Are you afraid of heights?

[TheGrayWolf]

Could you jump from a 20m cliff or diving board into water?
Could you walk along a narrow path in the mountains, on each side it's 100m straight down?
Could you climb a wind turbine and stand at the top (platform) without fear?

Yes, I could dm about some specific experiences but its a niche thing so saying too much here I could self doxx

Oh well I have not jumped off anything really high like bungee jumping or skydiving

 

[Therapywasaaste]

I could walk at heights but not jump, I don't even like going to high on the swings. The combination of the height and motion, along with the sensation of falling, that I don't like.

 

[GhostedPhantom]

I would be torn between my fear of dying in such a silly way and my inexplicable urge to jump off (aka the call of the void)

Could you jump from a 20m cliff or diving board into water?

I could jump, but I'd probably fail to land properly and I'd hit the water as if it were made of concrete.

I have the surface level fear of heights that most people have...

I think everyone is afraid of heights, to varying degrees.

you'd think so... but some crazies exist:

Frenchman who fell to his death in Hong Kong climbed high-rises around the world

Police are investigating whether Remi Lucidi, 30, died in Hong Kong while practising extreme sports on Tregunter Tower.

No no, I know they do, I'm talking about the average person.
Sorry, I said "everyone"

[TheCatMan]

I've been in a helicopter but it's hard for me to climb a ladder to clean my gutters.

 

[Quarantined]

yes I'm afraid of heights,
I'm also afraid of the word height because I'm short
