Well, this does a lot for my confidence in the safety of zip lines

Don’t mind us, we’re just hanging around.

My family did a zip line course here in Austin a couple of summers ago. It was a blast. They start you on small ones, and you work your way up to this monster. Thankfully, there is a bar at the end.

I’m reminded now of that EA-6B that snapped a tram line in Italy 20  years ago. The outcome was much worse.
