best cure for hear of heights? rock climbing. pick a route that's tougher than what you can climb. that way you are forced to focus on every single move rather than the fact there's nothing but air for 50 feet.
I was in Devon this week, discovered a park like this and drove ther to go on it, but they were closed so I walked around and looked at the challenges , it was Called "Go Ape" at Haldon Forrest Park, I am gonna find a nearer one to me and go looks like fun, But being scared of heights, you are the Man!! I'm scared of rollercoasters, bungee and skydiving so I'll not go near 'em, but you got balls man, you look shit-scared but at least you were doing it!!!
Good on you mate. Bravery isn't the lack of fear its taking action despite fear, and as someone who used to be afraid of heightsi can tell you exposure does work.
i have such a fear of heights. im afraid to look over the edge of anything. im afraid the wind is going to blow my ass over. we went to st louis when i was a kid and my knees buckled because i felt that arch moving back and forth. and roller coasters still kill me. ill never bungee jump.
The fact that you actually did this with your fear is impressive. I'm attempting the same type of thing today. Under the same curcumstances :P Wish me luck
this is a great place! I have no idea if they have anything like this in southern california, I doubt it....it's awesome to see you conquer your fear like this, bro!
pretty much got rid of it by confronting it. I bet if you
did this routine 20 times your fear will be gone. It sure looked like a lot of fun. I wish I knew of a place near here that offered something like that.
I've done a similar thing in the UK. As much as you try to tell yourself you are quite safe something deep inside tells you that you will fall and die.
If you have a fear of heights all credit to you for even attempting it.
did it too^^, its 2 months ago but thamn this was very hard^^, sry sven but this parcour is not very hard at all ;), but im waiting for part 2- think there will be the harder ones. i was scared of height too but since ive made the parcour theres nothing anymore^^
Now what i wanna see is Sven making you go up on those Dan and filming you while you do it. ;P I can already picture Sven shaking your lines with his foot. lol :P
should have taken some scissors up there and while the french guy was out in the middle of one, just called him back and pretended to hack away at the ropes. nice vid, lok forward to part 2, and you being scared shitless again :D
damn dude, i wish there was somewhere around here that offered something like that. I don't have that big of a fear of heights but i bet that would make my arm hair stand.
i did the same thing in Austria! im not scared of heights but at soon as i got to the "adult" section it was really hairy! yes you have your safety harness on but i always double checked them before i set off from each tree! best bits are the zip lines.
Definatly does knacker ur arms and legs up too, coudnt feel mine for a day or two!
Definate respect for doing it tho, especially with your fear of heights!
It feels good to overcome a fear. You should go up in a microlight one day, the thrill of it would take your mind off the hight (HONEST). I used to have a fear of lifts untill i was about 25.
JK man of all the "irrational" phobias heights is certainly one of the more rational. And congrats on braving that even through the fear. You're a real man! haha. Thanks for bringing us with you, too, that was pretty funny.
I'm surprised there isn't some sort of safety technician at every tree, what with the liability and such. You must have signed one helluva a waiver there!
Definately can't do this in the states so freely :-(
What a bunch of crap sven. You totally missed the mark about Americans and our way of thinking. We would hit Mcdonalds for 12 cheeseburgers before, and after, the lawsuit. Get it right next time! ;-)
Joking aside, good on ya man. Tackling fears like that is much easier said than done. I'd have urinated on myself. More than once. lol Well done sir.
man apparently i am twice the pussy you are because it would take some beer and and really hot girl with huge tits to get me to even consider getting on something like that.
i dont like heights too, i remember once was climbing was about 30 feet up and was asked to lean back and be lowers down.. i was holding on tight to that wall for 25mins :P
when your only 8 feet of the ground pussy lmfao funny shit
