I am scared to death of heights. But when I was told it would cost me $80.00 a hour for someone to shimmy up our 64 foot mast to change a light bulb. I manned up and did it myself, in fact, I eventually made my own self raising and lower bosun chair and began charging others. The heights still freaked me out but I made good money changing bulbs, rigging and tuning other peoples masts.
