Wow! I grabbed on to the desk a few times.

El Chorro is host to one of the most dangerous walkways in the world, built by workers to transport materials between the Chorro and Gaitanejo Falls
Whenever I see things like this I always think about the people that built them. Then, can you imagine carrying a load of material over it?

Why would anyone do that to themselves for pleasure?

All I could think of was that the safety cable was made by the low bidder!

It made me weak in the knees. and I am sitting down.

The path was closed in 2000, but there still are some who disregard the barriers at either end and risk their lives. WHY is my question!!!

gomoho 09-25-2013 06:24 PM

made me sick to my stomach, I had to stop watching it.
I couldn't believe how many other people the guy with the camera came upon on the way. So not just one nut but multiple nuts. You notice they were all guys.

I thought of that too, especially when they got to the part where the path is missing and only the metal bar is left to walk on .................. What about the part where the path has huge cracks all over it, someone is going to be standing on that when it gives way ..............
