Personally? Nope, not worth the trouble to get to it. If we're at WDW, I'm not going to be interested in going up in some big ferris wheel that is nowhere near the parks. Come to think of it, I doubt I'd be in a big hurry to ride it if it was IN one of the parks.

I agree.
The tethered ballon might be nice, IF it were in WDW!

I think it fits perfectly in the circus that is Orlando.

I can't imagine the protein spills on either the wheel or the balloon....

While I'd rather eat nails that go up on either <<shudder>>, my husband would probably do it as would all the tourists who don't stay on Disney property. It doesn't work for my family, but it would for many others.

The London Eye is brilliant and has the best view of London on a clear day. It would not work in Orlando because their is not the skyline view of a big city like London. The actual ride is very slow and gentle, not at all scarey.
