Reminded me of here.

They say they want to take people out to do it and possibly in Moab. After seeing some of their ropes, I don't think I could trust them.

1: Not sure I could hang out with those folks all day

2: I'm too scared of heights to even hang out on that cliff and watch.

[RINC]

Another "Awe Heck No " from me.

 

[Zorba]

Hard pass...

 

[rasband]

Not sure I could hang out with those folks all day

That’s really what got me too, otherwise I’d likely do it unless my wife find out and stopped me.

What are you seeing wrong with their ropes? I didn’t notice anything

For starters they're dangling over a canyon.

Look thin at the nest or whatever they called it. I’m sure plenty strong but that isn’t good enough for my life.

I know nothing about ropes when it comes to this kind of stuff and I never will. If it's not a bridge made out of concrete & steel I'm not going anywhere near it.

They just proved it’s plenty
There have also been several deaths on these swings.
I have no interest in calculating what size rope is needed but I just purchased a 9.4mm dynamic rope for a guy who says he is using it for a swing.

Like the guy that used a plenty strong but too long rope at corona arch?

I’m not a rock climber, but I’m certified and have all the equipment. if we both make it to Moab next year remind me and I will take you out repelling.

You'd have to hit me in the neck with a dart & lower me down.

You would be fine. Just leave your wallet and keys in the jeep.
We contract a Huey at times. I have video of hanging from a 150’ long line and being flown up and dropped off. I’m also scared of heights to an extent.
