I am scared of heights (not ladders, rides, etc, but roofs make me a bit dizzy), but I think I want to try this if I can get over the price:
New CN Tower attraction offers a walk on the outside - thestar.com

Life on the edge is about to get real scary. Like 116-storeys-up scary.



Imagine this: You’re standing on an open ledge on the outside of the CN Tower. Now lean back, arms outstretched, into nothing but air 356 metres above the city.


All that holds you is a cable attached to a body harness and overhead rail.
Introducing EdgeWalk, “the most extreme experience” in the tower’s 35-year history, according to public relations people.



Opening Aug. 1, the attraction will be “the world’s highest full circle hands-free walk,” tower officials announced on Monday.


It will offer thrill seekers a heart-stopping, 360-degree panorama as they walk a 1.5-metre-wide platform a distance of 150 metres around the top of the main pod.

I think I will give this a try!
 
TBH, at $175, you're better off paying $100 more and jumping off a plane, if you're looking for a thrill.

But since I've already done that, I'll do this too!

Nothing would beat base jumping off the tower though.
 
Cost this much to go zipping a long on a cable up in Whistler and didn't feel the time it took was worth it. So I can't see this lasting too long for this price.
 
lolz? 200 bucks? PLUS Entry to the tower?

Yeah. They'll make a killing for the first month, then when no one does it again, the price will come down.

I forsee 50-75 prices within 2 years.

$10 says we see it on groupon or the like before the end of the season.

Sounds like it was pretty much tailormade for the group coupon crowd.
