I used to install satellite TV systems, with the last several years doing commercial work. I spent a lot of time climbing fire escapes and being on the roofs of 50 story hotels, among other things. I've been on the roof of every Hyatt hotel in the Bay Area, and of the Federal Building in Sacramento. I got over any fear of heights long ago. But I definitely RESPECT heights.

  The roof of the SF Hyatt Regency, with the former spinning restaurant (which wore out and was converted into a non-moving lounge).
  
  Views of the TransAmerica Pyramid and 555 Bush (brown building on the right, the former Bank Of America building, and the building the killer fired from at the beginning of Dirty Harry), the two tallest buildings in SF before the Salesforce Tower was completed, taken from the roof of the Grand Hyatt.
  
  Using a scissor lift to run cables along the 32' tall ceiling of a coffee roasting plant.

Very afraid of heights. Above 4 stories and I start to get a compulsive desire to jump. I used to have friends who lived on the 16th story and had their bbq out on the balcony. They just never understood why I wouldn't join them on the balcony. One, I wanted to live and two, I think it would have been terribly rude, as their guest, to leave them with that kind of mess to clean up!

I'm terrible with heights, I sometimes find it difficult to even cross a suspension bridge. I like climbing trees though so long as it's not too high

  Definitely on trees! But you can hug a tree and are surrounded by something other that empty, open space. I spent a lot of time up in trees as a child to avoid my big brother!!

  @Caroline91 that's true and you choose how high you go and whether or not you feel safe.

Well let’s see looking up at the sky used to terrify me and going up on an elevator that is clear so you can see the bottom used to terrify me….

I can climb a ladder without thinking about falling or hurting myself. So I made progress however the fears still here, I grew out of it more than anything else same with other fears of mine.

Yes. Being afraid of heights is an innate human fear unless you’ve been exposed enough to become comfortable with them

  It's actually somewhere on my bucket list, but no longer a priority, especially now we have a very young family.
  
  Why not give it a go yourself? I can fully recommend it... And it's by far more intense and exhilarating than the strongest ever orgasm!
