Melissa and Beth jumped into the express lift that took them up to the 88th floor (288m above ground). They walked around the observation deck taking in the awe inspiring views of Melbourne. However, the highlight of the trip was about to come when they decided to go out on "The Edge" experience, which is going into a glass cube which projects 3 metres out from the building and you are suspended almost 300 metres above the ground!
