Madness on Brighton Pier

You'd never find me doing something as crazy as this!

Two people are strapped in, lifted to a great height over Brighton pier, lulled into a false sense of security by the slow ascent, and then the crane like device travels at top speed seaward. My language when I was standing underneath it was unrepeatable - goodness knows what's screamed when the people up there start their high speed descent.

Maybe something like: *?!#?@% *(£!

Brighton Pier

For the next few days I'm going to post a few images from Brighton Pier.

It's a bit of a crazy place and you have to be in the mood. But visitors as well as residents like to give it a go from time to time.

You'll find deckchairs, fish and chips, doughnuts, scary rides, beer - a whole collection of British seaside past and present.

To kick things off, here are two girls enjoying one of the covered rides on offer.
