Mumbai, July 24 (IANS) Actor Sonu Sood says he is scared of heights, but wants to overcome the fear by giving a shot at skydiving.

"I have never done skydiving. I won't deny that I am a bit scared of heights. I have done a lot of stunts in films but I have never experienced anything like skydiving. But now I want to do it and hopefully I'll do it soon," the 38-year-old said here.

The "Dabangg" actor is sure he wants to try the adventure alone.

Asked with whom he'd like to go for skydiving, he said: "I would want to do it alone the first time. I should be able to do it properly first, why risk anyone else's life."

Meanwhile, Sonu says that he is glad that his profession offers a lot of opportunities to experience various adventures.

"If you talk about films or travelling, everything is very adventurous. It's just that you get lots of opportunities to do things when you are in this profession. But, for a common man, doing these things is huge. I am glad as an actor we are blessed to keep on trying these different stunts," he said.

Sonu was last seen in "Maximum". He will now be seen in the role of gangster Dawood Ibrahim in "Shootout at Wadala".
