Why Do We Feel The “Urge To Jump”?

The video explores the 'high place phenomenon,' where individuals feel an urge to jump from heights despite not being suicidal. This urge is linked to perception distortions and the vestibular system, which affects balance and spatial orientation. The brain's safety mechanisms, including the amygdala and cortex, play a role in processing fear and anxiety. These instincts, while causing discomfort, are crucial for survival, prompting individuals to retreat to safety.
