But you would know enough not to stand that close.

People like us may approach the edge with great trepidation to get a peek, but I guarantee neither one of us would turn our back to take a “selfie” if we were closer than 10 feet from the edge.

Of course, we may never know the thrill of being so close to the edge that stubbing your toe or something might launch us into the air, but...I suppose as we get older, we don’t need thrills like that.

It is a tragedy for her and her loved ones.

No kidding. Cliffs and heights scare the hell out of me. I wouldn’t go anywhere near a cliff.

I suggest if that is your worse fear then you wouldn’t have stupidly been standing that close to the edge or anywhere near it. So your fear is clearly understandable, it is in reality, unfounded. I know because I share that same fear. I won’t go closer than 5 feet, and that is on a brave day!!! LOL

I was there before and I was amazed how many people would recklessly stand next to the edge of a 400 foot cliff. It’s just matter of time until one falls.

I am afraid of heights. I can’t get anywhere near a ledge that doesn’t have a guardrail.

I don’t mind heights at all; it’s that abrupt STOP at the very end that’s hard to take! ;)

Tight spaces freak me out. I can be very claustrophobic.

*SHUDDER*
