Dinner at 180 feet: The perfect Orlando dining experience?

Would you pay to eat dinner at a big table hoisted 180 feet in the air by a crane? Apparently, a lot of people around the world would, and the craze is sweeping the U.S. as we speak.

You sit with 21 other diners, strapped to your seat, as servers move along a walking platform in the middle. The Dinner in the Sky website suggests the idea would be a great way to conduct a meeting or a product launch presentation.

How soon until we get this in Orlando? It seems crazy and thrilling, but tacky and gimmicky at the same time. A perfect fit for International Drive or 192 in Kissimmee. Old Town, are you listening?

I'm pretty sure I remember seeing pictures of when they brought this to the IAAPA convention in Orlando a few years ago. I guess they didn't have any local buyers.

I imagine that this would be a nightmare in the wind though.

This is a stupid, STUPID idea.

Um....I think that would be TERRIFYING! And I would feel so bad for the waitstaff.... But yeah, 192 or I Drive would be the place that would do it.

OMG, hell-to-tha-no! I don't think you could pay me to do that.
