Does anyone else obsessively stand on things?

I cannot just stand on the floor. Anything lying on the floor, old shoes, bags of stuff, pillows, piles of clothes, cat toys, I'm always standing on it (unless it's breakable). If I'm outside I stand on big rocks or tree stumps. Sometimes I'll stand with one foot on a piece of furniture.
This drives my mom crazy but I don't do it on purpose--if something is there, I just find myself standing on top of it. I get down and I end up on it again.
Does anyone else do this?

yes. I do this. So do some kids.

Yeah, but I think I'm more inclined to climbing stuff rather just standing on objects (though I do enjoy jumping from one object to another as a game).
Ex.
*Sitting chatting with my friends at a table. Next to us a staircase with a railing.
Me: *climbs the railing really high without even noticing.
For context, I'm in high school and have always been called "mature for my age." However, most people find my behaviors odd, this one being no exception.
I can't really be around climb-able things without climbing on them.
I also walk on elevated structures that aren't really meant to walk on, like a kid would. I also stand and like to balance myself on high (elevated) places and will often do it with my couch or benches.
Maybe I'll grow out of it?
