Re: ""Willis Tower"" skydeck ledge scare..Maybe I won't go... :)

I'm claustrophobic and I'm afraid of heights. I get nauseous in elevators, too.

You should see me on an airplane! {#emotions_dlg.scared}

You couldn't pay me to step out on that thing.... I'd rather just go to the 96th and have a drink!

I don't care how safe they say it is, I'm not going.

Earlier this month we visited friends in Chicago. They took us to another building (not the Sears or whatever it's called now). We went up to the 94th floor and you go in an enclosure and lean against these poles and it tilts you forward. Not totally, but it's almost like you're doing a pushup....94 stories up!

When we got back to their condo, I spotted the building out their living room window. You could see it tilting out. It's on hydraulics or something. Weird!

maryebrown- one of my Best friends will go to Great America with me and just wait at the bottom of the rides because of her motion and height issues....

hulagirl- That is a GREAT location if you are visiting the city!

Nope. No way. Not for all the gold in the world or all of the tea in China would you ever get me near there!!
