Dinner in the Sky

I had seen this before, but I lost the link. Now the link has been found and I am posting it here.
From the site:

Dinner in the Sky takes place at a table suspended at a height of 50 metres by a team of professionals. Benji Fun, our partner in this event, is the worldwide leader for this type of activities.

Dinner in the Sky is available for a session of 8 hours. It can be divided or personalised accorded to the client’s wishes.

Dinner in the Sky seats 22 people around the table at every session and three in the middle (chef, waiter, entertainer…). Just to give you an example: This means that, at a rate of 3 sessions per hour, more than 500 people could have access to this exceptional platform, or only 22 if you want an exclusive VIP event.

Technical Specs:

Total weight of the table: 5.000 kg
Weight of the crane: 90 tonnes or 160 tonnes
Measurements table (not assembled): 6 x 2, 50 m
Measurements table (assembled): 9 x 5 m
Rotation angle of the seats: 180°
Maximum height: 40 or 50 metres
Number of dinner guests seated (four-point seat belts): 22
Minimum ground space : 35 x 15 m

I'm not sure whether I could try this or not. I am not typically afraid of heights, but this pushes the limit
