Where are some of the strangest places you have solved a cube?

In terms of isolated locations I have solved a cube at French pass and cape palliter. French Pass I went on for a school camp. It near if not the most northern point of the South Island while cape palliter is the southern most point of the north island.
 
I feel like we need to start something like... Extreme cubing, where we make a point to solve a puzzle on top of a building or hanging off a cliff. I might be going to Seattle in a few months so im going to do it on top of the space needle.
 
I cubed while bunjee jumping and the cube didnt drop off. Then underwater while snorkelling and on top of my 18 floor buildings water tank. Very windy and for a moment I thought I was falling off but had it under control and thats it :)

Not a bad idea. I just made a Tumblr.

Any interesting story you want to attach to the photo/video:

note: It doesn't have to be too wild or crazy. Even a cool outdoorsy photo, or a photo taken in an exotic country would be fine, or even if it's just a funny place to cube, like on the roof of your house or something.

that's awesome. hope it catches on. feel free to make your own thread for that, just keep me apart of it :P
 
Last friday, I went to Six Flags Magic Mountain and did some solves on Goliath, Drop of Doom, and Superman. That was pretty fun.
 
Not as much in the theme of extreme cubing, but the strangest place I've ever solved is probably Treblinka. Allow me to explain.

I was on a class trip to Treblinka, and after hearing stories upon stories of the brutalities that occurred there, I got so angry I was shaking, and couldn't say the prayer for the members of my family who were killed there as I had hoped to. I asked my teacher, and he said it was ok to go off to the side and solve the cube to calm down. I did, and it calmed me down enough that I was able to say the prayer for my family. Without a doubt, the most meaningful solve of my life.

If we're sticking to extreme cubing only, about a month ago, I solved a cube on top of Masada (I should have OH-ed it on the way up, though).
 
Not really that strange, but in my car. I was waiting for someone, it was a really nice sunny hot day and had my window down, occasionally looking up and watching people go by, it felt a lot more enjoyable and different from solving indoors.
