Dinner in the Sky

Dinner in the Sky is perhaps the world's most unique dining experience. The way it works is this: You are seated at a round table with up to 22 other people and in the center of the table, there is a workspace where a chef, a waiter and an entertainer work. Once you are strapped in, the entire table is suspended 50 meters in the air with a giant crane. You can also order a second crane that will bring up a band or -- in a rather bizarre suggestion from the company -- "a car that is being presented at the same height as the table." The whole thing can be set up just about anywhere (it is based in Europe) that there is room for it.

The basic package is €7,900, or about $10,000, but there are many additional options, including photographers, which can be secured for an additional fee.

Or maybe I'm supposed to drive onto the crane, get hoisted up, then JUMP from my car to the dinner table without killing myself? I suppose it beats valet parking.

Where in the world did someone with time on their hands come up with this strange, nutty, odd, freaky, bizarre, scarey, etc. idea?
Spend the money doing this?...I doubt it.....use the money for anything else sane.
And to pay for a photographer to boot.....someone needs some ego lifting.....
I guess you have to pour your own wine, pour your own water, and not pay for GRATUITY!!!!!for a change....not bad....
