Hello all you Hivers,
I am taking up the 30 day Blog challenge set by @tegoshei and pointed out to me by @ybanezkim26. Today is Day 5.
What are you afraid of?
Well I am not a massive fan of heights but only in the sense that I am not a big fan of falling and not so much the falling but the sudden stop at the end of the fall. Ladders, balconies, cliffs that kind of thing I really don't like as i can almost feel the pull of gravity trying to suck me down to my certain doom.
But I absolutely love flying. One of my favourite things to do is jump into the Gyrocopter with @iamyohann and go flying. We have been 8000ft up in an open cockpit over a live volcano! How's that for a slice of fried gold and loved every minute of it. I've even had a few lessons and its the coolest thing ever.
The way I see it, the machine was designed to fly and it flies. It's tried and tested and it's solid engineering based on flight principles that work. It works.@iamyohann was trained to fly and he's a damned good pilot and I have trust in him. he can really throw the machine about and it's incredible what the little thing can do. I am not designed to fly and gravity will cause me to fall from the ladder or over the balcony or trip over the cliff and it will be a pretty crap ending. At best very ouchie. Gravity works!!
So I don't think it's actually heights I am afraid of its falling and a hard landing and my imagination is probably too vivid as I can visualise the worst happening every time I climb a ladder or am on a high balcony.
Thank you for reading my entry for Day 5 of @tegoshei s 30 Day Blogging Challenge. Bring on Day 6! I'd encourage anyone to take part it's a fun challenge and the engagement between the bloggers has been pretty cool too I'd have to say.
