Saw this when they were at the Square, then I saw it on the Discovery Channel a few days afterwards. They were in Brussls with some super gorgeous models atop.]]>

Hello Guys,
I recommend you to visit our website for further events. We had a request of redoing it in Toronto, next September. Hope to meet you there!
Based in Montreal, I've imported this concept to America in order to offer something totaly unique to my country. We have many other cities to visit this summer (from Quebec city, Calgary, Ottawa, New York, Chicago and Vancouver).
Thank you for your interest,
JF]]>

People were encouraged to use the facilities before going up, but apparently if necessary, they'll bring it down immediately, on request.]]>

What's wrong with doing things we like, even if other cities have done them before? 

Your obsession with being "original" and "Torontonian" seems to be much more concerned with what other cities have done (or haven't done). 

Nobody cares, as long as we're having fun.]]>

Every time a great idea like this appears I just shake my head sideways and repeat with myself - "Why can't Torontonians invent stuff like that?" Think about all the crazy but wonderful things that happened to/in our city and chances are they came from another country. Remember those painted moose? How about that art event that went all night accross downtown? Toronto is a great city which has been poorly served by architects (see Bloor and Yonge), artists and the creative class in general. Stop copying winterlicious and summerlicious and all these events which were invented abroad and start creating our own! No more Luminatos! And welcome those new bizarre Canadian ideas which never have their opportunity in the sun. Or over the moon. Goshhhh!]]>

Special requests are taken before boarding (there was at least one vegetarian meal on my lift). Food was prepared on ground level, and brought out hot just before the crane hoisted us up.

re: vertigo/sickness: I asked the organizers about this, and their response was that not a single person had gotten ill or freaked out in fear all day :)]]>

That's how I got reservations at Canoe. And how people get concert tickets. And so on. It wouldn't be special if everybody were doing it, ya know.

How do they prepare / keep the food hot? Is it all cooked on the ground and kept warm on the lift until you're served?

Not exactly suited for special requests!]]>

Looks like a cool experience. Everyone looks pretty relaxed in the lead off shot. I like the shot of the guy looking over his shoulder; it has a nice visceral quality. The one thing I somewhat dislike about this is the amount of advertising Amex is getting out of this; their name is plastered everywhere in the square and of course on the platform. I guess they're entitled since they're sponsoring the event; still it feels weird seeing our public spaces so completely given over to corporate advertising. 
Did they have airline bags in case anyone had a bad reaction or would it have been "Lookout below!" if there were an incident?]]>

@ Steve

You didn't have to "know people" to get a seat. You had to be an Amex card holder, catch the news of the reservation process, and be on the ball when reservations opened.]]>

So a "lucky few" get to eat dinner suspended in mid-air while the "peasants" gaze in wide wonder from below. "Hey, everybody, look at us, don't you wish you were lucky like us? Aren't we cool and trendy...we know people". Whoopee. Maybe next time you could just toss your crumbs to the people below or just send down your table scraps.  We bow to you. You are so much more worthy than we.]]>

Oh, I should have mentioned that the entire experience was free for Amex card holders that were lucky enough to get a reservation in advance. Apparently they were spoken for within  under 15 minutes of the public announcement.]]>

I saw Rick Campanelli and Chris Murphy(of Sloan) this noon time down at the Dinner In The Sky event. I think Rick was covering it for ET Canada. Does Chris have a day job there(ET Canada or in the media industry) also because I saw him wearing a green t-shirt that I believe a few other people were wearing as well who seem'd like they were working the event. Though Chris didn't look like he was working much at the time - he was just chatting with Rick. Ha ha.]]>

I would have loved to serve as a date to that event! What a view. Can't wait to stop by and check out the breakfast set-up tomorrow a.m. on the way to work.

The suited photo with splash of red and eaton centre in the background is truly fantastic - captures the queasiness and grand-scale of the experience at once.]]>

The area immediately below the platform is roped-off and the public can't be hit by anything that accidentally falls. I was worried about my camera though (and have never held onto it so tightly before!).]]>

What precautions do they take to prevent stuff from flying off the table onto the pedestrians below? I was just checking out the French video and it seemed that with a good gust of wind those oyster shells and bottles of San Pellegrino would be gonners.]]>
