I guess the "riskiest" things I have done to get shots is get too closer to a bear than is probably safe on a couple of occasions.  Once without seeing that there were cubs further up the hill.

I tend to scramble out on rocks when shooting surfing and have nearly ended up in the water once or twice when I've slipped.  I did fall in a river when shooting white water rafting, luckily it was shallow where I was and I managed to keep my camera above water, even when my head was not!

Nothing really dangerous though.
As you're afraid of heights: you'll probably love this image Tongue

I would never do this without safety gear though!

I can feel the sweat on my palms looking at this picture,i kinda avoid hights but in the same time i would like to conquer this.Sometimes in my dreams i free fall from places similar to the one in this picture
