    Bet You Wouldn't Do This

    In the paper yesterday was an article about weekend get away places
    to go within a few hour trips from Indy. I read about this one place called

    http://www.purplepeoplebridgeclimb.com/

    It is totally awesome, but I'd never do it even for a million dollars.
    I actually get a sick, tinglely feeling just looking at the picture in the paper.

    Would you ever have the nerve to try this?

    You coulcn't get me to do that if you paid me a million dollars. I am SO afraid of heights it isn't even funny. Other than that it looks like fun.

    That looks like so much fun!!

    I used to rock climb/rappel on the Niagara Escarpment, and climbing around a bridge would be really cool too!

    I've also done the Haliburton Walk in the Trees - its a canopy walk wayyy up at the top of the trees on robe bridges with harnesses etc. Tons of fun, and the park also has a Wildlife Reserve and Wolf Center.

    No way. I'm also afraid of heights but I still enjoy riding rollercoasters.

    It certainly looks like fun, I think I'd do it! But I'm sure that I would be scared while doing it, I'm a little bit afraid of heights, actually

    WAH! While I would never do it, if any of YOU decide to, call me! That is downtown Cincinnati, on one of the bridges leading from Ohio into KY, over the Ohio river....it is about 10 minutes away.

    I'd do it for sure! I did it across the Sydney Harbor Bridge. It was a blast! But, for some reason, I'm afraid of rollercoasters and even ferris wheels.

    Sure I would. They wouldn't let you do it over there if it was only 99% safe

    And you know we had that training in the alps
