I am scared just looking at it. Especially at that female staff standing at the edge the whole time and hoping the two girls didnt freak out and push her down.
It's not anything physically on the ground; rather it appears to be either a shadow being caused by some of the overhead rigging from which the "swing" is suspended OR it's an insect on the lens of the camera filming the video! If you watch it carefully, you'll notice that the darkish spot doesn't disappear when moving amongst trees/foliage on the ground but rather appears to travel over the trees' foliage.
If you start the video from the beginning, notice at frames :05, :06, :07, there's a dark spot on the camera lens that appears against the platform near the front edge of it, and when the staff person closest to the edge of the platform steps forward the spot can be seen over her leg rather than her leg hiding it -- proving the spot's on the camera lens. I believe the same happens again at the 5:50 point on the video.
I'm mad now.This clip is the clip i show people everywhere when i think of the best and craziest ride in the world.Please tell me why there was a copyright removal of the audio here.I remember clearly there was no music,just screams of the people.
This is soooooo much statistically safer than skydiving. For one thing, with a giant "swing" like this, the ride operator can fully control 99% of the variables. Skydiving is so much wilder and riskier. Lots of variables are not fully predictable, such as winds.
Jesus I would seriously SHIT Myself!! NO WAY NO WAY NO WAY I'd be crying and whaling way more than those girls, fair play to them :) I love how the other helper is just pissing themselves laugh lol!!!!
WAIT UP, wait up, what is more freaky is that creature running so fast below the gorge at the bottom right starting at 5:46 mark!? It looks big but it moves so fast for its size! What is it???
Love this. Those two girls that is running this is so funny (I love tom boy girls). OK at time5:48 to 6:04 (or so) there appears to be an animal running in the lower right in a clearing far below. I don't think it is a bird and it is large. Anyone else see it?
Very disappointed that the voice has been muted. That was part of the attraction. Copyrighted laws need to be reviewed. 1.5 million views. What's next? Stopping little kids birthday parties because of fire laws. BS
An accident waiting to happen. I was appalled when I saw the guy unclip the second girls safety line and not clip it to the proper place! Their safety control is HORRIBLE!
It's so sad the audio has been removed. It added so much to this video.

+ycafe123 Hope you noticed, that all the staff are attached to the platform. They have a steel cable attached to the special vest they're wearing.
+Robert Jensen oooh thank God I didn't notice it before and getting nervous everytime the staff walking on the edge....
the staff are tied to the platform nothing would happen
They really need a wireless microphone on the swing itself. They're missing some of the best screams!
the level of cuteness in this video is alarming
Well said lol 😂
This looks a million times more fun than bungee jumping.
The lady in charge was wonderful & reassuring.I love going to South Island but you will never see me on THAT platform.lol.
The original video has audio too. I have watched it once.
At the 5:50 mark what is that black spot moving on the ground? Rather good sized considering the distance and it moves fast.
its probably a big bird or a wolf or a cow or a deer
I saw it too :-)
...any rodent?
It acts like an Ostrich

lol ive done it Backwards Upside-down the feeling after is the best.. now i am not scared of the heights 😁
I would be terrified but I think, with my best friend, I could do this!!
me too! :-)
I don't know how much fun that lady has. "hello", "hello" - She was having a blast.
What happened to "no means no"?
New Zealand happened
+Marclivis You need to read the contract the people sign. Once you step out from the inside room, to the outside platform, you're going.
+Marclivis No means yes and yes means harder
I'm from Brazil, thanks for this show of courage......rssssssssssssssssssssss
I'd hate to point out that the spot that people are thinking is an animal is moving coincident with the camera - thus it's not an animal but --

Looks like the operators enjoys their job :)

That was so funny ,lol ! I' d probably be the same,althoough I have done a bungee jump.Good on them ! I loved the reaction on the operators faces.
Where is the audio?? It was the best part!!! This is worthless now.
Chemical Brothers - Surface to air ...for anyone wondering. =)

skydivings more fun tho (;
Oh my god that drop is terrifying. I'd so do it though.
WhiteKnight Leo ME TOO
Reading the description made this 100x funnier
What's the tune they're playing in the background?
Those operators are sadists, lol.
thought so aswell. lol
I don't think they are sadists. They obviously knew the girls weren''t in any danger but just found their reactions funny.
how was there a copyright claim on this?
I wonder how much would a go on this cost. A 120 NZ$?
English Rain Its $180NZD
Jay Fisher Wooh. Still much cheaper than a 10 minute paraglide in Interlaken. :/
3:08 they just DROP out of nowhere LMAOOOOOOO awesome
No Audio......what happened?
holy fucking shit
Does anybody know the long hair operator?
Superbes ces deux gamines !! Bonheur à elles deux !!!
Palms are sweaty
knees weak
+Nev mom's spaghetti
Nguyen Duong Dammit Nguyen
I passed out
Jesus I would seriously SHIT Myself!! NO WAY NO WAY NO WAY I'd be crying and whaling way more than those girls, fair play to them :) I love how the other helper is just pissing themselves laugh lol!!!!
C'est divin !!!! Belles sensations garanties !!! Et encore, je trouve que ça ne balance pas assez !!!
the girl who got on the rope first looks amazingly beautiful while crying,
going back up might be worse....
SHEEEEEEEEEEEEIIT!!!
Where did the sound go?
How do they get down
i know how scary it is once it did a 5 metre one like 100 times lower than the one on this video and I still freaked out
Why cant i get the sound ??
Most terrified swing ever I saw.
Prem Kukal
I've done this 3 times. Its Freakin Awesome
I wanna do it. But I'd probably faint or piss myself fml
looks scary as hell but a beautiful view
where is the audio? This is very funny but need audio.
Why is audio gone?
the audio is gone
My name is Donna from Scotland ,Hamilton.I would jump at the chance to do this
no audio?
WAIT UP, wait up, what is more freaky is that creature running so fast below the gorge at the bottom right starting at 5:46 mark!? It looks big but it moves so fast for its size! What is it???
It's an insect on the lens. It appears again at 6:40 on the floor but when the guy moves it is on his hand at 6:41.
Birkir Brimdal You're awesome, sir! Thanks for keeping my sanity in check :)
+En Sign Its an Orc!
oh my goodness! That looked horrible I squealed out loud!

Superbe expérience...
" I think they're on most favorite so far" lol
I got scared watching it lol I have fear of heights AND vertigo
Pk ya pas le son
OMG!! i would not survive that
Omg I thought they where just gonna slide down the rope but nope I was wrong
Poor girls,and one has vertigo! x-x
NOPE!! I saw some animal moving below on the way back in!!
That's probably just a bug on the camera lense!
I will stay in the plane or helicopter thank you, but maybe just maybe I will try this.
me and my sister both want to do it
Hey currycheesechips, you have to fix the sound. This is just to funny.
Love this. Those two girls that is running this is so funny (I love tom boy girls). OK at time5:48 to 6:04 (or so) there appears to be an animal running in the lower right in a clearing far below. I don't think it is a bird and it is large. Anyone else see it?
I'm just scare of hights 👀😳😱😱😱
I wanna do it !!!
Brave girls, I could never ever ever do that! EVER!
See you in April!!
how can these workers stand on the edge like that like it's nothing.
Wow, I would be like that first girl but perhaps not as brave...or fool-hearty.
my hands are sweating LOL
haha I love the workers! No mercy!
C'est beau à regarder, mais ca donne de la vertige !
Put sound back pls
Shheeeezzzzz i really wanna try this :)))))
