Canyon Swing, Interlaken, Switzerland

If you’re feeling very daring, you may wish to attempt the Interlaken Canyon Swing in Grindelwald, Switerzland. Standing on a platform perched 90m above the canyon, you’ll be attached to a harness and told to hurl yourself off. If you manage to make the jump, you’ll free fall 70m, reaching speeds of up to 120kph (70mph) before swinging between the vertical rocks of the canyon as the river flows below your feet.

I took on the challenge (see the video above) and can report that it was one of the most incredible experiences of my travelling life.
