Yep, that is cool.

Looks like a great crazy bunch having fun.

The mournes needs a downhill mono rail or zip line like in swiss alps and other places. Try getting permission for something like that...................i dont think so.

Lots of sun and lots of fun, but definitely not the world's biggest rope swing! Dan Osman used to rope swing up to 1000ft. Think I've posted this elsewhere on here recently, but also search for "Flight of the Frenchies"... they do a huge rope swing out of a gorge and let go... it's like sling-shot base-jumping. Unreal!
