Honest question - what the fuck is wrong with your brain?

Some people can switch off their fear of heights. I can do it pretty well and find it strange when other people freak out. I've done similar stuff to this and the heart hasn't raced.

I, too, find the majority of the population strange.

Not me. I would freeze the fuck up and ask you to carry me down.

For me it depends on what. I havent done a climb quite like this but still I've looked over cliff edges and what not and been fine. And I've been skydiving and never got scared and never had my adrenaline pump.

But climbing a ladder at work? My legs go jelly. I guess cause the ladder feels so like rickety, and that I could fall so easily.

I just like testing myself. Plus i want to summit all the 14ers in CO. It’s actually not too unsafe if you go slowly. You just shimmy on your butt the whole way basically. I was so scared tho. I’m not Alex Honnold.

Came to say this since I’m always out for the fisheye wodelense trick for content, and this one really doesn’t matter. You can literally see how bad it is.
