    Not my cup of tea. I love thrillseeking... but that looks like I'd have about a 50/50 chance of ending my life there.Crazy stuff.

Construction of the walkway took four years and it was finished in 1905.In 1921 King Alfonso XIII crossed the walkway for the inauguration of the dam Conde del Guadalhorce and it became known by its present name. In some places the walkway has collapsedThe walkway has now gone many years without maintenance, and is in a highly deteriorated and dangerous state. It is one meter (3 feet and 3 inches) in width, and is over 300 meters (984 feet) above the river. Nearly all of the path has no handrail. Some parts of the concrete walkway have completely collapsed and all that is remaining is the steel beam originally in place to hold it up and the wire that follows most of the path. One can latch onto a safety-wire to keep from falling, though it can't hold much weight. Several people have lost their lives on the walkway in recent years; after four people died in two accidents in 1999 and 2000[1], the local government closed the entrances. However, many adventurous tourists still find their way onto the walkway to explore it.

    That path is way too sketchy.The concrete looks like it would not hold a person's body weight and was constructed by an amateur.

    Did anyone notice what looked like a white rope on the side of the mountain? I wonder if that's to hold onto or something.
