Carrick-a-rede rope bridge
This is a major tourist attraction on the Irish north coast. The brochure calls it a "precarious" rope bridge but its pretty tame really. Apparently there has been a rope bridge here for centuries to allow access to the small island to catch the local schools of salmon which swim past at various times of the year. The current bridge takes about 10 seconds to cross (max 8 at a time!) and has no doubt been thoroughly checked out by fun police, but the surrounding views are excellent.
