    I have a fear of heights.

    I broke my ankle in a life altering way falling down two stairs unto a sidewalk. That, to me, justified my already reasonable fear of heights.

    I don’t understand why this is the “Thank God” ledge rather than the “Oh My God!” or similar ledge.

        That’s a fair interpretation, I suppose.

        Still, I think the only thing I would be thinking there would be some variation of “why the hell did I come up here and how soon can I be safely back aground!”
