Well, it’s official, I am afraid of heights. Watching the new movie Fall, the story of two extreme climbers going to the top of the tallest TV tower in Texas, confirmed something I had kind of already known about myself. I’d had a minor panic attack while at the top of the former Sears Tower in Chicago about 10 years ago and I am pretty sure it came from just looking out of a window at the vastness of the City of Chicago and quickly growing dizzy.
The movie Fall confirms the diagnosis. Watching this movie I nearly passed out on two occasions and had to stop watching for a few minutes after one particularly harrowing look down from the top of the tower. Say what you will about some aspects of Fall, once the movie arrives at the top of the television tower in the midst of a vast desert, the terror is no joke. Fall is a movie you watch through your fingers and yell at in your mind as you root for the characters to take tighter grips and not lean over the edge so much.
