Thread: Dangerous and Crazy Trend in Russia - filming yourself risking it all

Incidentally, there's a theory that people don't fear heights as much as they fear the urge to jump. Have you ever had an eerie feeling when you stand on a brink of a roof or something high and can barely restrain yourself from diving into the void?

you need to quit on that stuff, man, you can't fly

Seriously
As a man who afraid of heights I can tell that hypotheses doesn't work for me. I'm afraid of fall and I don't feel any urge to jump, only urge to runaway somewhere safe But I only afraid when I can see the height below and if it's open air I'm not afraid inside building or elevator

PS: I remember "funny" moments when I had to work on a 6 meter height having only half a dozen of two-by-fours under my feet and nothing else. You get used to it eventually, after you sweat through your bones
