I bloody hate heights. My brother on the other hand thinks nothing of it. We climbed up to Preikestolen and he walked right up to the edge and leaned over and took some pics. Its 3000 foot right down

Probably the wrong place to ask but, have any of you as you’ve got older become scared of heights? 

I started to lose my bottle a little before I stopped climbing full time, although I have always been a little uneasy(scared is a big word) of heights in some respects. I couldn't walk to the edge of a cliff and peer over. Happy enough when I am attached to something though!

Your edge of a cliff isn’t far different, I’ve got some work down your way and one of the jobs is Clacton Pier, to get to the pump station I have to walk over a grated area with the sea way below, I’ll put my big boys pants on but it makes me uneasy. Who’d have thought I did a fair bit of roofing back before scaffolding was the norm.
