Now I think twice. It took the whole crew to talk me threw it. When I was finished I was happy I had accomplished the same thing as him. He told me in the end he never did it, and he wouldn't do it if he was paid. I guess that's why I am the fearless one and he couldn't go upstairs without me for a year after Gremlins.

Not so cool with the spinning. If I embark on such an adventure, I'll request the straight up and down version, thankyouverymuch. That looks like so much fun. Would I be a real doodyhead if I laughed at your misadventure? Depending on the answer, I did or didn't laugh. I'm glad you did manage to walk (or stagger?) away with a positive outlook.

I too am deathly afraid of heights. I am thoroughly relieved that I have not been required to hurl myself from a perfectly good airplane since 1999. Though, I remember when I enjoyed it...it was surreal and amazing and peaceful...and STUPID! I wouldn't trade it for anything because the memories rock. I doubt that without a man who weighs significantly more than I do and has some glorious torso muscles urging me forward I would ever do it again. "Once you have tasted flight, you will walk the earth with your eyes turned forever skyward, for there you have been, and there you long to return." ~Leonardo de Vinci I love this story.
