It's interesting to hear that other peoples' height fears work the same as mine. The height doesn't matter, it's the safety. Super-high place with stable footing and chest-high railing, no problem. Same height with unstable footing or a low or no railing, fear kicks in big time. I'm always amazed by people who can walk right up to the edge of an unguarded cliff and look down without the slightest bit of fear.

I work in a city that has a bit of a violence problem. The place I work for has fiber all over town. At least half of our fiber cuts have been due to gun shots. In fact, our first cut was a shotgun blast at New Years

The first thing I thought on seeing the post title was "Man, that's going to hurt going in!"
