You step onto the first platform and the city drops away beneath you: Table Mountain’s sandstone cliffs to your back, False Bay glinting to the east, and the suburbs folding into the Constantia valley below. The wind tests your balance, the guides click your harness, and the cable pulls taut — the next line dares you forward.
