Zippety-zip down the . . . Oops! That wasn't supposed to happen
They've set up a free zip line across Robson Square that has been in constant use since it opened Friday. There's a constant stream of brave souls flying across the sky, turning somersaults and other acrobatics. I'm not sure what went wrong today, but a guy didn't quite make it to the other side. He ended up sliding back to the halfway point and was left hanging suspended over the square. Don't worry, this has a happy ending.


Stuck:







Coming to the rescue:







It's pretty high up:








Safely to the other side:






Everyone got back to the ground safely. Within minutes the zip line was back in commission and more brave souls were flying overhead.
