Video: One giant rope swing
As a kid, who hasn't tossed a rope over a tree branch and swung through the air with wild abandon? Well, that is exactly what the folks in the video below tried to replicate, only on a much grander scale. The rope swing, in this case, was actually attached to the 140-foot tall Corona Arch, located not far from Moab, Utah, and the riders used a cliff as their launching pad. The result is one wild ride, all of which was caught on helmet cams for optimal effect.
Not for the faint of heart.

So much for the enviroment! Every time that rope brushed across the arch, it cut some of it away. They were doing more damage in minutes that nature does in years.
