I went to the Sear’s Tower last month with my daughter. They have a glass walkout on the 103rd floor. My fucking heart was pounding out of my chest and my body’s instinct was to get the fuck off that thing. I can’t imagine being up there, untethered, working and walking around. Fuck that.

I was terrified of heights as a kid. My parents took me to that exterior glass elevator in Atlanta
and I sat on the floor at the back trying to press my back into the wall and my fingers into the floor.

I somewhat conquered it as an adult and forced myself onto observation towers at the WTC and Empire State Building
but my legs still got weak and I just knew the whole thing is going to give way under me.

I don't think I have an irrational fear of heights compared to anyone else....but this makes me feel really really sick. And they're strapped in.

I don't have a fear of heights, but walking around on those beams with the wind blowing like mad? Fuck that.

I cereally have no idea without a harness. These guys eat their sandwiches up there. Someone makes those sandwiches not thinking they're going to fall off a crane?
