This is scary to me!...Can you imagine walking on this...?

Makes my stomach drop just looking at it!

Sandybells-

I am legal counsel for the general contractor on this. While it looks scary as hell it is highly over engineered. It can resist sustained winds of over 100 mph and bear the weight of 10, yes 10, 747's...I have been out on the site several times with the risk manager of the company and you would not believe the amount of steel and concrete that went into the footings to hold the superstructure...

CRAZY!

I'd have to lay down, I know I'd be sick

Then again my hubby and kids like to make my stomach drop by jumping in the elevator!

I dunnoo... I'm thinking I'd still feel better with some support underneath. We see freak accidents all the time.. bridges etc giving way.. I've seen the herds of tourist at the Grand Canyon. Not sure I'd get on it with all of them.

I wouldn't pay $25 to walk 15 yards out above the canyon. I'm sure people will, but that seems like an outrageous amount of money to me. $100 for a family of 4. Uh uh.

I feel sorry for whoever has to remove all the finger and nose prints every night. LOL

no fear of heights here, so yes, I'd go out on it. Not sure I'd pay $25 though...

Yikes! No way would I walk out there on my own accord. Heck they couldn't pay me enough and they'd have a big mess to clean up behind me.

When are we going to leave nature alone?

In our zeal to enjoy nature, we are dispoiling it.

I checked with snopes.com, and regrettably it is true.

Gosh tired old man you are right but I have to admit I loved it as a way to experience the canyon in a way one couldn't normally.

No way, no how! Ain't gonna see me out there. And Nana, I understand, my kids are always jumping on the elevator to scare me. The canyon is so beautiful, and I've always wanted to hike it, maybe I'll make that a long term goal/reward!!!!! And you know, it's not even a fear of heights for me, it's a fear of falling, and looking at this walkway, all I can invision is just that, falling. Some of us are tough girls, but I'll tell you right now, I'm just a taffy ass. cassie
