I believe I’ll pass.  I’m not much on heights.  My first job was a Safety Clerk at a local plant.  We checked fire extinguishers once a month.  One was at the top of an 80’ tower (nothing to folks not bothered by heights).  I went up there once - scared to death.  Went up at night so to expose my weakness to fewer folks.  Made it to the top.  Holding the railing in a death grip, not knowing there was a loudspeaker up there, until they hollered.  I jumped so bad my hard hat fell off 80’ to the ground.  I wanted to kill the two guys who came out of the control room laughing but it was all I could do to make it down, lol.  Still, I was proud I overcame my fear enough to make it up there - once.
