    Would you step into this big glass box in the French Alps?

    The bigger question here is "would you dare step into that box and THEN jump in the box?"

    I'm quite afraid of heights...but I don't think they would make somethin' like that if it could break by someone even jumping in it, so yeah I prolly would just to have a look if the chance presented itself.

    I would. But I'd probably feel really queasy and regret it right away.

    Your girlfriend's silence might be her loudest scream.

    If you still have more dreams than regrets, congratulations. You haven't gotten old yet.

    Spend every moment like it's your last. Hug her, kiss her, hold her, like it's the last time that you ever will. Because it might be.

    i don't think so but i could probably be lured in with candy. i would resist being forced under peer pressure to step in because everyone else did so i should too when i don't want to do it. if im going to protest then im not going to give in easily either. it wouldn't be one of those false protests where you know you're going to give in in the end from the start. it would be a serious protest. if i gave in it would be a failure. but if there was candy inside i could see myself going in to get some. i could ask someone to go in and get some for me but that's asking someone to do something for you. so yeah i'd rather go in and get something myself in that case if i wanted it. but i wouldn't take my time or look down. i'd just grab the candy and be out. i wouldn't be going in for the experience or on a dare or because someone would pay me to (you'd be surprised how quickly friends will offer you money to see you do something that they want to see) i would only go in if there was something like candy inside.

    Funny to see this thread here I can see the Aiguille du Midi from my bedroom window in Chamonix!
    The glass box "Step into the Void" is closed this winter but will re-open in June! I'm planning on going there this summer - even though I'm terrified of heights

    Can we go there if I ever go visit France?

    I have an American friend who lives in Russia who loves to travel and I'm sure she would love to go with me too.

    I don't think either one of us knows French. I probably know slightly more than she does but it's not enough to really do anything lol. I know more Spanish than French and I know more German than Spanish. I dunno why I just can't learn French lol

    Yes of course you can the easiest way to get to Chamonix is taking a flight to Geneva first (rather than Paris), because Chamonix is located on the border with Switzerland. If I'm here when you and you friend come, I'd be happy to meet up and show you around You can get by with English here in Chamonix cause there are lots of foreigners working here, especially Brits and Swedes
