Post by: Tonji on May 14, 2008, 01:38:29 PM If you ever go on holiday to the French or Italian Alps, & you've got a head for heights try these trips. Via Ferrata's require no climbing experience & are a real buzz!!!!

Title: Re: Would you walk on this? Post by: Horneris on May 14, 2008, 04:30:32 PM All i was thinking was, how much could i get someone to bet me that i could do this.
Could i get £5,000 from Flushy to video it and do it......... and then i saw that they had to walk over pipes!!! Just pipes not even a path. Id rather burn that do that. Title: Re: Would you walk on this? Post by: Royal Flush on May 14, 2008, 05:34:27 PM Could i get £5,000 from Flushy to video it and do it......... Only if you did it in fancy dress!

If you're gonna fall and die you might aswell fall and die in an elephant costume or something. Least i would die for a reason (in Bauer's words!). LOL. Title: Re: Would you walk on this?

Title: Re: Would you walk on this? Post by: ifm on May 14, 2008, 07:19:15 PM Did you see the wimp with the harness on clipped to the wire?
Not only a wimp but a little dim? Does he actually believe that would hold his weight? Title: Re: Would you walk on this? Post by: Poppet7 on May 14, 2008, 11:15:54 PM I saw this a few weeks ago, I don't think I could ever imagine doing it, not even for a million pounds! Makes me feel sick just watching.
Title: Re: Would you walk on this? Post by: nirvana on May 15, 2008, 08:01:12 AM That's terrifying - when i see things like this I can't help thinking about the fact that some people were up there building it ! How they do that ?
I wanna see 'The making of....' Title: Re: Would you walk on this? Post by: Solver on May 15, 2008, 08:33:25 AM As with others I saw the scenery a the start and thought it would be worth the fear of heights. Then I saw the pipe sections and how thin the concrete was when there was holes in the path.

Post by: Acidmouse on May 15, 2008, 11:40:35 PM Strange I showed this to work collegue at Uni and he has been there. He was with his wife so they didn't go past the bottom bit. But if you find other videos of this you can see you have to walk along a railway line that has no room either side when a train comes, so you have to time your walk. Just as you enter the train tunnel the path starts on your left.
