Thrill seekers risk their lives a taking a walk along 'world's most-dangerous path'




Teetering along a crumbling walkway over 100 metres high, a group of intrepid climbers carefully inch their way across what has been dubbed the most dangerous path in the world.
And they're not alone. Adrenaline-junkies have been flocking to southern Spain to experience the 110-year-old El Caminito Del Rey before work begins to refurbish it next tear.
Companies have now begun offering unofficial tours after a video of a walker tackling the hair-raising trail went viral on YouTube.

And you don't need to be an experienced climber either, the only requirements are thatwalkers should be at least twelve years old and have a good head for heights.
The trail, also known as the King's Pathway, was originally built in 1905 for workers to travel between two hydroelectric power plants but was closed-off in 2000 after two walkers fell to their deaths.
It snakes its way along cliff edges high up in El Chorro Gorge, thirty miles from Malaga. 
Much of the one-metre-wide walkway is crumbing away with rusting supports, gaping holes, no handrails and sections that have completely fallen down.
A makeshift wire has now been attached to the rock face which walkers and climbers can clip themselves on to in order to have some degree of security - but many still prefer not to use any safety equipment at all.
Work is now due to start on an 8.3 million project to make the pathway safe again and attract more tourists to the area.

No walk in the park: The final stages of the path have fallen through so walkers must abseil down around 100 metres in order to complete the trail

It will take three years to re-construct and will see the pathway completely rebuilt with hand rails, protective barriers, lighting and a visitors centre..
One climber on the route last week said: 'It's a shame they're going to fix the path.
'It will sanitise it too much and take the thrill out of it. 
'It's free for us to go on right now but I'm sure they'll make us pay to use it in the future.'

Meet The Real Life Sky Walker


On top of the world: Daring photographer scales sky-high buildings to take stomach-churning shots of the Earth below,

Meet the real-life sky walker - the photographer who risks his life scaling sky-high buildings to take incredible photos of the world below.
Russian student Marat Dupri, 19, bought a Canon camera 18 months ago and immediately decided to start taking shots of beautiful views.
He began climbing onto the roofs of houses to capture spectacular views from the air, before deciding to go to even greater heights.
Together with his fearless friends and models, he has sneaked past guards at some of Moscow's tallest structures - to produce incredible yet stomach-churning images.
Scared of heights? Russian student Marat Dupri doesn't seem to be, as he photographs amazing views from sky-high structures around Moscow

The incredible photos show the teens walking in the sky, as they perch hundreds of feet in the air on pylons, or walking on the edge of a high building with NO safety harnesses.
Marat said: ‘When I am on the roof I have a feeling that the whole world is by my feet.
‘All my problems and trouble are left somewhere down. The height exhilarates me. I am enjoying with my home town views. It gives me energy and fills with enthusiasm to make new and great shots.
 
‘I had always been interested in photography and a couple of years ago,  I bought my first proper camera.
‘I wanted to try and get the most spectacular pictures I could - pictures like no-one else had taken before.
‘I began by taking pictures from my own roof, but soon I wanted to get bigger and better pictures.
Quick learner: Dupri only bought his Canon camera 18 months ago but seems to be getting into the swing of using it and finding artistic inspiration

‘So I went with my friend to the top of a 33 storey building.  It was about 120 metres high and we went right out to the edge and I started taking pictures.
‘It was such a thrill, we couldn't wait to do it again.
‘I've taken a lot of the photos by sneaking past guards and getting access to structures illegally.
‘But I think the risks are worth it to take such amazing pictures.’
Marat's incredible pictures show several of his friends balancing on the very edge of beams hundreds of feet above the ground.
They are not attached to any safety harnesses and could plummet to earth at any time.

One photo shows the teens scaling one of Russia's seven Soviet skyscrapers, using a ladder to scale the side of the building.
And another shows his friend perched at the side of a monument to Peter I, 215 metres in the air.
The teens even took photos on the top of the Moscow tower - one of the highest buildings in Europe.
Marat added: ‘The building is 300 metres up in the air and it was really difficult to take photos because of the wind. I had to bend right over and just take a picture straight down.
‘That was the most dangerous photo I have taken, it was pretty scary.
‘I've also taken pictures from a 270 metre high radio mast that was still in use.
‘I got a huge adrenalin rush from taking the pictures, but I had a severe headache for several days after - I think it was from radiation.
‘It was worth it to get such amazing photos though.’

The London Eye


It took seven years and the skills of hundreds of people from five countries to make the London Eye.

Each rotation takes about 30 minutes, meaning a capsule travels at a stately 26cm per second,
or 0.9km (0.6 miles) per hour - twice as fast as a tortoise sprinting; allowing passengers to step on
and off without the wheel having to stop.

image
You can see around 40KM (25 miles) from the top as far as Windsor Castle on a clear day.

image
Each of the 32 capsules weighs 10 tonnes.
To put that figure into perspective, it's the same weight as 1,052,631 pound coins!
