Thanks! Like others, I didn't know about the Glynn incident. I can imagine why, at the time, they would've been tight lipped. Kiwis might've shrugged, but Americans would be shocked. I visited in 2000, determined to do physical stuff challenging my fears (e.g., claustrophobia, fear of heights). The U.S. is so litigious, I expected multi-sheet safety and waiver forms, layers of equipment, restrictions/prohibitions (e.g., age, vision). Nope. Everybody was "no worries." No panic, great confidence I could do whatever. They "6-wired" (made up) remedies for the unexpected. It was great! I got to check off everything on my list. Really gave me insight into the culture that made XWP so unique and, quite frankly, probably could not have been duplicated in the U.S.
