I don't know how you do it, I suffer from severe fear of heights. I'm not sure it's the height so much as it is the fear of falling and the sudden deceleration trauma. But ver cool pic!
Walking on the main cable of the bridge was safer/easier than having to walk a beam a few hundred feet in the air while carrying a bucket of bolts and nothing to hold on to.

Well seeing as how things have already gotten weird I'll chime in...

This one is from several years ago while I was doing an internship at the local zoo...

Yup, 8th peak as a driver.

There are a few in Nassau County. Not too far from Queens. There's a nice lounge in Roslyn Heights a few minutes north of the L.I.E. Matador Cigars. He has a nicely stocked humi. A bit expensive, but what b&m isn't in New York
