Wow! Same thing. I was on a military training exercise years ago and “froze” on a cliff roof about 120 feet up. My buddy had to belay me down as I sweated bullets and I have been spooked by heights since. No problem jumping out of airplanes for some bizarre reason (maybe just that it’s do-or-die?)But for some reason I freak out when I’m looking over a cliff or out of a building. Even my kids laugh at me.

me too. i was usually the last man in the stick but once, when we overshot the DZ, i was "in the door" for the next pass. buildings and cliffs are "tolerable"; glass balconies and infinity pools really freak me out.
