I know what you mean. When I was a little kid I used to have a re-occurring dream of falling. Even though I always awoke before 'impact' it still scared me to death.

I've talked with many other people that have experienced this too. I know from my studies that it comes from our <font color="green">Reptilian Brain </font> - which ironically enough is the same place our fight-or-flight mechanism is located.

Can fear of falling or fear or fear of heights be a common thread among us? Anyone?
