I’m the opposite! I’ve jumped off cliffs into lakes, dived off a 20-foot pier into the ocean, and summited one of Colorado’s 14ers. The one place you’ll never find me, though, is a zip line. Hard pass LOL!

Wow, Matt! Loved this - and I completely understand! I don't have a fear of heights - two weeks ago I even piloted a glider (with an instructor present)! - but, well, *sometimes* I think twice about getting up high.

On a school trip to Paris we took the lift up to the top of the Eiffel Tower. I remember stepping back on a walkway that I didn't know was sloping... and when my foot didn't make contact with the floor as soon as I had thought it would, well, that was it. I screamed the place down, convinced I was falling.

Mind you, I was about a quarter of the age I am now... so I guess I got away with it.
