It's called Vertigo. Agrophobia is a fear of wide open spaces.

Just a note kiddies, BASE jumping (Short for Building, antennae, span (Bridge), and Earth) is illegal. So don't try it at home [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Well actually for legality i'm not sure if it's all illegal, but doing it from buildings in cities is.

Crazy stuff though.

Acrophobia. </font>[/QUOTE]okay..you say acrophobia, Beaumanoir says Vertigo...odd? so which one is it?

Veritgo is the queezy feeling you get when you're up high and you look down and start getting dizzy.

Beaumanoir 12-06-2004 05:41 PM

Technically, he's right, i'm wrong.

Vertigo is the name of the feeling of dizziness or feeling of instability often linked with a fear of heights.
Acrophobia is the 'phobia' style term. Vertigo is the more commonly used word. Acrophobia is quite similar to Bathophobia, which is a fear of contrasting volumes or depths.

Much more fun without the silk.

Bathophobia, just knowing that there's a great distance between you and the bottom, yea lot's of stuff inbetween but still a long way, so far you feel like your almost drowning in the space between..
