EQD ATG8 - Day 16:

"Draw a pony facing their darkest fear/Draw a pony during the witching hour"



I'm terrified of heights. Not so much the being at a height, but more the ascending/descending aspect.



A good example would be my expereinces going up and down the Blackpool Tower (Non UK people, read as 'UK's answer to Eiffel Tower') When I'm up on the viewing platform, I'm perfectly fine. I'l leave the enclosed section and climb up to the more open levels to the area where there's only waist high railings (You can fit your leg through, I've tried!) and a net to prevent your fall. If it was possible, I'd probably even climb up to the crows nest given the chance.



But those lifts...



Those are the stuff of nightmares. Nearly had a panic attack in there a few times now. They've got big glass windows either side so you can't escape the view as you go up and down, not helped by the operator giving their speech about the height and the rate of ascent! I did try once to combat this by making sure I was staring at the floor before I even entered the lift on the way down. Big Mistake. Ended up getting a pretty good view of the gap between the lift car and the bottom of the shaft as I stepped in, all 350ft (107m) of it!
