Dad With Fear Of Heights Is Determined To See The View From Irish Cliffs | TODAY

I can't even get near the glass rail on the second floor of the mall.

[carolynbohannon]

i cant even believe he got that far. i have a severe fear of heights and it feels like a magnet pulling me. its horrible. it started in my late 20s or before

[coolpain]

Everytime I'm near an edge that's really high, I feel like it's trying to pull me over

[Kosmica-hh]

I feel like if i peek over that someone will push me over

[frankcastellanos]

Courage is to act when you are afraid.

[raymondkinsella]

You don't have to have a fear of heights to know that standing so close to those cliffs is not safe!

[stolenname]

Just seeing the edge made me get nervous lol

My fear of heights is a bit weird. It's only in certain situations that I'll start to shake and panic.

Abseiling is a big no for me, rock climbing is a no for me but going on a plane is fine, going on a ski lift or cable car is fine and looking down from a balcony is fine.

I think it only sets off in situations that I don't feel safe.

I remember exactly what started my fear of heights. When I was 5 my cousin held me over the edge of a hiking tower me and my family visited. Never been the same around heights after that

This is me in my thoughts when I see pictures of that cliff Plattform in Norway and people just casually sitting on the edge.

I fear heights cause I'm scared to fall

[ptimal]

lol! i know the feeling. its such a deep instinctual fear that you cant just ignore. feels like the ground is pulling at you. seems its a rational thing, but even when you know your safe it persists. would love to find a way to get over it.

[budoquark]

I cant stnad on a ladder over three feet

[billgordon]

If this is real, (and not just for views and monetizing), it's definitely paralyzing. But get rid of the funky jazz music and this would be much more compelling. Silence only....the wind, the sound of this man's gasps of fear. It could be very gripping. Not going to happen. This is obviously a monetizing gouge

People who are this afraid most likely had a terrible experience with heights in a past life aka this was the way they most likely died and their soul still is terrified.

[RobertDeloyd]

yup, that would be me if I ever would get near a cliff

[budoquark]

You are NOT afraid of this you would NEVER EVEN TRY THIS IF YOU WERE !

[pakpaker]

That would be me also. I dont like cliffs. I dont like the air pressure pushing my body. I feel like i could die anytime.

[kurziieee]

this video is almost unwatchable for me
i can feel it throughout my body

[vetitonbhs]

I'm like this but, not that bad.

[alexkrycek]

This is my Avatar :D I would do the same :D
