I wonder how much they received in their lawsuit for medical and psychological damages?

Pretty funny as long as you were not the one experiencing this prank. It seems like it may have been filmed in a foreign country. Probably a good thing, because if it happened in the US, there would probably be a couple of legal suits for mental pain and suffering.

I have acrophobia so bad after 911 that I can not even go past the 5th floor.... this would have caused my heat to stop beating long before it reached outer space.

I freeze up, unable to move or talk. I have actually passed out before reaching the 10th floor of an apartment building. Before 911, I used to fly all over the place..... loved to feel the take offs..... Now, if I can not drive, train, or boat to a place.... then it is off my list of travel destinations. Plus any relative living in a high-rise, if they want to visit with me, they know where I live. My logical mind rejects my fear as a mental illness and insists that I need to engage logic. But, it would seem that my unconscious mind holds the keys to my terror, my pons and the medulla, which control my body's automatic functions, like breathing, heart rate, blood pressure, swallowing, digestion, and blinking.

I used to fly all over the place now no way. Both money and height problems keep me on the ground besides less far to fall.

You don’t need to be in a plane to be k**led in a plane crash. In fact there is a good chance there is one over your house right now. Start looking up more, the sky is full of the damn things and all it takes is one broken wire or part to send one hurling at your house or wherever you are at hundreds of miles an hour. Heck maybe one of those big engines falls off and squashes you like a cockroach and the people on the airplane make it down in one piece. Just a few weeks ago some poor bastard in Canada got his ticket punched by a big chunk of “blue ice” the frozen contents of a commercial airliners sewage holding tank carelessly ejected thirty six thousand feet over his head. He never saw it coming. One minute quietly eating a plate of poutine at a sidewalk cafe in Edmundton and the next his head explodes after being hit by a 40 pound lump of frozen sewage falling from eight miles up in the sky.

I won't even go the the dang airport. Just the thoughts of getting on a plane makes my aorta slam shut. My brother in law says flying is safer than driving. I say tell that to those who crashed and burned. I'll take my chances with the drunk drivers. At least I'll have a stinkin' chance. Waaaaay up there and something goes wrong...well..thats it. Not a snowball's chance in hell. 😭

I've Always been afraid of heights. Airplanes are fine with my but I can't stand looking over a cliff. I tried to get over my fear but to no avail. I tried skydiving once, and had a faulty deployment of my parachute. I had to go to my reserve chute and ended up with a broken ankle.
Then I became a roofing mechanic and was in fear every day. Now I get queasy watching a movie with heights in it. None the less, I think that elevator ride would be hilarious.

The thing I h**e most about flying is the TSA. They confiscated my jar of blueberry jam, but I made them give it to my twin who was still
awaiting my departure. Another time,they could not reclose my suitcase, so when I retrieved it, I had to carry it like a body with both
arms full! Also, I can no longer fly with my l.5 inch knife which I could use toward a jugular if attacked. I am an honest individual
who has been redeemed by Jesus, so I am a least likely suspect and do not have a rap sheet. I have a friend who wears a padded bra
so she warns them before they search for contraband. tsk tsk tsk They say flying is still safer than driving. OK.

Most of what we have to deal with at the airport is part of the plan of the Deep State. Be advised !

My wife recently scolded me for walking on a 2X4 wall plate while helping my son in law build a hunting cabin. I've been in construction for over 50 years, (retired now) and have walked on three story tall 2X4 wall plates but at 14' it scared her as I sometimes trip going up our front steps. I tried to explain to her that if I lost my balance I'd lean and fall inside and only fall 8' instead of 14'. Again she wasn't buying it. The fact that I'm 20 something in my head as apposed to my 68 pretty well beat up body doesn't impress her much with these antics but it's what I know.

I once went on what we in the trades call a sleigh ride. Nailing tar paper on a two story roof prior to installing shingles the tar paper tore loose with me one it. Well that sends you taking a ride, at a rapid pace, that is going to see you going off of the roof and onto what ever is below. Most of us either use roofing hatchets, in my case a 28oz straight claw hammer, either of which you can drive through the roof plywood and stop your momentum.

I now work off a ladder to make her feel more secure, the least I can do. Mike

Yup, I know exactly what you're talking about. I've slammed my hammer claw into a few roofs in my day. I had to build a 2x4 ladder on a roof for a carpenter that was up on the roof and terrified to come down to the ladder. I still h**e Heights. Get this painful tingling sensation in my feet whenever I see a scene on t.v. from up high.
