Looks fun but you wouldn't catch me going anywhere near them with that setup. The rope looks to be tied to the railings without any other backup :thumbsdown

I love the patronising chap suggesting you should only do it at professional centres. :roll:

Looks safe enough to me. :D 8)

Not what i was expecting. Tambo involved in a news story involving a bridge that doesnt sound good. Been in a car with him once, spun backwards twice. Youve got me hooked tam, yeeeeha!

I saw this on blue peter 10 years ago! I'm sure one of the presenters done it. al the warning are there to stop kids doing it with a washing line tied around the waist.

I know I would have if I was 10 :D
