Some acrophobics also suffer from urges to throw themselves off high places, despite not being suicidal.

I've heard that some sky divers/base jumpers fail to open their chutes for no apparent reason/malfunction. Perhaps this might explain it?

I'm hoping one of our world travelling Pelicans can tell us more about this. Like where the hell it is. So I don't ever go there.

I'm worried that it might be in China. I get to see plenty of mechanical components that have come out of China and they are scary. the thought of walking over something like that, if it's made to the same standards, is terrifying.

I think I know someone we could send over to check it out....

He'll be too bow-legged to fit on the walkway by the time Kurt V is done with him.

If he finds that he doesn't fit on the walk-way then that's fine by me!


I just hope he's part way across at the time.

What about the schmucks that carried the building materials up there. Wow.

Mt. Huashan (Hua mountain) near Xian in China (http://www.dreamshangrila.com/scenery/huamt.html)

Sorry to disagree, but I think that looks like fun!

masraum 11-09-2006 09:01 PM

I have to agree, that looks like a freakin' blast. Damn! I need to visit China.
