This is what happens sometimes when you try to get upside-down but don't make it all the way. It doesn't look that graceful in person but it can make a great photo (and entertain your tour mates)!

10. Upside down:

The most advanced and arguably the most fun way to zip, your guides will give you full instruction and personally demonstrate how to get upside down.

Once you’ve mastered getting upside down you can try out the many variations, grab a leg or both ankles, touch your toes, do the running man, do the splits, try some sit-ups or anything else you can think of—we love seeing new moves!
