The weird thing about phobias is until you're faced with whatever it is, you can be blissfully unaware that you've even got one. For example, I didn't know that the sight of blood would make me faint until I was about nine and I saw a kid get smacked in the face with a swing. There was blood everywhere, he screamed like a stuck pig and I passed out.

So, you might think you're not scared of, say heights - but have you ever been really fucking high up?

Like this little raccoon, who didn't give a single fuck as it clambered to the top of a 213-metre high construction crane in downtown Toronto.

Now, did he realise just how high up it was and then literally shit himself? Or maybe this particular raccoon is just a hellraiser and gets its kicks out of trying to shit on passers-by from very, very high up?

The pictures, which were taken last year, have gone viral after crane operator Robert MacFarlane uploaded them to its Twitter and Instagram accounts.

Oh, and in case you were wondering, this story doesn't end in the death of an innocent animal. It was safely brought back down to the ground and is probably chomping its way through someone's rubbish as we speak.
