I stand, humbly amazed. Which is actually an improvement since if I were actually on that tower I'd be trying to keep down my lunch. :)

Me as well, Colonel. I love flying so going up and down doesn't bother me, however, tall buildings are another story!!
Little pun there, hehehehe

I have been on a 1000' tower near the top. I used to sky dive and hang glide. Now I just fly small planes. I used to rock climb but never tried anything above a few hundred feet. I once layed in the boomer compartment of a KC-135 at 35,000 and looked straight down. I have no fear of heights but that picture has something wrong with it. I can't put my finger on it. The people appear to be wearing harnesses but only the one on the right has a cable that I can see. The guy on the right appears to have his legs through the grid as if he's standing not sitting. The lone foot and lower leg appears to be standing on the opposite side. It appears to be an actual vertical structure they are on but something still isn't right. It could just be shadows. I vote fakery.

I'm afraid of heights, yet I'll free climb cliff faces.
*shrugs*
I have no idea what the difference is.
I just know that I have no trouble with cliffs, but buildings and such...
