Grand Canyon Skywalk

This is just waaaaaaaay to scary! A glass bottom walkway that juts out about 70 feet into the Grand Canyon … 4,000 ft above the Colorado River! Errr, no thanks – I think I can pass on that one! I won’t even step on the glass floor at the top of the CN Tower.

  2. Seems pretty amazing if they can get it done.
    But I doubt it since how many insurers are going to want a piece of this project?

  4. I could not even stand up and look out the windows in the St Louis Arch…I KNOW I will not be a visitor at this attraction…

  6. Ah, but for insurers it’s all about calculating the risk; if the premium is big enough, they’ll insure anything. Pay me $2 million a day and I’ll guarantee you never get run down by a car … or win the lottery – you can choose. :)

  8. I know that feeling – I’ve been up the CN Tower a few times and I can’t walk anywhere near the glass floor. Apparently there’s a mirror so you can look up and see down through it (for those not brave enough to look down) – I can’t even look in that mirror!

    Mind you, just because you & I are smart enough not to want to do it, there’ll be thousands that will. Whoever thought bungie jumping would be popular?

Tell me what you're thinking...
