Kamikaze is the only waterfall abseil in South Africa and is popular for abseilers at all levels of experience. Abseil Africa also runs abseils off Table Mountain, which is almost double the height of Kamikaze Kanyon. At 112m, it is the highest natural commercial abseil in the world. Abseiling is fast becoming a popular team-building exercise. Often people who have literally had to force themselves over the edge enjoy it the most in the end, because they've really had to fight a psychological battle with themselves.
Adventure sport is a major tourist attraction in areas like the Cape.
We re starting to give Australia, Europe and New Zealand a serious run for their money. With the exchange rate in their favour, foreigners are finding Africa an excellent place to experience adventure travel. South Africans may think that R350 is expensive for one day's entertainment, but there are no cheap thrills when it comes to dangerous sports. With safety a top priority, there is no room for adventure companies to skimp on professional equipment or guides. Most people are armchair adrenalin junkies who like to watch other people doing crazy things in magazines and newspapers, but nothing beats the real thing.
