a vertical structure including a plurality of structural members to provide structural integrity, wherein the vertical structure is securable to a level surface;
a lifting assembly for lifting an end-user from the level surface, positioning an end-user in a free-fall position, the lifting assembly including a releasable mechanism selectively engageable by an end-user when in the free-fall position to initiate a free-fall experience,
wherein the free-fall position is a distance above the level surface; and

a braking assembly for slowing the end-user fall speed when falling from the free-fall position and bringing the end-user to a full stop before the end-user reaches the level surface,
wherein the lifting assembly, comprises:
a lift assembly confined within the vertical structure for positioning an end-user in the free-fall position, the lift mechanism including a lifting device securable to the level surface, a plurality of anchored pulleys anchored to an upper portion of the vertical structure, and at least one lifting cable extending from the lifting, device through the anchored pulleys and selectively engageable to a wearable body harness donned by the end-user.
