Flying Fox



No, no, it’s not what you are imagining now after reading the title. A fox doesn’t have wings to fly neither it has taken a sip of Red bull :p. Just Kidding.
Flying Fox is an awesome adventurous sports that originated from Australia long ago. In this adventure, you will be tied to a high above rope, which will be hanging to another pair of rope with a pulley and these ropes will be ranging across from one hill top to another. Yea, kind of Hollywood movie seen you see, but without a filmy camera. You then glide from one hill top to another with the beautiful view including valleys, tress, rivers and may be your scared friends running in opposite direction to you and under you. Pretty cool right?
Flying fox is also called zip-line or zip-wire in few parts. It might include you swinging from one end to another or a cable car where you can be seated with ease and enjoy the view. This sport occurs with the help of the special force of mother nature called Gravity.
 The word Flying Fox originated from Australian English. In the earlier Australia, that is in the past, Flying Fox was a mode of transportation where they used to deliver food, tools, cigarettes and ammunition to the people on another hill. Even the mails were transferred through this means.
This amazing sport will make your vacation extremely adventurous. Well if you are an Indian then Kerala is the best spot for this sports adventure else New Zealand, Haiti, China, Alaska, etc are few places of choice .  You just swing from one part of the world to another and vola! You’ve saved the world :P. Let’s just leave the whole world below us and sore high above in the sky.
