Totally amazing Kristy Hall ! I does ask a few questions though as to why parents would allow there children to be put into such dangerous situations ?? I would never allow my child to cross some of what was shown , zip lining ?? .....indeed a strange world we live in these days .But thanks for sharing .......unless you see sometimes it's hard to imagine :)
