"I was absolutely terrified, my knees and legs went to jelly”
Amanda expressed her fear after completing the challenge, confessing to Heart Radio, "I should tell you now, they dared me. They said, 'if you go up one more iron sort of curly bit more, we will have gone higher than anyone basically!'"

She proudly added, "Wing Commander Adam Collins from the Red Arrows is the only person to have reached a similar height, and now I have surpassed him! Honestly, I was absolutely terrified, my knees and legs went to jelly."
Despite her fear, Amanda trusted in the climbing equipment, admitting, "I've never fainted in my life, but when I reached the top, I suddenly thought, 'I'm going to pass out!'"

She appealed for support, saying, "Any donations are greatly appreciated. This challenge is for Global's Make Some Noise, and it's honestly the most terrifying thing I've ever done. Please give what you can."
This daring feat is just one of the five challenges Amanda and her team are undertaking this week to raise funds for Heart's charity, Make Some Noise. They have a total of five hours to complete all five tasks.
