Better stay away from this one in Colorado:

I've got a fear of ALL heights. I can handle things if there is enough of a barrier, but can't get too close to the edge.

Ouch, think I will take the long way around. Did you know the Chesapeak Bay Bridge has drivers available to drive people across? Wonder if this bridge has the same?

I was up on the roof of the building where I work to do some patching this past Saturday. It’s a flat roof, but I couldn’t get too close to the sides because it scars the sh*t out of me when I look down.

Don't guess we'd find you hiking this trail ("scariest hiking trail in the world"), either?

Took 6 months to build in 1929 as a tourist attraction.

I worked high rise construction, it didn’t bother me until I saw a guy go off the edge. I don’t even stand on chairs now. Gravity is unforgiving!

Nothing has ever given me the willies like the Rio Grande Gorge...

I don't know if it's heights as much as it is a fear of falling off the edge. Just thinking about this makes me nervous. I call it edge-ophobia. If there's a barrier, I'm totally OK. I'm not sure about that glass-bottom skydeck at the Grand Canyon, though.
