Clenching your butthole for 6 minutes and 30 seconds in terror = religious experience
 
Ok I just was going through some old favs of mine and wanted to share.



It elicits such mixed emotions from me, calm and fear, awe and wonderment.

I show this to people and they often seem to just stop breathing, kinda like when you're watching an action movie and the actors plunge underwater for a tense fight scene or something.

I love it :)

ive seen this before. This walk is in Andalucia in Spain and is now closed to the public due to the dilapidated state it is in and the deaths of numerous people over the lasy few years.

still, its one heck of a video. the way he brushes past the other climbers is freakish

Holy crap!!!!:eek:

Beautiful, though.

I'm really afraid of heights and just watching the video made me uneasy. That is CRAZY!

lulu_mq 02-18-2010 12:02 PM

WOW! As amazing as that video is, I nearly past out! haha. Shauk, your right about watching it and not breathing! LOL!

At 1:42, 2:28, 4:45-4:50, when he walks on a beam to get to the other side is amazing, especially with the amount of balance one would have to do to not slip. I would not be able to do that at all.

At 3:25-3:30, I noticed one individual using a device to latch on to the wall, smart idea. The camera man appears to just casually walk through the part without any issues.

:eek: No way would I be doing that.

Wes Mantooth 02-18-2010 01:24 PM

Yeah I've seen this before too, absolutely NUTS! I bet when you've finished the rush must be incredible though, kind of like skydiving or something.

Part of me would love doing this and another would be terrified.

CinnamonGirl 02-18-2010 01:59 PM

I totally want to do this now. Apparently, though, the path is about 3 feet wide...and 350 feet above the river.



...yeah, I still want to do it.

World's King 02-18-2010 02:10 PM

Cinn, I'm there with ya. I'll even try to ride my unicycle the whole way.

Vizzini 02-18-2010 10:23 PM

Absolutely stunning. Whats the story with the path though? Why was it built originally?

CinnamonGirl 02-18-2010 10:29 PM

After seeing the video, I researched a little bit, and I've been playing Chasm. I like their explanation (although you can find more formal and detailed explanations elsewhere...)


Quote:

One day in 1921 King Alfonso XIII of Spain decided he wanted to take a peek at his new Hydroelectric dam. The prisoners had been working on the dam at the top of El Chorro Gorge for simply ages, and now he wanted to know how they were going.

So he called up his dam building flunky and told them "Olé! I'm coming to visit, so get those builder boys into gear."

The flunky replied "Olé!" and hung up the phone.

Turning around the King's flunky said to his flunky "Olé! We're going ok with the dam, but we don't have any way for the King to check it all out, and there's no way Alfonso's going to swim the through the resevoir to look at his dam."

The flunky's flunky said "Olé!"

So they decided to build a narrow path along the side of El Chorro, 100 metres above the river, leading from the start of the chasm, to where the dam was... waaaaay back up the top.

They hammered planks of wood; a foot wide and a couple of feet long, into the stone. The path would sit on top of the planks- just wide enough to walk along, but no wider.

Eventually, with a lot of hard work, and more than a few practical jokes (hanging each other over the edge, that kind of thing), the path was ready for Alfonso XIII to take a look at his dam.

The flunky said "Olé! You know, we should call this path Camino del Ray (which means 'Path of the King')"

His flunky said "Olé! I know what it means, I speak Spanish."

So Alfonso came out and looked at his dam: "Olé!, looking good boys, nice work on the dam, but ah, that pathway, don't you think it's a little bit dodgy? You could slip and take a nasty fall, I know I'm never walking along it again."


The basics of the story are true, about the path, the chasm, the dam, and the King. But the dialogue is made up.

Dave Jones and Jill McLeod visited El Chorro in 2000, took lots of photos, and about a year after they got back, Dave decided it'd be great to base a game around El Chorro and Camino del Rey. So they did.

Shauk 02-18-2010 11:38 PM

Olé!

I'm not rescuing you if you fall. Sorry. Leave the unicycle at home, then maybe.

twilightfoix 02-26-2010 04:25 AM

so these dam builders built a dam 3ft wide pathway starting from the ground and what? hung off the 3 ft wide edge and hammered a new log into the cliff? no seriously? how do you build a a tiny pathway that high up a sheer cliff face.

p.s. Olé!

Fire 03-03-2010 10:34 PM

that looks like some of the funky climby falley parts of more than a few FPS games I have played through the years.... I fall off those just fine thanks, and to hell with building one circa 1921

neveragain 03-04-2010 01:34 PM

OMG no freakin way..... scared of heights and that just caused me to about cry .... just looking at the walkway and the cracks and breaks in it just really got me

sapiens 03-04-2010 02:15 PM

I was expecting this:
