We Built a Flying UFO! Backyard Zipline Ride

I have always wanted to build something extra cool for our 500ft zipline and this spinning UFO ride was an instant hit with the kids, it's so much fun! You can spin as fast (or not at all) as you want and you can slow down the spinning by leaning to one side. It looks incredible when it's flying through the sky at night! WHO IS BRAVE ENOUGH TO TAKE IT FOR A SPIN?

I want to give a huge shoutout to Shane (NIFTGO) and his kids for making this video happen. When i first met with him and we talked about collaborating on some kind of DIY challenge video i threw out this idea of building something cool for my zipline and even though he had never even seen a backyard zipline and didn't know much about how they work, he accepted. Not only that, in just 1 week he setup a small testing zipline in his backyard and built something incredible. Check it out here:

I think next year i am going to take this design and turn it into an actual UFO/Alien costume, what do you guys think? I bet with just the two pools, the umbrella dome, and the lights, i could make something that wasn't super heavy, but still looked awesome.
