Default Could you do this...
..I know this must feel incredible for many people but my fear of heights would stop me from ever doing it..could you stand on there and look down the Grand Canyon..?..

Not a chance in hell. I've been to the Grand Canyon and i was shocked how little safety there was. Most parts you can walk right up to the edge with no safety guards in place at all. It is a beautiful place, but it is very dangerous. I was shocked how many people were taking pictures right on the edge of HUGE cliffs.

I went before they had built that glass thing but I have a huge fear of heights so there's no way i would go on that glass walkway thing.

Ah i never felt unsafe, but I never do around heights. It was pretty weird how quick the time went when all you do all day is look downwards all day. I was there about 5 hours and it only felt like 1!

Urgh, **** off with those rides, who'd do such a thing, cray cray.

I could probably do what Ammi posted, but cry all the way around.
