So I heard the Grand Canyon Skywalk is supposed to open today. Would you go on it??

We were there in November - didn't realize it was being built.
At $25 to walk on that thing...I think we'd pass... $25 to get into the park..plus another $25! A bit steep - no pun intended.. It looks neat though...
(It's 20-something..not sure the exact amount)

Yes!!! It looks amazing... have never seen the Grand Canyon, and it's definitely high up on my list of 'things I can't wait to do once I finally get to the States'!

My friends and I have been talking about this. Height does not bother me at all, but falling is extreemly frightening to me. so I doubt it. Looks flimsy to me
I once stood jumping up and down on a glass panel in the floor at the CN building in Toronto to tease my friend who was petrified of the drop below

I would have to crawl out there on my hands and knees!

Yes.
I'd also like to visit the grate-bridges in Switzerland which cross over some Alpine valleys
(prolly the source of the glass-bridge idea--like the glass-bridge, you can see into the valley through the grates)

Absolutely NO WAY you'd get me out on that thing. Don't really like heights and afraid of falling. Call me chicken . . . . . . .

It doesn't go all the way across - what a disappointment

Remember falling doesn't hurt anyone, it is that sudden stop deceeleration of gravity that hurts, so if you fall try not to land.
I would not pay to walk out on that, not because it seems scary, it seems overly priced.
However, I am glad that these people have found a way of making profit while bringing others to appreciate the amazing wonder of this earth.
I have been to the grand canyon from the sky and it is indescribable.

Of course I'd go. I love the feeling of height. I once stood on the edge of a 200 foot waterfall in the middle of the stream in Yosemite. Of course I look back on that today and think "was I crazy?" Anyway the $25 price is steep, but so is the price of getting to the Grand Canyon in the first place. Ha, can you imagine the overweight jokes that are going to take place on that skywalk?
Hmm, you know, I flew over the Grand Canyon 10 years ago on my way to Orlando. The pilot pointed it out as we passed over, but I couldn't make it out from the other land features. It all looked the same at 30,000 feet.

Looks like the overwhelming majority would go. So would I! How fabulous would that be?!

i dont know if i would go or not. i guess it just would depend on the mood when i got there. i know my husband probably would say no becuase of the cost. he is so cheap.

I'm scared of heights but I know that if we do play tourist and visit the Grand Canyon, my husband and two sons will want to go on it. I'll just have to make sure I wear extra-absorbent Depend diaper!!

(and yes, I'd probably be on my hands and knees too)

It'd be pretty neat. Once I got there it'd be all jittery - but i'd go.

Yes, I would love to check it out someday.

I don't know, that looks pretty steep. I'd probably see what my nerves did once I was there. The view looks amazing though.

No way!
I'm not really afraid of heights, but I cannot imagine walking on something like this (looks flimsy to me) with glass, see-through floor and such a depth beneath me!

I'd go out on the Skywalk if I had the cash to spare. But I would not stand where that nut on the left is standing in the photo.

probably. The price is a bit steep, but it would probably be very very cool.

Not at $25 a pop! A few bucks, sure I would go.

Nvm there is an additional $50 to even get out to the place, so at $75 dollars

no way!
