Longest zip-line in the world at Palau's new eco theme park

Click on a label to read posts from that part of the world.

I wish writers would do some fact checking. 1,115' is 1/6th the length of the longest zip line. I've personally built four over 3,000'. This does a disservice to my clients. Who, with courses with total runs over 2 miles, really have something to brag about.

"The three-course zip-line..."

So if each course runs between 985 to 1,115 feet and there's three course, the total length of line in the park should be about 2,955 to 3,345. While the writer's claim that this zipline is one of the worlds longest might be stretching a little bit, you might want to re-read something before you comment immediately to whine.
