ROOOOOOOOLF at the first missing floor @ 1:25... I was like: Could it be more ghetto and dangerous than that!?

Then I saw the rest of the path... OH! SHIT!

Stange when more dangerous the path you use is, more beautiful the travel gets. :-)

Stupid humans XD

OK, I`m not scared of heights at all, and not to sound like one of those queers with the "No Fear" stickers, but I am pretty balsy too, but for fuks sake, doing that, AND looking through a camera has to throw your balnce off so bad. Holy fuk. Anyway, incredible video - good job.

This would make a great level in a video game! I kept wanting to double jump every time he would get to a hole in the path.

And that guy only hooks up his safety line at the particularly dodgy bits--you can tell how he delays, right before fucking BALANCE BEAMING across a GORGE.

In person that would rock. But when the camera is way off side, it has the fucked and out of control careening feeling of some dreams, where you are almost flying, but it`s more about falling. Don`t like that off side camera one bit.

This definitely must be some of the inspiration behind the Myst series. I want to go there.

While watching that my balls retreated inside my groin. Hence I would not have the balls to walk that.

In the UK that path would be fenced off an no-one allowed near it.

The walkway has now gone many years without maintenance, and is in a highly deteriorated and dangerous state. It is one meter (3 ft) in width, and is over 700 feet (200 m) above the river. Nearly all of the path has no handrail. Some parts of the walkway have completely collapsed and have been replaced by a beam and a metallic wire on the wall. Many people have lost their lives on the walkway in recent years. After four people died in two accidents in 1999 and 2000, the local government closed the entrances. However, adventurous tourists still find their way into the walkway.

The regional government of Andalusia budgeted in 2006 for a restoration plan[1] estimated at € 7 million.

The funny thing is, if you WERE to do this and accidentally lose your balance,...

The Split-second before your life flashed before your eyes, you`d KNOW you were Fucked beyond Fucked!!

I wonder how many people have actually experienced THAT sensation?!?!

It would have been kinda of funny(but sad) if the guy he snuck up on, got freaked out and fell over the side.

This is amazing, it must have taken a hundred years to carve into the mountain like that

^ A parachute? Chances are it wouldn`t open enough before you got slammed against the rocky slope on the way down, then your body would get nicely raped up and ready for shipment to the morgue. :)
