First of all, I don't like high speeds... won't even go on a roller coaster. I'm sure if I ever tried something like this I'd have a heart attack on the way down! :p

    A hot air ballon ride IS something I would like to try, but I will definately stay in the ballon - no jumping out and flying around for me!

      No doubt! I took a ride in a hot air balloon once and it felt just like going up and down in an elevator. Not much thrill involved at all but definitely a great view!

      Cheers

    I have fear of heights and I will never ever do that thing. I will rather eat exotic food than doing it.

      No, no thanks, not me. Years ago my son was invited to go up in a hot air balloon. I refused to let him go. That same month, the owner's family was up in the balloon and they all died. There was another balloon accident in the news yesterday and those people also died. It doesn't seem worth the risk to me.

      I've watched quite a few of the videos of the wing suit flyers, but I'll stay on this side of the computer!

        really? i never knew hot air balloon is that accident-prone. I thought it's prob the only sky activity i will do (as i have fear of heights too), it looks A lot less scary than bungee jumping or paragliding but i guess not now...

    Heights is one thing which I'm really scared of, so I won't be doing this anytime soon.

      Yeah, heights are just so scary to me haha. I don't think I'd be able to do any of that.

    I'd go up in a balloon, but I'd come down in it too. We actually went to a balloon rally with the hopes of riding in one but it was too windy so they shut down the rides.

    Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.
