Afraid of heights??

Featured Replies

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?

flying im cool with

party because you cant really see whats going on

elevators are easy

but ladders and like cliffs oh man

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:

Anyone here been up to the CN Tower in Toronto, that's cool.

my friends go cliff jumping sometimes

and i never go

yeah like ladders?

oh man

crazy

 

Oh that's crazy.. a dear friend recently died while jumping off a cliff.. landed the wrong way and it broke his neck. :cry: Heights are no good.

 

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. :/

When I first moved into my 14th floor condo I was a bit intimidated, but now I am ok with it.

I specifically try NOT to think about that sort of thing, although I have some idea of what those thoughts might be... :P

I try not to think of those things, but I'm the type who can picture things all too well. I don't need to see awful things on t.v., I'm already a scaredy as it is! :rolleyes:

i HATE heights :stunned: i cud never go in one of those helicopters with a glass floor.......

i wonder what it's like falling off a building or something

what would be going thru your mind

 

The sidewalk :(

 

I hate heights, they say there is a primal urge when you are scared of heights and high up to just jump....i know I've had that feeling a few times...you just want to get back down asap.

I´m afraid of heights. and I live in the 9th floor. I don´t go out in the balcony. We have 5 balconies in my apartament. 2 in the living room and one on each bedroom (total of 3 bedrooms)...

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:

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... :/

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: I fell off my roof one time and u don't c anything flash except when u hit the ground...then u cry :( :( :(
