00:00We are here at Climb Abu Dhabi, which is home to the largest ever indoor skydiving sort
00:19of hall.
00:20And I'm going to be trying it out myself.
00:21I'm really nervous, so I hope this goes well.
00:25Stay tuned to see how I survive.
00:55So if I see your hand first, we'll probably get it, yeah?
01:02Because we're going to like hold hands.
01:05Okay, this is the way.
01:08Guess where it's going to fly right now.
01:10This is called the Flight Chamber.
01:12It's the world's biggest indoor skydiving tunnel, and it's got a Guinness record to
01:16prove it.
01:17The Flight Chamber is 32 feet wide and has a record-breaking height of 104 feet, and
01:22it's located on Yas Island at Climb Abu Dhabi.
01:25The experience is open to people of any age, from 3 years old onwards.
01:29Whether you're a beginner or an expert flyer, their trained instructors will guide you throughout
01:34your flight, depending on your level and comfort.
01:37I was personally really scared.
01:39I didn't want to try any crazy tricks, so my flight was pretty tame.
01:43But John, as an expert flyer, was bouncing around the Flight Chamber.
01:47John did a detailed briefing and explained just how I was supposed to hold my body position,
01:52thumbs at eye level, and legs slightly bent and slightly open.
01:55The Climb Flight Chamber is equipped with 16 fans at the bottom, blowing winds at 120
02:01miles per hour, so it gets a little chilly in there, but flying is an amazing experience.
02:07Tickets to the Flight Chamber start at 235 dirhams per person.
02:11Feels amazing.
02:13I was probably scared for no reason, because it is exhilarating, it's crazy.
02:17The wind is so fast, it's so cold, and if you love adventure, then this one is for you.
