I am talking about fears that restrict people and prevent them from enjoying their life and making it more interesting. Does it sound idiomatic?


I agree with this idea partly. I think fear of death is normal, the main thing is to be able to manage your fears so that they don't interfere with living a full life. If you are afraid to fly, if you are afraid of dying in a plane crash you will not see beautiful places in the world where it's difficult to come without a plane. If you are afraid of heights you will not see the world from a bird-eye view. On the other side fear of death -natural instinct for self-preservation.

After "normal" you need a period (full stop).

Back to bed for me. (I'll probably dream about flying now. 😀)

Do you mean the rest is correct?
Good night!:)

Try: "There are some places you will never see if you are afraid of flying."

Oh well. My loss. 😊

Perhaps:

If you are afraid of heights you will never see the world from a bird's eye view.

I guess I'll just have to live with that.

Being afraid something might kill you might keep you from doing that. (That might explain why I have never jumped out of an airplane. Of course, to jump out of an airplane I would have to get in one first, wouldn't I?)

There are some places you can only go to if you fly there, which means I will never visit those places.
