The world’s longest urban zip line opens in Dubai

Dubai is offering those brave enough the opportunity to take a ride on the world’s longest zip line.

Skydive Dubai has just unveiled their new XLine, which is double the length of the city's previous record-breaking zip line.

The 170-metre-high and 3,280-ft long XLine will be opening this week in Dubai’s Marina neighbourhood. Thrill-seekers can take in the best views of the city as they w whizz pass the Marina's tallest skyscrapers at 80 kilometres an hour.

The adventure starts at the top of one of the Marina’s towners and lands near the Dubai Marina Mall.

For those who would rather do it with a partner, the first time ever, couples will be able to experience the thrill together and ride zip lines running adjacent to one another. 

Check out the daunting experience above.
