    I'm scared of heights.

    Today, for charity, I did this:

    EDIT:

    trying to find an IT job doesn't seem so scary any more. 10,000 feet, 120mph. Oooh nooo!

    Superb!

    You've got more guts than me - I've got one fear and have absolutely no chance of ever conquering it, so congratulations!

    By coincidence, a mate of mine did a skydive a few weeks back. Unfortunately, when they landed - the instructor landed awkwardly and my mate ended up breaking his coccyx (he assures me it sounds a lot funnier than it actually is)
