Standing on top of hills and mountains give me a serious sense of unbalance, despite the fact that I actually have very good balance. I'm sure there are other examples... it's kind of an odd group of issues. And yeah, I almost went to Airborne school as an option to help me get over my fear. Never went, due to not getting authorization after Basic Training. *shrug* Would've been interesting, I'm sure.
