Daniel Jackson: Characteristics And Motivations

Problem With Heights

Daniel confessed to having a 'problem' with heights (2.06 "Thor's Chariot"), but it is unclear whether he was joking or has an actual fear of heights. He seemed to have no problem scaling the over 22 feet high crate containing the Stargate in the DC warehouse in 1969 (S2-21,"1969"). He also maintained an eighth floor apartment in Colorado Springs and definitely did not seem to experience vertigo or otherwise react when he realised his was standing on the wrong side of the balcony's protective railing about to do something horrible before Jack arrived (4.18 "The Light").
