Do you have the balls?: Part Deaux

I've seen this before. I'd climb that in a second. What's going to happen? When you climb a short ladder, do you often fall off? When you climb stairs, do you often fall off? Pfft. It's high. It's just climbing. You do it every day without consequence.
I love high places. And think of the view!

Wow. Those pegs get tiny towards the top, thats impressive. That last 60ft is crazy! They could base canopy or use a wing suit to get down.

I wish I could think as logically as Dirk. I also wish I knew as much about football.
Even though I know I'm safe on a ladder or anything with some sort of safety harness, it still scares the **** out of me. I'd rather have a *** in my face, or a lion chasing me.
I'd take a *** in my face in a second over climbing that tower but if its between that tower or being a filet mingon for a Lion I'll climb that mothafucka so fast you would think I was flash.
Yeah lets all meet Dirk out there and watch those fearless "internet balls" go to work at climbing.
His balls have their own website, dontcha know.

I shouldn't post high.

Admitting it is the first part of dealing with it. Well done.
I'm not suggesting that logic will cure anyone of the fear of heights. I did a substantial amount of rock-climbing when I was a teenager, starting pretty young. I think that helped condition me as an adult to not fear heights, but to enjoy them. Probably doing roofing in my teen years helped, too. Irrational fears, like the fear of heights, are not rational. I suppose that's why they're called irrational.
My own irrational fear involves vaginas, but I'll say no more here.
I assumed as much given their importance around here, I didn't expect otherwise.
So I've done climbing that is substantially higher than that. Does that give me real balls, or are they still trapped on the internet?
Also, I believe you've mistaken me for someone who gives one flying fuck what your opinion of me is.
thankyouandhaveaniceday
Really? Linkin Park? Why do you **** me so much?
No mistake at all, I know thats your approach, your flying fucks and give a **** attitude are quite common around here.
Should I be impressed or give a flying fuck?

I've had a lifelong pathological fear of heights (ladders, ledges, edges), so just watching the vid gave me the heebies. I could handle the elevator ride mentioned, and immediately tie off the second I got off it. But my legs would refuse to work on the ladder.
This reminds me of the pictures of the guys walking the girders while building skyscrapers. No fuckin' way.

Yes.
Yes.
Would I climb this? Given what I've said above... sure.
