The players were suspended 50 meters in the air by a crane as they dined on gourmet seafood. Players who braved the lunch lift included Germans Philipp Kohlschreiber, Benjamin Becker, Florian Mayer and Alexander Waske, Belgians Olivier Rochus, Kristof Vliegen and Steve Darcis and Czechs Martin Damm and Jan Hajek. Duesseldorf master chef Pasqualino Palmieri served light, Italian dishes for 22 people above the roof of Heinrich Heine University. An 80-ton crane hoisted the open gondola up into the air. The guests wore seat-belts, of course, as they sat around the dining table. Though Benjamin Becker had "butterflies in my stomach" he was enthusiastic about the whole activity. Becker said: "It's a completely different way of eating when the gondola turns and the wind blows through it..."
