    Hi

    It was an e-mail from AE. No voucher just the details.

    E-mail stated:

    GOLIATH! AT MILTON KEYNES NOW OPEN
    ****************************************************
    The height of 7 double Decker buses or 20 Justin Biebers which ever way you look at it that's 100ft tall!
    So have you got the guts to climb 100ft up a wooden pole then jump off reaching terminal velocity? Fight the temptation to chicken out half way up, jump for charity, face your fears, ultimately the question is can you conquer Goliath?
    Watch the video of Goliath! here
    If you live nearby or fancy a visit this month we have some great offers for those who dare:
    Half price tickets
    From now and till May 2nd 2011 Goliath! tickets are half price!

    no you are strapped to a safety harness which brings you down really fast then at last minute it pulls tight and slows u down to the ground, a straight vertical drop
