Sitting and eating on a wooden table suspended in the middle of a waterfall

Brazil: Two American tourists sit on a set of tables and chairs suspended above a roaring waterfall, enjoying food and drinks while admiring the magnificent natural scenery.

A Brazilian adventure tour company offers thrill-seekers a new experience: enjoying a picnic on a wooden table suspended 90 meters above the Cascata da Sepultura waterfall in the southern state of Rio Grande do Sul.

The image quickly went viral online after a pair of American tourists posted the video on their personal page in mid-August. They said they discovered the service while searching for something special in Brazil.

In the video, Christianna Hurt, 28, and her boyfriend sat at a wooden table, enjoying snacks of vegetables, fruit, small sandwiches and crackers, sipping red wine. The table and chairs were suspended from two cables that ran from either side of the mountain. Christianna said the way they were brought near the waterfall was like a zipline.

The American tourists had to walk a short distance to reach the zip line built at the edge of the waterfall. Here, they sat on a prepared table, put on a safety harness and then the tour company staff pushed the table along the zip line until they were suspended next to the water.

The experience lasts 15 minutes and costs $450 for two people. In addition, visitors will receive photos taken by a drone. The two visitors said that the important thing is not the food but the dining experience amidst the majestic natural scenery.

Visitors don't necessarily have to sit down to eat; they can choose to relax in hammocks suspended over the waterfall or go bungee jumping.

Many people said they were "dizzy" and "sweaty" when they saw the two American tourists participating in this experience. However, Christianna and her boyfriend found it interesting, describing it as "an unconventional picnic at the most beautiful waterfall".
