Glass Bottomed Skywalk Over the Grand Canyon

You wouldn't catch me on it. It seems quite dangerous and I'm way, way, way bothered by heights and the design doesn't seem to reassure me at all. The view would be great, the drop? well that would be greater and It's not a good thing only being designed for 100mph winds. Safety and because I don't like heights No. View might be temping but I doubt it, Laugh out loud =) Kudos Polly1, ~Joey

I would absolutely LOVE to do this! When I first heard about this, I was a little skeptical. After all, it just seemed so far fetched to my mind. However, I kept hearing about it, and then people started saying oh yeah, they're constructing it right now, and and I'm like wow, they're really doing this! I had a look at the website and it looks fantastic. I'd love to be able to go there and do it - just to say I've done it, and to see what the view is like, it must be amazing! The Eagles sure are lucky, they get that view every single day. :)

That's funny, my husband was just talking about that today. He would love to go. I'm scared of heights so I don't think I would go out on it. $25 seems a little extreme, but I guess they have to pay for the construction of it.

Hey, Vicky I am going to check that out it seems interesting. I flew over the Grand Canyon that's the closest I got to the Grand Canyon. Ok, i will check it out and tell you how I like it.

Wow, That is so cool. I have been to the Grand Canyon. My husband and I never had a honeymoon when we got married 28 years ago so after our kids were raised and moved out. We went on vacation to the Grand Canyon and called it our honeymoon. LOL We spend 4 days and 4 night there and still never got to see everything. It was amazing. I wanted to go up on the helecopter ride but we didnt have the money. It so happened that the if we had went up when I wanted to, we may have been the ones who got killed when the helecopter crashed. That is when we were their, the year and exact time of the helecopter crash that killed 3 people (i think it was 3). Anyway, I am afraid of heights, so no, there is no way I would walk a glass bottome walkway over the Grand Canyon. It is amazing how large the Grand Canyon is. There were manytimes, I was afraid because we were so close to the edge. Beautiful site though. Absolutely beautiful

The opening is on March 28th. I can't wait to see it. I've been to the Grand Canyon 2 times and I plan to go back again and again. The place is so amazing!

As wonderful as it looks, I don't think that I would be able o do it. I am bothered by heights on ferris wheels and roller coasters so I don't think I could handle it. I know my husband would love to do it though, I saved the link to show him when he gets home tonight.

I definitely would go on it as it has to be the most amazing view ever to be able to go out there and look at the Grand Canyon from a closer distance. I bet the view is amazing. If i saw the thing shaking, I would hesitate to go out there but it sounds like it will be very sturdy and built very well. Thank you for sharing this link and information. I was not aware that this skywalk was being built.

i have seen this on the news and NO WAY would you catch me out on that thing. I do not care how safe it is, but unless you got a rope tied around me that will prove to keep me from plunging down that cliff there is no way that i would walk out there.

Is this open to the public yet? I got this is a mail several montha ago and went to the website then itself. I also told a friend about it recently because she recently moved to the Grand Canyon area. I hope it is open soon, I would love to go on it...or maybe I'll change my mind after looking at the glass bottom..lol!

That would be great .. I'd want to lie face down and just spend 30 minutes looking below me .. and I suppose it isn't that expensive when you think about it ..

Wow it would be preety scary but at the same time it would be a wondurful experience. I am not sure I can go it or not. Actually I have to see the site before going on it. But I hope I would go for it if I visite Grand Canyon some time.

Oh my, I get vertigo just THINKING about walking of something like that! I'm the kind of person who can't look down out of a window in a tall building without feeling like I'm going to pass out! I think it would be a great view, and I wouldn't be worried at all about the engineering of the platform, but I know I couldn't physically walk out there.

I think this view of the Grand Canyon must be fantastic. I'd love to see it, but I'm not sure I'd have the nerve to do so. Rationally, I think this is a great idea, but deep down I can't help but wonder if this might not be a preview for the next "Jackass" movie. I went through elementary school nearby in Flagstaff, Arizona and have visited the Grand Canyon many times, but only once as an adult. I last went to celebrate my 50th birthday in combination with a trip to baseball's cactus league spring training. I loved the baseball, but the canyon was my favorite. I always feel like I've spent some quality time with Mother Nature when I've been there. Unfortunately, I've always had a bit of acrophobia, it's more under control now than when I was younger, but 4,000 feet. That's a lot. I suppose it shouldn't be any scarier than a 400 foot drop. If I fell I'd die just as throughly at 400 feet only sooner. Actually the extra 3,600 feet might be to my advantage should I fall as I'll have more time to pray as many rosaries, prayers, mantras and make as many deals with God as possible. I really do hope to go there. I applaud the Hualapai Nation to try and make money from something other than gambling. I hope this venture is successful and will lead to other attempts at similar projects. I think visiting the Grand Canyon Skywalk will be one of the great thrills in my life. I only hope I can summon up the courage to do so. I wonder if they serve cocktails first.

I would like to go on it. That would be fun to go on. Now what would be even better is if they make one like that you can drive on. Maybe over the whole thing would be great. I would like to do that even more.

Heights bohter me to a certain extent,but I would have to try this. Imagine the beauty of the view. It was a very interesting site,the video of how they built it to withstand all the pressures .

Sure I'd go on it! on my hands and knees...*lol* I'm so terrified of heights and I'd also be whimpering and crying the whole 2.5 seconds being on that thing. You should see me on the top rungs of a ladder...you'd think I was raised underground.

I have been watching this project from the beginning, and it is amazing! I plan on visiting an old friend in Albuquerque this year, and I'm definitely going to try and talk her into taking a weekend to drive up ther and check it out!

that looks so cool! i've always wanted to go to the grand canyon! my grandparents went there on vacation once, and they loved it. now i have a really good reason to go; i think i'm going to go this summer!

I had never heard about this bridge until now. That's amazing. The Grand Canyon in itself is amazing, but that would be an awesome way to look at it from a different perspective.
