Apparently there is a Zero G Room coming to Houston, about a mile away from my apartment. What is a Zero G Room? I hadn’t heard of it myself, but it’s basically a vertical wind tunnel — think of it as a skydiving simulator. The video on their site (which is large, as a warning to those who don’t have high-speed connections) is pretty cool. And apparently it won’t be too expensive (though I’m sure there are some hidden fees): $35 for a 2-minute spin. Not cheap, sure, but not absurd either.
I think George went in one of these while he was in Vegas.
That might be worth a spin.
