Vertigo
There's an increasing tendency for developers to incorporate natural areas into amusement parks. The one at the Grand Canyon seems bizarre to me: http://www.nytimes.com/2007/05/19/ar...th&oref=slogin People, presumably are going for the thrill of standing above 'nothing' rather than to study the geology or just to appreciate the beauty of the canyon .... sad ....

I don't get vertigo, as such, but have a great mistrust of cable-cars - http://www.wildabouttheworld.com/gal....php/photo/867 - sometimes there's no alternative ....
