The fear of heights is a common one.
Sometimes, it can hold you back from doing activities with friends and family.
I should know, I’ve been scared of heights my whole entire life and I’m not
just saying this for the sake of this post. Every time I’ve gone to theme
parks, I was the one who stood in line with friends and held their bags as they
road rides with name like “The Thunder Tornado” and “Hurricane of Screams”.
They had the time of their lives, but no thank you, I’ll pass. So when I first visited St. Thomas back in September 2012, when Tree Limin’ Extreme had just
opened, friends of mine who worked there had convinced me to try it.
The reality hit when they had geared me
up and we made our way up the hill in the pinzgauer. When we got up to the
first zipline, I looked down from the platform and was nervous as could be! But
when they hooked me up and talked me through the process until they gave me a zip away, I thought, “Wow,
this isn’t bad at all, this is actually kind of fun!”. One line after another,
I was having the time of my life. Little did I know, just a few months later, I
would be come a guide.
My story may be unique, but so many others
have also conquered their fear of heights here at Tree Limin’ Extreme. We pride
ourselves on safety and professionalism and that along with our friendly guides
will ease just about anyone’s nerves.
I asked our Facebook fans what they had to
say about how Tree Limin’ Extreme helped them conquer their fear of heights!
Here’s what they had to say.
Susan said:
“I did it
because I was afraid to do it. This 68 year old woman had one of the best times
of my life. Of course I researched you web-site, was impressed by the
professionalism and the fact that one of the owners is a woman helped. Also
that you going in St. Thomas and not some grungy jungle made it more
attractive. My Husband & I will be forever grateful of the wonderful
experience Tree Limin provides.”

“With
all the safety equipment you wear, it feels pretty safe. As for the fear of
heights, that first jump is frightening, but also exhilarating!! Sometimes you
just have to experience new things and give zip lining a try!!”

“It
was extremely exhilarating, reminds me of the quote every time 'Courage is
being scared to death, but saddling up anyway' that's exactly how it was smile emoticon”
