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.

QUERY: Are we allowed to feed the birds? Is there a tour guide? Do the seats have built-in mini port-o-potties? Ohh, maybe they include diapers in the $10,000.00 fee! Brilliant! This is retarded! What tool bag thought up this idea. Hope he's got good insurance!

This is a good idea however for peace negotiators as no one could leave until everyone decided the issues. In fact, it has probably already been tested at Guantanamo or in Iraq. Who nows what to believe!

This is great!! I have already booked a trip to do it! C'mon admit it, if you could afford it, you would try it, too. If they can get us up high enough, I think the finale should be a base jump for everyone. Perhaps I'll chip in for a few of my skydiver friends to join us. You will never find another restaurant with a more impressive view, guaranteed!
