However, falling from thousands of feet onto solid ground I wouldn't really mind because that would be insanely peaceful until I died. However, I wouldn't want my family to have to deal with that so not falling at all is just fine with me lol.
I got over my paranoia of falling by hanging out a window at 10 stories by my waist. Used to be scared to go near the window when I lived in that place. As for robbers, you just need a good deadbolt. I have one on my bedroom door... mostly to keep my pothead roommate from going near my room, but partially to at least give me some warning when people try and break in.
