A friend just sent me this.
It may be old news to all the Spain lovers but it was amazing to me.

Wow.

Two things come immediately to mind:
Who was brave enough to build that path?
And who was brave enough to walk on it NOW? While filming!

Thanks, Jan. That was hair-raising!

Aargh! No! I should not have watched this before bed - I'm going to be clinging to the headboard on my bed all night.

Are these people goats? The path was more hole than path and the cameraman had to balance along some rusty looking girder for parts of the time - and overtake people !!. The 'safety' rope looked none too robust - my idea of a seriously bad time (but riveting - I watched all the way to the end!)

Thanks for that one (I think - see how the night goes)

Yikes! I was amazed at how fast the hiker was moving along. And there was little to no hesitation doing the balance beam walk across the broken up sections!

I thought it was a cool video too! Thanks for posting it.

OMG

I wish I could do that!!

I can't take all the credit (what credit )
My friend LynK, who sometimes posts on the Italy Forum, sent the video to me.

What was really scary to me was that it seemed like he/she wasn't even attached to the safety line. Yikes!

I wondered about that - it certainly looked that way at several points!

OMG! My hands and feet are sweating..never in a million years..

Dios Mio! Never! Never! And if someone drugged me and somehow managed to get me to the ultimate destination, I'd have to die there because I would not be able to descend!

Whoever that was was walking fast! Did you see the one guy using a harness and clipping himself to the lines? I couldn't even do it that way!

My heart is racing,
