Zip line

So my wife decided she wanted to try this on her birthday.
Well let me tell you after the 4 of us (2 daughters) climbed the stairs up to this contraption i was just a tad weak kneed. I had visions of going into cardiac arrest. They strap you in with your knees pressed against the gate and then.......your off.
It's a half mile to the bottom and they claim a speed of 50 MPH but i doubt i attained it. My wife and kids beat me to the bottom by quite a margin. Must be they gave the old geezer the slow one.
This video must be from last year as there are now 4 zip lines.
It was actually pretty fun.
Anybody else tried it?
