It intrigues me to wonder how much longer they intend to kick the Richard Montgomery can down the road. If the sunken wreck with 1400 tonnes of munitions in the hold goes up, the tsunami will reportedly demolish the Sheerness seafront and the LPG terminal on the Isle of Grain. Apparently they're not going to remove the explosives because the wreck's stable - so are they going to wait and do it when it's unstable????

My job for years was classified as 'working at height' and basically involved installing systems so other people could safely access all areas of the roof. So......i/we would get out on eg a 15 story building and fit safety system around the perimeter which was just a sheer drop.
Strangely, that never bothered me. However you would not get me on a 'big wheel' or 'big dipper' or anything I didnt have control of. The last time I went on a 'big wheel' was July 1968..... It frightened me so much I've never been on one since.
NB
I did a solo parachute jump from 2000 ft and loved it.
