Fire Walking & Broken Glass Walking - £49.00

  • A unique experience to "Extreme Element"
  • Learn the skills necessary to allow you to walk on fire
  • You can even have a go at walking on broken glass
Seen FireWalking on your holidays to the East or on TV – want to give it a go? Well the good news is that you don't need to travel to far-flung places to give it a go. Extreme Element can offer you the chance to experience this extreme activity here in the UK! After a brief instructional seminar you too will be able to walk over hot coals at 1000 to 1200 degrees Fahrenheit. As part of that seminar you will also have the opportunity to walk across a bed of broken glass! Extreme times two!

Experience Content

This experience takes place after sunset – the photographs and video are even more spectacular! You will register and be guided through safety procedures, techniques, and the science behind this seemingly impossible activity. Once the seminar has been completed and before the FireWalk takes place you will need to sign a Liability Release and Assumption of Risk form to signify that you are undertaking the activity voluntarily and are aware of the inherent risks involved in activities with fire!

What you Need to Know

Duration

The FireWalking experience (including the seminar) will last for between an 1 1/2 hours and 2 1/2 hours (depending upon climatic conditions). Most participants will have the opportunity to cross the bed of coals at least twice (again dependent on the weather). You should aim to arrive ten to fifteen minutes before your allotted time, as once the seminar has begun, no further admission is permitted

What to Wear / Equipment

Light coloured clothing makes for better photographs, zip-offs or trousers that easily roll up will avoid them being burned! Ladies – tights are a No-No! Footwear should be easy to remove and replace. Clothing should be suitable the time of year. You do not need to undertake any preparation or hardening of the feet before the event.

Locations

  • Taunton, Somerset

Client Comments

"The laid-back induction and fun approach was excellent, while still getting across the important aspects of the fire walk. A great experience. I’m glad I travelled the 140 miles for it! Jonathon Copp – London"
