CN Tower EdgeWalk Opens Monday

LEANING over a 1,200ft drop, a thrill-seeker tries the latest craze – edge-walking. Daredevils are queuing up to test their nerve on the dizzying heights of Canada’s CN Tower. They are kitted out in special suits and harnesses as they ease themselves out on to a 1.5metre ledge for a stunning, white-knuckle view of Toronto and Lake Ontario.The experience costs $175 for around 20 to 30 minutes – with customers being frisked and breathalysed as they go through. A spokesman said: “There’s no real danger. The cables are strong enough to support a bus.”
