The CN Tower in Toronto is offering thrill-seekers a chance to walk around the roof, outside the building!
The roof of Canada’s tallest building will be open to the public within a matter of days, offering daredevils the chance to dangle off the roof of the 365 metre-high building.
The CN Tower in Toronto will allow people to walk around the circumference of the roof - outside and with no guard rail - when its new EdgeWalk attraction opens to the public on August 1.Participants are connected to an overhead rail while they walk the 1.5 metre wide open-mesh metal walkway, allowing them to look down towards the tiny people below.
The $3.4 million attraction offers spectacular uninterrupted views of Toronto and gives many people a chance to overcome their fear of heights.
But it's definitely not for the faint-heated. The CEO of Canada Lands, Mark Laroche, has tried the experience four times and says, "my legs were shaking".
Tickets cost C$175 for the 30-minute experience.
The tower estimates that up to 12,000 people will try out the attraction each year. Tickets for the first public walk quickly sold out when it was opened last month.
Similar attractions exist in New Zealand (Auckland), Macau, China and Sydney.
