Currently I live on the fifth floor, and it is possible to open my window entirely outwards. Yesterday I opened the window to quickly get some fresh air in.

Suddenly I was struck with this fear that I would momentarily lose my mind and jump.

I quickly shut the window again.

Loved that one :-) A very familiar feeling, although I live on the third floor, and would end up on my balcony if I jumped, painfull, but not as lethal as the 5 floor fall. :-p Looking forward to the next one!

:-) I think it's rather certain that I would be a bit of a mess if I jumped. To make sure it's certain death I probably have to do a dive though; heard of people who have survived higher falls.
There is this brick wall beneath my window though. Maybe if I aim at that? :p
