“The view is amazing, way better than I thought,”
I saw this on the news today! Spectacular! a 4 minute free fall!
I would be screaming oh fuck for 4 minutes.
My philosophy is: never do anything that will result in CERTAIN DEATH if it goes wrong.So clearly I would never do this!Could they not find better ways to spend money?Cancer research?or similar.
