    49 Swiss francs is about $54 American & 3060 meters is a bit less than 2 miles
    (~2 miles for ~6 1/2 minutes is ~3 1/4 MPH average... Looked faster to me)
    So wonderful that this experience can be enjoyed by so many who would never otherwise have the chance!

      There's the component of gravitational acceleration at some angle, so the velocity can't be constant. Also considering the curves where there's a small centripetal force may nullify net force at some moments at that time only the velocity can be constant.

      @@echognomecal6742 that's not the way to calculate average. In this case neither velocity nor acceleration is constant(there's retardation due to braking as well) you might need calculus to find the average

    awesome. they should have these all over the hillsides of Scotland. I lived for a short while near Loch Ness and the hillsides there are meant for this type of thing. I proposed the idea but the landowners up there are too busy feeling hypnotised and worrying about having their land stolen from them. Perhaps one day they will relax and allow people to enjoy themselves and be happy. It would probably do them good to. I'm sure the ride was a wonderful experience. It certainly seems to be.

    I wasn't sure what to expect with this video, I finally figured it out, then kept waiting for the chair lift to reach the top. It seems like it was going to go on forever,
