Are you scared of heights?

[Flower7]

Yes

No

[exitseven]

Yes. I wasn't when I was young. In fact I wanted to be a pilot. But somehow I maybe developed inner ear issues or something and I can barely go up a two story ladder and I have to psych myself up to go in an elevator.

[Wiredone]

I'm not afraid of heights anymore. I was afraid when I was younger but I worked through it.

[Flower7]

What were some things that helped you get over that fear?

[Wiredone]

For starters I didn't look down. I just looked up or straight ahead. With my job I am on ladders almost every day. I had to overcome my fears.

[Wiredone]

Thank you for the mho

A little bit. Once I visited the Stratosphere tower in Las Vegas and the fear of heights took over that I needed to go inside and sit down and drink a beer cause I could feel the building swaying and after getting a little alcohol in my system I was able to go outside and walk around with ease. Mind you this was just after the 9/11 attacks and the WTC was in the back of my mind remembering when the North tower fell and then the South tower.

[Flower7]

I can understand how feeling the building swaying would be scary!

[Jjpayne]

I feel weightless like the strength is taken out of my feet. It's nerve racking even to look over a mall shopping ledge 😬 and that crazy dude was talked out of that, but it shows you my fear "The Sun
Dramatic moment heartbroken Brit tourist is talked out of jumping..."

[andreasderjuengere]

No, but yes. It's strange.
I can climb rocks or get up sailboat masts; I even enjoy (a lot) flying with small aircraft.
But each time I am in a high building and look down, it gives me the creeps.

[Flower7]

That is a very creepy sight!

[LaFerrari]

I used to be, but then I got over my fears when I started flying back and fourth visiting parents when I was young, eventually I started flying lessons And flew a glider and some small planes. It was fun while it lasted.

[Flower7]

Sounds like you went very far away from that fear!

[LaFerrari]

Indeed! :D

[moodiemoonlight17]

Yes!!! I am very afraid of heights! And I have a horrible habit of leaning when I am up high somewhere so I be so scared!! But it's okay I hope I get over it someday! 😣😣😐🤔🤗

[Pogi-Paddy]

I am really scared of heights, but I am scared of falling from heights. So you will never catch me skydiving or climbing a mountain.

[Flower7]

Me neither!

[TheBootyChest]

Not afraid of heights, just falling. If I feel secured from not falling then I can look straight down.

[Sophie_flower23]

Yes and sometimes I haven't to climb a plastic latter (that moves little) with the ice bucket to fill the fountain drink machine

[COMMODOREII]

Not in that i am scared of falling but of the ground at the end of the fall. 😎

[Flower7]

Lol that's an interesting way to think about it.

[COMMODOREII]

Yeah the quick stop at the end.

[Flower7]

That's definitely a scary thought!

[Dinosaursandanime65]

I don’t really remember but i think I almost died once. Never doing that shit again

[Dinosaursandanime65]

And yes I am

[Flower7]

It definitely sounds like it! So what happened to make you almost die?

[Dinosaursandanime65]

My mom, brother and I were going on a hike and there was this really steap gap in the path way and from what I’m able to remember, it was a cliff with a small tree on the bottom. Thankfully my Rigor Fate decided it was way too early for me to die and I was able to get past it.

[Flower7]

That sounds like it was really scary!

[Dinosaursandanime65]

Yes it was.

[NathanDavis]

a lttile bit wary but I really like the feeling at the edges, especially at cliffs.

[krin_m]

I love heights! Hate being in closed places , I'm claustrophobic!

[Flower7]

Oh, so you have the opposite problem!

[krin_m]

Yep!

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Yes, I'm afraid to falling that is why I dread changing a high light bulb

[WonderingManII]

I always think about falling and dying. I start praying.

[AlwaysBelieving]

It's more the fear of scared of falling from high places.

[Tunasub]

It's really not the height... it's that landing if I were to fall that I'm scared of.

[Tim-loves-it]

Yes but sometimes i will overcome it.. (Helping a buddy re-shingle his roof)

[Josh4206]

Not at all, loge heights

[Singlebimom]

Not really depends how high

[pizzalovershouse]

Only if im not in a harness when up high

[Guardian45]

I'm not scared of heights, just dying.

[1stranger]

[SandandWaves]

[Iron_Man]

A little bit

[JohnO45]

Scared to death

[Open2It]
