As long as they don't stand up too fast...
Silly on them, cuz' they're gazing out, not down. They'd have the same view from 8 ft back.

I'm fine with that pic. It's this stuff that makes my hands and feet tingle just watching...

If you really want to get weak knees, check out "Ascending Skellig Michael" on YouTube.
Yikes! I can't handle heights either. My youngest son just went skydiving for the first time yesterday with a friend who offered to take him up. Ironically, I can't handle standing on a precipice and looking over, but I think I could go skydiving.
I choose not to, however.

I didn't think I was afraid if heights but,
No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. No!
I resign. Someone else can fix it.

All in a day's work for my ironworkers, who basically live on the edge of a concrete slab forty stories up!
Yeah, it's not for me either...

As I've aged, vertigo has crept up on me. However, with a lady so beautiful by my side I can hack it.
Is she a Guild Rich????

Maybe as we've gotten older we've seen enough things FAIL that we're not willing to take the risk. But now that I'm older I swear, these huge drop offs make my a-hole squeak and my eyes roll back!! NOPE!! I was better when I was young. Now I don't want to be on the edge of ANYTHING. I'm with @jp in that I could probably jump out of a plane, but stand on the edge of something really high and look down?? NOPE!!
One of my cousins college summer job was as a window washer in midtown Manhattan, IIRC, 30 Rockefeller Center was "his" one summer. Not for me!

No, it's my wife! Better than any guitar.
Good to hear. I haven't been quite so lucky.

I get vertigo from simply looking up and down too fast, I also can't lay on my back to work under the sink, etc.
