Even if he survived the Sorcerer, there would always be another Sorcerer, bigger and more dangerous than the last. It was just a matter of time until he died the kind of gruesome death that was the very reason people had paralyzing phobias of heights.

About This Quote

The Sorcerer was a man who was so desperately afraid of heights that he would rather die then fall. While the fear of heights is understandable, it does have its limits. The Sorcerer in the story was so terrified that he lost his mind. The only way to calm him down was to grab his head and force it over the edge.

However, when he fell he broke both legs in the process. The story ends with him being taken away in an ambulance by people who are presumably trying to assist him.
