm just dont play the demo, maybe the demo got some problem i think. Then i just hanging around at XMB screen there checking some mail. Here comes suddenly it auto shut down the 3rd time...i was like WTF happening? Again try to turn on the console, it turn green light, just about 2 secs, i see the yellow light blinking there, then immediately it turn to red light blinking..
The fear starting to arise from my bottom heart..i keep asking myself "Am i the unlucky one to be hit with the legendary YLOD?", "It's impossible, i'm just playing it once a week, it couldn't be? How could it be???"
But still after few try, i have to accept the fact..
2nd YLOD - happen after my console has been revived 10 days..this 10 days i was so damn happy to download U2 demo, LP2 demo, WE2010 demo, and really have a fun playing with friends and Lyn buddies online. It seems like nothing has been happen before on my console, it just runs fine, no loud fan kicking, no auto shut down, no hanging on any game i played, the console also not feel any hot plate at all (coz my room equip with air-cond)...it just like the day 1 purchase. Then here comes another tragedy...one day morning while i'm stay at XMB screen checking something, it auto shut down again...because of previous experience, thinking that might be overheating, just quickly switch off the back power button and hope it can be cool down. So leave it there inside the room with air-cond on for 2 hours. I keep praying it may help to reduce the risk of being hit YLOD again...At the end, you know the answer
Take note that both of the incident are happen not even i'm playing any disc games that cause my console fed up. It just happen without any symptom at all..
So what i can advise is..enjoy the game you like as longer as possible and dont worry too much, as you can't prevent anything happen on your console.
My sincere blessing that all your guys console can last as long as possible, and dont be panic or whatsoever, coz you wont be so unlucky like us. Just always have a positive mind and dont think too much. Just enjoy your gaming experience as usual
