Actually, it is a lot of fun, and there are dozens of Zorb runs in the United States. None of which have a deep gorge at the bottom of the hill.
In some places, you can choose a “water zorb”, where they put water into the ball with you, and it’s like a water slide.
I haven’t done one of these yet, simply because a single run is very expensive everywhere I’ve been that has them. More expensive even than the zip lines, which are usually pretty expensive, because of the insurance.
But I’ve watched videos of people doing this, and they are all having a blast. And I spoke with one woman who did it who loved it and said she’d do it again.
Seems like I’d get pretty dizzy. I’ve done some of the longest and highest zip lines in the world in Arenal, CR and did not enjoy them...scared of heights, I guess. Same with hot air balloon. Terrified the entire time.
Ivan: *facepalm*, Hey, Dmitri, Americanskis have discovered secret to making this work....
Dmitri: So, we send KGB... excuse me, we send Federal Security Service to steal... excuse me, research the American technology?
