Councillors have been break up on whether or not to approve the challenge, however Appearing Mayor Mark Hammel used his casting vote to green-light the event.
Cr Gates mentioned the challenge was out of character for the world and would tower over the world.

“The one factor the planners might examine it to within the space is the Large Drop at Dreamworld.
“I agree that we have now to go upwards, however this improvement might be 50 metres taller than anything within the space.”
