My husband doesn't like heights and as a young boy visited the Royal Gorge. He became so frightened when trying to cross it he actually dropped on all fours and crawled across.

I can't image the wind currents, updrafts etc. that would confront a skydiver in this situation.

We visited Royal Gorge about 25 years ago. I couldn't even walk out on the bridge. I took a picture of my husband and son standing on it, but as soon as I snapped the picture I made them get off it. THAT'S how scary I thought it was!

Had I been forced to cross it, I would have crawled like your husband.

Me too. Frightened me beyond belief.
