In July last year, the attraction was featured on the French television channel TF1's flagship news program Le 20 Heures. The segment showed visitors using steel handrails, foot rungs, and fixed safety cables to climb safely with a guide.

"Foreign visitors come every day. They tell us it's incredibly thrilling, and many bring friends to try it again," Wang said.
