Starla Stargazer :D Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 Wow I'm worse than I thought.. today we went to visit my husband's in-law in the hospital.. so we get there and find out she's on the 9th floor. :o I don't do elevators, so I was looking for the stairs. I told my husband (who doesn't take so kindly to my anxiety :rolleyes: ) to go on in the elevator without me.. sooo I find the stairwell and it looks all desolate like you see in the movies when ladies get mugged.. so I just stayed right on the first floor and visited this wonderfully nice, older English lady who worked in the gift shop.. :D I'm such a chicken. :rolleyes: But that lady was so nice! :) So, are you afraid of heights?

Professor Peedston Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 Ever been to the top of the Statue of Liberty? That was my worst experience with heights, because I had to climb up this steep rickety spiral staircase that goes up the middle of the thing all the way to the head. I was definitely crowding the inside of it as much as I could. :lol: Oddly enough I was fine the day before when I took an elevator 1,000 feet up in the air and went outside at the top of the Empire State Building. :inquisitive: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm serious too, I'll go in an elevator to like the 3rd floor, that's it! But even then I can just picture the cables snapping. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

labell Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 Wow...that's rough. I used to hate heights, but after flying up north i found it quite fun. But like, being on a tall building, that scares me :dozey: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenna Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 I'm somewhat afraid of heights...when I was in Costa Rica, we went on a canope tour thing way up high in the jungle where you'd go on a zipline from tree to tree. It was a blast, but I admit, waiting for my turn to go, I got really nervous on the platforms b/c we were so high up. All I saw below me was trees...no actual ground. And when I was in Spain, we went to this castle and we had to climb all these stairs, like a windy stair case, and it was really high up when we got to the top. It was beautiful tho...it was like a really old castle, and there was a draw bridge to it, and water around it, it was gorgeous. So I've also done the ripcord at valleyfair and that was a blast. I dunno, its weird, sometimes I get scared, but I'm not usually afraid of heights...sorry that got long... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
