Imagine Being in These Photographs: It's pretty intense even looking at them on the computer.

I'm scared stiff of heights. I felt edgy just from the pics, all right.

WOW!! I would love to check out half of those places in real life, except without the danger part.

The cliff ones reminded me of the hikes I used to take in Acadia National Park.

There's a fine line between being an adventurous risk taker and having a death wish.


Don't look down!

Oh my. My hands and feet start to like tingle and sweat when I see those kind of pictures. I feel like I'm there and about to lose my grip or footing and you know... like die. 8O

I don't know if I could stand on the glass floor thing that the little boy was on. Maybe the grown-up taking the picture couldn't either? I'm too clumsy and not strong enough to do mountain climbing, that looks really terrifying to me.
