I would start shaking and crying. Heights + Me = No.

I have fallen from great-enough heights to know that falling is some scary-ass-****. I do not wish to be anywhere remotely close to an edge at the Grand Canyon.

If I was God, I'd wait for them to finish the entire project, and then make just that area shake til the whole thing shattered. Pfft. Mortals.

I know. Bad enough I had to cough up $5 to sit my ass in 4 states at once.

I'm AMAZED at how many of you pu**ies are afraid of heights!











Add me to the list! I'm TERRIFIED of heights. I can MAKE myself do it, if I really feel pressured to do something. Eiffel Tower? I had a death grip on that mutha!

That area of the canyon is Native American land. I think they can pretty much do what they want to it.

I thought we did. Maybe I'm thinking of the Giant Meteor Crater.....

That thing is weird. I mean, it doesn't go out that far, seems a little pointless. I guess it goes out far enough to give you the sense that you saw the grand canyon from a different perspective, but still.
I object to $25 just to walk around a glass bottomed Grand Canyon track. I would go, though, as long as there were no scary bugs anywhere on it.

I feel really bad for that tribe.

is too beaucoup for me.

I'm not afraid of heights (Mt.Scott is only 20 miles away, Deb and myself travel to the top all the time so I can bounce from boulder-to-boulder like the idgit I be.) so I could hack it...
