This Guinness World Record holder is 1.76 miles long (31 soccer fields) and can reach a speed of 93 miles per hour. Tears form and the pulse quickens as it accelerates to 60 miles per hour, descending more than a thousand feet vertically. The zipline runs from mid-May to mid-November, weather permitting.
