afraid of heights?

Share this page

Not afraid to say, "Yes, I am afraid of heights."

Would never even get close to that thing!
 
Closest thing to that I've done was rapelling down the side of the Snake River canyon near Twin Falls Idaho (Not far from where Evil Knevil made is failed rocket cycle jump). That first step was the hardest.
 
As they say, the first part is the worst... er, best.

I've done some zip-lining Mexico that was pretty high up (and repelled down the 100' waterfalls). However, this thing is mostly just FALLING that would get me. Nope. Not me.
 
I was holding the arms of my chair just watching it.

When I did Snake River, the first 100 feet wasn't bad, but then I reached the part where the cliff wall had been cut away from when the river had been higher eons ago. from that point on it was free-rapelling with nothing to put your feet on.
 
We went to NZ last year for our big anniversary and I showed that "ride" to my wife. Of course she wanted no part of it.... I don't understand why?
 
Good grief - I'd never even be able to make it down the walk to the jumping off point!

I get dizzy just looking at pictures of ladders.
 
I tried the rock climbing wall on a cruise ship -- being even with the stack and looking out over the rest of the boat and the ocean was enough for me. Funny thing is, I have no issues going up in a plane, even a small one.
 
GREAT GOOGLEY MOOGLEY! No way!!!! my stomach dropped out just watching the video.
 
Probably losing their lunch too.

Ever see the glass walkway at Grand Canyon? I want to go there one of these days.

Might like to try it, but I'm not sure I'd even to the Willis Tower (Sears) thing in Chicago.
