This video left pucker marks in my chair...it's a wooden chair!
El Caminito del Rey (The King's pathway) is a walkway, now fallen into disrepair, pinned along the steep walls of a narrow gorge in El Chorro, near Álora in Málaga , Spain. The walkway has gone many years without maintenance, and is in a highly deteriorated and dangerous state. It is only one meter in width, and over a 700-meter fall, and over time it has also lost its 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 Some parts of the walkway have completely collapsed and have been replaced by a beam and a metallic wire on the wall.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.

See if that link will work- it is frequently my travel destinatino in the winter, with a few good friends. The "fun" can leave you a bit sore now and again.

I cannot really respond to that video without working the profanity filter overtime. I kept going like "Put the camera away and watch where you're going!" About the only other family-friendly sentences that ran through my mind were "Are you kidding me?" and "You are not going to pass someone on that trail!" and I've already expunged about half a dozen adjectives from those sentences, as well as a few interjections and a bit of name-calling.
Um... thanks for that, Zack?
