  • I found this while vacationing in South Africa. It claims to be the world's fastest, highest, longest, steepest zip line. The specs are in the video. It was a lot of fun and not too scary. Except when you are looking down from the top of the mountain.

    I experienced this zip wire in Feb 2009 and, if you get the chance to visit Sun City, make a point of booking a ride. Its incredible. You receive a certificate and it something you;ll never forget. The fin board between your legs helps achieve stability if there are cross winds. Makes you look like a rocket man !!!

    Not only is the Pronutro zip 2000 the world's longest zip line, it's also the highest at 280 meters as well as the fastest, with riders reaching speeds over 140 kilometer per hour.
    The length of the Pronutro zip 2000 is an exhilarating 1.2 miles or 2 kilometers of pure zipping pleasure.
    If you're itching to tackle the world's longest zip line just make your way to Sun City, South Africa and make sure to bring along R295 or $41.09 U.S. dollars.

    The one in Icy Strait Point, Alaska is higher (1,320ft!), I went on it during my cruise there, the forest below had a layer of clouds that you were actually looking down on but this is defintley faster/a bit longer. If I'm ever in Africa, I have GOT to hit this up! Looks intense haha.

    To cut a long story short...I watched the South Park Episode and the considered what I could do next, then...long story short...I opened TH-cam and typed into the search box 'Zip Line' and, long story short, I knew most South Park fans would simply click the first video and long story short I was pleased to discover I was correct.

    There's a zipline at the Liberty Lake campground in Columbus NJ. I was afraid to go on it during the company picnic that I attended in July of 2010. I'm afraid of heights you see. But this line, I would go on.

  • @sammyboi1453
    @sammyboi1453 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    Compared to the size of the wire, those wheels are large, so there is a very small point of contact between the wheel and wire at any given time therefore there won't be too much friction, and no extreme amounts of heat.

    @billsf 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    That looked so fun! - But man, it looked like you almost (or did) come in contact with the ground at about 2:30 or so. - Did you feet actually hit the ground right then, or did it just sound like they did?
    Then you were airborne again!
    That's funny how they plucked you down at the end with a stick!
    Thanks for sharing!
