Real life Indiana Jones path...

Amazing!

Not a fan of heights, but some of the views.....WOW.

I'd sort of liked to have seen inside the "doorway" he passed early on, seems there were many in the sides of the moutains.

And the guy must have had a steady-cam...brilliant focus on something that should have been shaky as all get out.

Must learn more. Thanks for the terrrific link.
 
That's exactly the sort of place I'd want to try going sometime.

....Once it's a little bit repaired, anyway. At least to the point of having a guide cable to hook a carabiner on.....
 
Each time he "tight roped" the beam I was thinking "crazy"!

Still it was a nice piece of footage. i wonder how much was edited to get to 6 minutes?
Also, still I wonder why they don't repair some of it. A little bit at a time.
 
Talk about steady cam. This guy obviously has balls and some amazing balance. Or was he strapped on something? When he just glided across the large opening (with only the steel beam on the left) my eyes grew wide!
 
Fucking nuts, why the fuck was that pathway open to the public in the first place? But it gives up amazing, cringe inducing footage that's for sure.:alienblush:
 
It's not open to the public. Some people go anyway. What are the police going to do, chase them?
 
It looked like there was some sort of safety line to attach to, although that looked pretty flimsy, at best.

God Allmighty. I hope these guys have life insurance!
 
I would love to do that, but I don't think I would be able to make myself go some of those places. I was crapping myself when he went over that last bar. On the others, it looked like there was something he could balance or prop himself up on, but not the last one. :eek:
 
I like the fact that the cameraman wasn't the only lunatic on the trail.

In California, there wouldn't be an option to walk on something like that. Whoever owned the land would have destroyed it in order not to be sued when the inevitable happened. Just putting up No Trespassing signs won't protect you from a major lawsuit. It always kinda amazes me that stuff like that is allowed to exist. No lawyers in Spain, huh? ;)

I guess daring and stupid people would go along the pathway at their disgression, you cannot just brick up an entire canyon and is comforting that people who hurt themselves through their own ineptness cannot vindictively sue innocent bystanders (I heard of a case where a injured career criminal sued a business owner for laying down glass).
