UAE Launches The World's Longest Zipline

[Pavel + 384]

The 2.8 kilometer (1.74 miles) zipline, spanning the equivalent of 28 soccer fields, was certified this week by the Guinness World Records. The zipline can handle as many as 100,000 people a year, and though there are no age restrictions, riders must be at least 1.22 meters tall and no heavier than 150 kilograms.

Making money on tourism

Ok. But, don't ruin your neighborhood. What is UAE's interest in pursuing this policy?

[Pavel + 384]

Wrong topic for your elaboration. Zipline is point of this, and I will  try out this adrenaline park....

Yeah, count me out. Too many foreigners are turning up dead in UAE, like domestic workers. One was found in a freezer? It's just WEIRD. No thanks.

[Rodent + 1,424]

Oh, I stand corrected. That was Kuwait. News from those nutter middle eastern countries all start to blend after a while.https://www.usnews.com/news/business/articles/2018-02-13/kuwait-calms-philippines-after-dead-worker-found-in-freezer

still, no thanks.

surely, UAE will have to get one now, too. Can't let Kuwait have the biggest. Saudis will follow suit.
