That's really quite nice.
 
I was sitting at the base of the CN tower yesterday looking straight up at it... makes me dizzy. Have you done the Edgewalk, warpus? It seems like the kind of thing you'd do. :p
 
How does he plan to stop them with a baton? What he needs is an assault rifle.

I despair when apparently intelligent people see the current refugee criss and think "What this situation needs is more violence". While this comment may not be an example of this (I guess you were joking?) there is plenty of this on display.

No, I haven't. The SkyTower in Auckland, NZ has a similar attraction (plus one where you can "jump" down), but it seemed gimmicky and overpriced. This was before the CN tower had this, and I did consider it when I was down there.. but I paid about the same to jump off a cliff in Queenstown AND ride a jet boat, so this didn't really seem worth it. Plus I think I'd crap my pants doing the walk.. My body doesn't respond very well to such incredible heights.. Plus it was actually very foggy at the time, so I wouldn't have been able to look very far anyway, except for straight down and around the downtown area.

I bet the CN tower edgewalk thing is even pricier - it's about twice as high up I think.
