Vertigo doesn't mean 'fear of heights'. I means 'dizziness', a dizziness that may be set off by being in the heights, but not a fear of heights in itself. Woe is me! The red-pencil-man again. . - Ah, well, I still would like the word vertigo even if it meant steady as a rock.

Nice little Alfred Hitchcock movie called Vertigo. There's a cool website with then and now pictures of the numerous locations in the San Francisco Bay Area ( link).
Ceci n'est pas un seing.
