Not for me. I can't even stand close enough to a window to look out. No heights for me above 2 or 3 floors.

I can't do heights. At all. A step stool...I can go up two steps, but not three! On the other hand, my son installs windows in skyscrapers. The last time I asked how high he'd been...he told me 7 flights up. I quit asking. It's better not to know, even though they wear safety gear.

I always wonder why people intentionally put themselves in danger like this. Is it the 'thrill' they receive?

Nope! Not for me.

I just saw on Facebook a new interstate that's open from El Paso to Georgia. It goes through Austin. I don't have to think about going over the Lake Ponchatrain bridge in Louisiana to go up north. I don't mind short bridges but I do have a limit. My limit is far from any of these photos. Not to keen on narrow mountain roads either.

No thanks! I get dizzy when I have to change a light bulb!

I have a thing about going over bridges that span vast amounts of water. Like the Skyway bridge in Tampa, Fl., the bridge you spoke of in La. And you won't ever catch me driving that one to Key West, I don't care how beautiful the Keys are. Speaking of that bridge in Tampa, Fl. when a section collapsed back in 1980, I had drove over that bridge about a month after that, I was terrified. I had no choice but to drive since we were moving to Cape Coral for work and I was towing our belongings in a trailer.
