I'm not really sure if it's correct to call fear of height or confined spaces "phobias". I suspect that this sort of thing is programmed into our DNA. Some people are probably simply better at suppressing that fear than others.
Now if someone is let's say afraid to leave the house, and this interferes with their life, then I'd agree that such a person has a phobia.
