I watched a feature on this recently and I have to say that I would be hard pressed to go out on there. I tend to be the guy who freaks out.

I heard they will invite Bush / Cheney as the first guests and Cheney will be allowed to skeet shoot and pretzels will be served.

I have to be honest; I felt a bit queasy after looking at the picture for more than a few seconds. The only bird I want to be standing over is the one waiting to be carved at Thanksgiving.

At least you're not strapped into a seat, and put out there.

I wouldn't get on any of those rides, or the canyon walk.

Absolutely, it looks cool. The views will be spectacular! Cool

Whoa, now that looks really cool!

I do love amusement park rides, the bigger and faster the better. 900 feet above ground doing three G’s sounds like fun! It will give me something to do whenever I visit Las Vegas since I am not into gambling.

I rode the Sandia Mountain Tramway and loved it! What a great view! Even when we got stuck on the decent due to “mechanical difficulties” for about ½ an hour. The stories we told (all made up Roll Eyes ) as we were dangling high in the air had some of the younger folks a tad nervous. Something to the effect of “the last time this thing got stuck it took a week or so to get everybody out, well almost everybody,,, folks gotta eat”.

I am also “the guy” in elevators that has been know to make comments when seeing people look nervous while riding up, or down in very tall buildings. My favorite is to look them in the eye and say, “these things go down you know,,,, then up again, then down again all day long so there is nothing to worry about”. Big Grin

The tone and emphasis on the first “down” is what gets them Wink .

I just went to youtube and watched this video, thought I'd share. It would be nice to go see, but I don't know if I could do it. I'm afraid of heights. Any comments?

Here's the link:

Most definitely yes. Seems like a great attraction to visit. I wouldn't even think twice of going there in addition to a regular trip to the grand canyon. If anyone here has been there, I would appreciate their take on the attraction.
