World's Highest SkyJump:
Macau Tower
August 30, 2005
What's all the
jumping at Macau Tower? I can assure you it's not the cinema,
cafes or restaurant and shopping mall. It's not even the 360°
cafe or Lounge that has people screaming and all excited. It's
the Sky Jump off the top of the Tower and an exciting flight off
the edge that has them all excited. It got me going and off the
edge too - just nine days after they launched the world's highest
sky jump in Macau.
