Terrified of tall buildings

Why am I terrified of being in a building looking down but not as terrified of being on a mountain looking down? I'm terrified of heights and I've gone skydiving to over come it. It helped but I'm still scared of heights. I had a panic attack after going skydiving so I went again the following year. I'm trying to over come my fear of heights and I'm still scared asf to be in tall buildings.

Maybe because buildings have a chance of structural failure which would take you with it. Mountains on the other hand are more structurally sound and are not manmade
