This thing has apprently been opened to the public now. I can't find good actual pictures but the CNN link has a video of it....CRAZY. No way I'd walk on this:

"The glass-and-steel horseshoe extends 70 feet beyond the canyon's edge with no visible supports above or below."

Just an //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif It cost $75.00 to walk on that thing.

-$50.00 Just to get on the Indian Reservation that it is built on.

-$25.00 To acutally walk on the thing.

Not worth the price if you ask me.
