Just had a look at some pics of Storm Runner, looks pretty cool. But you've got to admit, you would get one hell of a buzz going over a top hat at 120m+.

Okay firstly, who is this "minority group" which believes in people not touching the pyramids? Secondly, many other cultures (e.g American Indians, NZ Maoris) openly welcome visitors to come and explore their "sacred" sites. If anything it helps people to learn and understand more about their culture. Telling people they can't climb a rock in the middle of a desert isn't really doing much for Aboriginals.The only reason I have for not stepping on or in a pyramid is respect. Simple. I have read you last post several times now Adam and am yet to understand what you are going on about. Firstly you seem to have missed my point that the modern Egyptians do not, on a whole, base their beliefs on ancient traditions, hell it's a Muslim country. But there is a group that still do and just like Australia they are a minority. However just because they are a minority doesn't mean they shouldn't be respected. The Alien's didn't build the pyramids the American's did. "The Bus is now leaving for Alien Dam, Victoria" -
Doesn't sound like it's going to be very big compared to Top Thrill Dragster or Kingda Ka which are both over 120m!

And tens of millions of people every year visit the Vatican. Obviously they don't climb on top because it dangerous and the building wouldn't support the load. Plus it's man-made, so people have the right to say it's "theirs". Aboriginals can claim a rock (a piece of nature) to be sacred to them, but why should anyone else have to see it that way too.

I totally agree.Not really... it's a big rock, thats it. If people want to have their beliefs about it then that is fine and I respect that but it doesn't mean we should all be forced to share them. IMO I don't think anyone should have control over a piece of nature.
