Well, it is kind of lame. Not the idea, the idea is cool. But just hoisted on an ugly ass crane?

I'd rather do it in the jungle suspended between trees, or maybe even better, on a platform built atop the canopy. I have a friend who lives in a 3 story treehouse in the jungle, it's awesome.

I was just about to post that same thing... But without the Baby line.

Wonder if they keep extra silverware somewhere in case that happens.

Simple, go before you strap yourself into the feedbag. You can't hold it for 1 hour? :confused:

i'll build some platform for a dinner table and chairs, then get one of these things and hoist it up and i'll drive a group of rich people around eating their dinner in the south Bronx.

will charge them $5000 a head

i'll be rich!

wtf is the point of having a dinner while being hoisted by a crane? The view isnt even something spectacular. Yea the thrill factor is there, but anyone can go bungee jumping for the thrill factor. why add a dinner to it?

but i guess it would be a good place to close a business deal. have a business lunch there and chances are you will be able to close a crappy deal FAST cuz the other team is scared shitless and not really concentrating on the terms of the deal.

Just let it go. Let the people below worry about it.

I was just wondering what the actual overhead for something like that would be...

8 hrs? i'd be bored out of my mind no matter who i was with or how great the meal was. however, if it came with a few live shows (comedy or whatever), that'd be different. :)

I have a fear of heights so NO, besides what kind of fun is a party where you're sitting in a chair for 8 hours unable to get up and move around? This is retarded
