    I'd do it.

    I have been up to the top of the Stratosphere Tower in Vegas. It made my stomach feel a little funny, but I did it, twice.

    That being said, I seem to be ok with large, secure man-made objects like that. I don't mind dams, bridges, towers, etc. I'd go on the Grand Canyon overlook, too.

    However, I HATE heights that don't have to guardrails, like the edge of a cliff, a roof, etc. Guess I just need that sense of security.

    Nope, no way no how. Not there, not the Grande Canyon, and not the CN Tower.

    Oh that would be wonderful. I would have no problems with that nor the CN Tower nor the Grand Canyon. I think I will add that to my list of things to do before I die.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Until one has loved an animal, part of their soul remains unawakened.
