Problem
I'm not scared of heights. I don't mind lifts and escalators. I cope with planes on take off and landing. But some things I draw the line at. Which ones?
Answers
1 The Tilt, Chicago. Up on the 94th floor. Each person stands at their window. It tilts forward. I was sent a video on Facebook.
2 The glass bridge.
3 The scariest road. South America.
4The rollercoaster which keeps looping the loop. I like to eat and although I would like to diet I don't want my food all over my clothes.
5 The old Tilt-a-whirl. Photo by Daryl Mitchell from Canada. Loaded from Flickr to Wikipedia.
An amusement park has several more - Conneaut Lake Park, Conneaut Lake, Pennsylvania, US.
Try Blue Streak (rollercoaster), Flying Scooters, and Historic Tumble Bug, the Toboggan.
