“Great fun and a good guide. I would have preferred to understand how the experience was progressing. I built up confidence as I went, and for example, for the final ‘challenge’, I would have made myself braver if I’d known it was the end. Some idea of time management would have been helpful; it felt it suddenly ended. Also, when you are unstrapping someone, talk to that person; don’t keep talking to the previous person; it’s simply rude.”
