This idea really has a lot of thought put into it, despite the crude and childish drawing accompanying it.

Does Elon Musk know about this idea yet?

Yeah, I'm not sure more than one full shower of thought was put into it.

I mean, it sounds amazing.

I think you should just invent a better version of these:

The arc required to not pin you to the wall from centripetal force would probably require a radius that would be many times the total vertical shaft length.

And dont even think of testing this on dogs.

Mountains might not be either. If you want 30 seconds, you'll need about 5km of height plus the vertical associated with your "regain gravity" curve.

Just sign up for one of those zero-G plane rides that follow a parabola. You get like fifteen 30 second long zero-G stints for $10K.

The real issue funding. Has the lip balm empire grown to the point it can fund this endeavour?

My question is where are the fins to lower wind resistance and a racing stripe that I feel would be pretty sharp too?

Parabolic flights reproduce gravity-free conditions in an aircraft by alternating upward and downward arcs interspersed with level flight. They provide a microgravity environment for scientists to conduct research without going into space.

I'm honestly curious what your reaction would be like if you could get an exoskeleton to reduce the effort required to meander around.

You should add exoskeleton equipped employees to your idea.
