I'm about the same as Paul. If I'm strapped in I'm fine, but if I'm not I'm petrified. I actaully will use a lineman's belt while climbing up into my hang ons, but I have to take it off to get in and those are some anxious moments. I'm thinking of getting some of those long safety ropes for climbing, but they are $40 a piece. I used to be really bad. When I first started hunting my one buddy would make fun of me because he said he could jump up and grab onto my platform. I'm much better now, but 25 ft. is about my limit and I rarely go that high.
