1. Don't open your mouth on the way down...
...unless you like bugs for a snack.

2. Ooooh, I LOVE ziplines
Back when I was in summer camp there would be days when I would spend every second on it.

Have fun! :hi:

11. Before climbing up the pole, one of my friends actually looked up and vomited
Two minutes later he was having the time of his life.

4. Being absurdly afraid of heights myself
I think that this is very cool and hope you have fun. You'd not catch me dead on such a thing.

13. LostinVA and I are both scared of heights and we almost did it in Alaska this summer
However, my stepdad forgot to sign a release for Gaybro to do it, so we ended up walking around town with him instead.

12. we went tree top zip lining in Kauai, i was nervous at first but once we got up
top, 60-70 feet up the fear went away. We spent 4 hours zip lining and we had a blast.

18. Never heard of this before. Seems like a lot of fun.
I did a little sky-diving, so I don't think this would be too scary.
