High Adventure: Safety Innovations in Aerial Parks

The video explores safe adventure activities like tree climbing and Via Ferrata, emphasizing the technology and safety measures involved. It explains the importance of cable tension in zip lines and the use of lifelines and energy absorbers in climbing. The video also addresses acrophobia, demonstrating how virtual reality can help overcome the fear of heights.

What is the primary reason for not drilling into trees during adventure installations?

• To reduce installation costs

• To make the installation process faster

• To maintain the tree's health

• To prevent the tree from falling

How does the continuous lifeline system enhance safety during adventure activities?

• By increasing the length of the course

• By reducing the weight of the equipment

• By preventing the cable from detaching

• By allowing faster movement

What is the role of cable tension in zip-lining?

• It affects the color of the cable

• It determines the speed of descent

• It changes the length of the zip line

• It alters the material of the cable

What is the purpose of the energy absorber in Via Ferrata?

• To increase climbing speed

• To cushion the impact of a fall

• To make the equipment lighter

• To enhance grip on the rock

How is the lifeline secured in Via Ferrata to ensure safety?

• It is attached to a tree

• It is glued to the rock every few meters

• It is tied to the climber's waist

• It is held by the climber's hands

What part of the brain is responsible for the fear of heights?

• Hippocampus

• Amygdala

• Cerebellum

• Thalamus

How does virtual reality help in overcoming acrophobia?

• By simulating real-life climbing experiences

• By gradually exposing individuals to heights

• By providing a distraction from fear

• By offering a physical workout
