    Hi there. Thank you all for watching our video. To help out, all the details are in the video description. The zipline is located in Wales at a place called ZipWorld. All the official speed and length stats are on their website. While our little video gives you an idea of what it may be like, to actually *feel* the rush, the wind, the adrenaline and see the height is another level. You must try it to truly experience how quick it really is. Trust me, you will scream doing it too! Have fun!

    I'm 59 now, and went on this about 3 years ago. I did it because I'm really scared of heights. If anything it all felt a lot tamer than I had imagined, but was still awesome. The feeling of having stopped over the water was the most terrifying thing about it: the fear of being stuck up there for ages while they rescue you. At 500 feet above the water your forward motion is almost undetectable apart from the roaring wind.

    • @Skank_and_Gutterboy
      @Skank_and_Gutterboy 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      That's the part I was wondering about. From the video, it looks like you get "into the float" over the water, and then things appear to accelerate again as you get down closer to the ground. That's got to be an interesting effect and I would also be scared of getting hung up and sitting up there for a long time as they rescue you.

    • @jackfrost2146

      It's the same illusion created when flying at altitude. You appear to be almost stopped, in spite of the fierce wind in your face, but coming in to land, everything starts to accelerate sometimes at an alarming rate! You are not alone with this illusion.

    I have been on this zip wire before and it was alot if fun. However a piece of advice to anyone planning to do it, it's probably quite difficult but try to do it on a day when it's not raining because at the speed you travel the rain basically slams into your face and it hurts alot which I learned the hard way. But it was good fun

      It's in Penrhyn quarry, Bethesda, Wales, UK. At one point in history it was the deepest open quarry on Earth. The water is blue because of the colour of the slate that was quarried there. The water is mainly throughflow and rainfall that has gradually filled the old segment of the quarry since it was shut down.

      it's designed to slow as you get near the end. guys there have long poles to pull you to the ramp if needed. one vid at this same spot, the guy almost made it to the end, then went way far backwards, then forward well short of the run. workers had to come out from the end to roll them back to the ramp, and it was really quite far!

    Bethesda, North Wales. Did this years ago, and I dont do heights. Worst bit for me is the drive up by converted army truck. Coming down at 70mph, amazing. You will want to do it again. You do a little one first to get the idea, then the big one. A few people do come back down by truck, because they bottle it at the top.

      Hi Peter, you start at the bottom. This is where the base is, and car park etc. You do a secondary zipline lower down as a practice, then you are driven up to the top for the big run you seen in this video. It takes you down to the bottom area, where is where you stay. You don't go back up again once complete.

      Roller coasters do unmanned runs every morning before they let customers on, I would presume that these guys could test the line by sending down some sandbags instead of a human. They could also manually check the line for wear by lowering them down the line with some brakes on, but I don't think that they would do that very often

    observation: Zip Lines seem to appeal to people who aren't into real extreme stuff.
    They don't seem to normally hike camp or any advanced risky outdoor stuff. But they'll pay $100 on vacation to zip line. You know to do something real outdoorsy people take for granted. They probably drive Subaru's but stock up on groceries just before a 3" snow not daring to go out.
