Aerial Assault
Climb to level five of the Edinburgh International Climbing Arena, then make the final spine tingling ascent up a spiral staircase right to the edge of the arena. Once you're there you'll get harnessed up. If you're lucky enough to be first, you'll head straight out onto the assault course. Otherwise you have to wait. One hundred feet above the arena.
Once you reach the edge take a deep breath and step straight out into the open air.
The Aerial Assault Course is the ultimate adrenaline rush, a truly unique experience where you, quite literally, let it all hang out 100ft from the ground. The ride begins with a death-defying twisted zip slide and ends with a series of increasingly formidable obstacles.
The Aerial Assault is a personal challenge not to be missed for all those greater than 1.4m tall, unfortunately it's not designed for anyone smaller than that. So make sure you secure your place by booking in advance.
The Aerial Assault can take ten people every half hour and it can take up to around 30 minutes to complete the course.
Recently the BBC's Mike Bushell took a trip round the Aerial Assault. Click here to see his ride 100ft above the arena.
