What is your greatest phobia?
It’s said there are two inborn human fears: loud noises (phonophobia) and heights (acrophobia). That may be a tall order to believe, but it does set off alarms. (Fear of wordplay is a phobia I do not possess!) Our ancestors on the savanna survived to reproduce more often if when they heard a roar, they took cover to avoid a potentially ravenous animal. A mere rustling in the bushes could be construed as loud when all else was relatively quiet. Like noises, height is also a matter of perspective. Gravity is why I’ve never been able to dunk on a 10-foot hoop. Gravity’s pull also manifests the macabre reason I strongly subscribe to the fear of heights. Few people are afraid of simply being someplace high. After all, what constitutes high? In a penthouse apartment on the 69th floor of a skyscraper, you’re objectively high compared to street-level, but not in regard to the marble floor below your Tom Ford Oxfords. But if you your maintenance person ascends a ladder to change a bulb in the track lighting on your 25-foot-high vault ceiling, that stone floor suddenly gains a much higher degree of fearful respect.
